This mediocre-at-best (in the opinion of most people that have heard it) top 3 Alternative smash is going for adds at Pop on January 19.
This could either pull a Trapt or not make the chart at all. I'll go in between, with a pull towards the latter, and say it'll peak at #45.

I doubt it'll chart at all. Probably peaking around #59.

Oh. God. No.
I hope it won't cross-over at all. This song is just awful. At least their newer one, "Just Like You" isn't anywhere as bad.

This is pretty catchy, so it'll probably get some of the slightly alternative-leaning stations, if it's promoted well enough. I'll say it'll peak at #28.
Although, I must be honest, I kinda want it to do really well just to see other people getting mad at its performance. I can be vindictive like that. ;)

Yea they are from Toronto and aren't they Chad Kroeger of Nickelback's brainchild? Signed to his label, or produced by them, something along those lines

I think this will follow Trapt into the top 10.

It has 22 spins, 19 on WBBO which plays several Alternative songs that aren't that popular on CHR-Pop. WBBO is in the Top 10 leaders for "Feeling This," "The Scientist," and "Hey Girl" also.

This is one of the three worst songs on the alternative chart right now.(the other two being Korn's latest song and Godsmack's latest re-release of "Awake"). I'm sure pop will play it though, since they love this kind of crap. I'll say #19.

Okay, well it's not that bad, but I don't think it will have much affect on the pop charts.

I have to admit this song is a bit catchy, could do alright. I am not going to say it is a good song though.

There has always been such a strange science behind how Alternative singles seem to crossover. Plenty are promising to hit crossing over, then again sometimes they are absolutely ignored, like "Times Like These" and a number of the Red Hot Chili Peppers singles.
Right now, I believe it is hard to openly predict, as I think I can't really predict well until this singles pre-impact and impact weeks! That can tell us something of how open CHR/Pop is to Three Days Grace.
In my opinion, this single is bland enough to have potential to hit on CHR/Pop and go Top 10, but it can also well barely chart CHR/Pop. I believe it can peak at #7 or #8 if CHR/Pop respects them in the same manner as Trapt, otherwise it'll peak at #42 or so.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton
