"It's Not Your Fault" just missed the top 50, and "My Friends Over You" barely made the top 60. A few of their '04 singles peaked in the 70's as well.

I love NFG. This isn't one of my favorites, but I do like it a lot!

Great news! This just made my day! I love NFG! One of my top 3 favorite bands.  Don't expect it to do anything sadly. I can't believe NFG never got a CHR hit. It seems like this is picking up at Alternative right now. :) |

Bland, typical, teeny pop/rockish as many others. Maybe nice to play it as background to do some laundry or things like that, but not really excited to have another filler like this being successful at Pop.

This isn't even in the top 50 at Alternative, but apparently that's not a requirement now for pop-punk bands (We the Kings, White Tie Affair, The Cab, Boys Like Girls, etc.).

Actually, the new album "Not Without A Fight" is their hardest and back to roots album. And it really sucks that NFG never scored a CHR hit! Coming Home was a perfect pop album, filled with 5/6 songs that had pop radio appeal.
Lol, and who doesn't want to be successful. With an hit on CHR, your music reaches a larger audience and that's great. Imo, the term "sell out" is so dumb and meaningless.

I'll sound like a crazy fan but it's funny to see people saying what you said. I take a look at the Mainstream Top 40 and I see Disney fabricated music like Jonas Brothers or Miley Cyrus, I see those talentless ringtone rappers like Flo Rida or Soulja Boy and I see bunch of divas, that achieve success 'cause of their good looks and that can't even write their own songs. |

I think there are "fillers" in all genres, though.
I don't think that only because you do "rock" music, you have better talent than others.
You can have fillers in Disney, Rap, Dance, AC, etc. IMO.
I agree that generic music is also Flo Rida, Soulja Boy, Jonas Brothers... but I would say the same for We The Kings and this one, among other Pop Rock songs that I have heard recently.

It's not like I ever said that. Of course there are brilliant artists in all genres but you will probably not find most of them on CHR... |
