Yeah, as much as I would like for them to get a third chart topper here, I think the timing with Muse and AIC is gonna shut 'em out. On the other hand, it's not like this is underperforming either way, so no complaints.

"Kings of Leon" must be #1. "Notion" is a great track, tho Muse is just so awesome as well...

3 1 KINGS OF LEON Notion 1552 1524 28 6.478 Not sure it'll be able to hang on. It may have benefited some from Labor Day by being less new than the other songs near it. We'll see how things shake out the next few days, but I expect Muse will keep the top spot for a second week.

#1 on Billboard's modern rock chart. That secures the hat-trick. Mr. Ziff was due to get one right anyway.

Don't give him too much credit. It wasn't that hard to predict.

Well....I don't know what the next single is here, but apparently they're now sending "Sex On Fire" to pop after "Use Somebody." While it obviously made no sense at the time that they didn't send "Sex On Fire" to pop, the song may do even better following on the heals of "Use Somebody" going to #1. Their plan may have just worked wonders.

Their plan may have just worked wonders. They did send "Sex on Fire" to CHR as the first single from this album around the time "Use Somebody" was peaking on Alt. It tanked, and they quickly moved on to "Use Somebody." Not really crazy about sending it again when they need to release something here soon anyway and could just have the same single at both formats, but eh, as you say, "Sex on Fire" should have better luck this time around.

Haha. I would prefer "Crawl" or "Closer", but "Manhattan" would probably do nicely nonetheless. Nothing has been confirmed yet, 'Young Money', but as I previously said... it's been getting radio airplay. "Notion" also gathered airplay like this before officially going for adds so, "Manhattan" looks like a done deal at the moment.

"Crawl" has more plays overall at alt/rock radio this week than "Manhattan" does, but "Crawl" has no adds whereas it looks like "Manhattan" is on the rise. Granted, neither song has 20 plays even on the 4 rock radio formats combined (I'm including AAA given Kings of Leon gets some love there).

The "new" single is about to fall below the "old" one.
8 13 KINGS OF LEON Notion RCA/RMG 1126 1350 -224 17 14 KINGS OF LEON Use Somebody RCA/RMG 1031 1000 31
How often does an earlier single go recurrent after a later one? I know it happened with Incubus's "Wish You Were Here" and "Nice to Know You". And the Foo Fighters did it with "The Pretender" and "Long Road to Ruin" last year. Any other instances?

On active rock, Mudvayne recently did that with "Scarlet Letters" and "Do What You Do."

Didn't that happen with "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" and "Kristy, Are You Doing Ok?" If not, it was close. And for awhile I thought it might happen with "Sex on Fire" and "Use Somebody."
