This appears to be the song that half believe (like myself) will be a huge hit, while the other half believe it won't be touched up on here on CHR/Pop.
So, can this Australian quartet jet from Alternative to the top of the charts, or will they be grounded long before take-off?
Personally, though this has an old-school rock sound, I believe with all the hype surrounding this song on various ads from movies to Apple and surging album sales, not to mention the irresistable guitar hook, this will be a suprise hit of 2004, probably THE suprise hit.
My Prediction: #5
Sincerely, Noah Eaton

This must be the tenth different topic done on this song. Anyway, I so wish this song would go away. I don't see the big deal to it. Well, something tells me that if nothing is stopping it on alternative, then the same thing will happen on pop.

Wow, I loathe this song. Ths guitar riff is a rip-off of "Last Nite" by the Strokes, which is a rip-off of Iggy Pop's "Lust for Life", which is a rip off of a ton of old songs before it.
I hope this doesn't come anywhere near the chart

It sounds somewhat familiar. I don't like it.

This has to be one of the worst songs this year.

Wow! Four of you predict it won't even make the Top 50. Very interesting how the predictions vary for this song.
I truly feel this single is going to take off and go Top 10, probably being a slow builder at first but then accelerating once it reaches the Top 40.

Has anyone noticed that it's in the Top 20 on All 4 Rock charts?
Now I think this might hit the Top 30 on Pop.

Those Adds are really beginning to pile in there, as they got 38 on CHR/Pop on the last Radio And ecords update, quite strong for a start.

This is such an unhatable song. I don't see what the problem is.

And another thing, there's just no way this isn't gonna chart. I hope it does well, too. I hope it pisses as many people off as "Headstrong" did.

I hate how you always place your taste in music above other peoples taste. "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" absolutely sucks, it's so unoriginal and it rips off 300 songs made before it. I hope "With You" gets to #1 so it can piss you off.

I hate when people say songs/bands are ripoffs of other bands just because they have the same kind of style. That's stupid, it's almost unavoidable to not "rip-off" another artist these days because, well, music has been around for a very long time.

I didn't say they sound similar because they have the same style a music. Learn how to read. The guitar and drums are exactly the same as many songs before it It's a blatant rip-off.

I'm sure they didn't look at The Strokes music and said "hey that's a cool drum beat, lets copy it!," that's stupid. Besides I just listened to "Last Night" and then listened to "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" and the drums and guitar sounded nothing a like ?_? I also hate the Strokes and love the Jets. So. . .

I just made this sound clip. I put a clip of "Last Nite" by the Strokes, Jet "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" and IGgy Pop's "Lust For Life", which came first. I still stand by what I originally said. It's a rip-off. Listen to the clip and then come and tell me they sound nothing alike. They all have the same exact drum pattern and the same exact guitar melody (right-click and save as...) members.rogers.com/telephony64/Jet_strokes_Iggy.mp3

"Are You Gonna Be My Girl" has made its first appearance in the Top 20 Greatest Gaining Singles on CHR/Pop with a +240 bullet.
Expect this single to likely appear in the Top 10 Most Gaining singles within the next two weeks.
My Prediction of a #5 peak remains standing.
Sincerely, Noah Eaton
