And it's already starting to lose steam. Hopefully it picks back up soon.

Well it's been on the chart for a decent amount of time. It just hasn't gotten that far. It's amazing that "Troublemaker" made it so high up the chart as a second single and this is faring so poorly. That said, this song does sound like less of a hit to my ears.

I'm gonna go WAY out on a limb here and say that it's the title that is keeping this from getting more spins. The song is musically catchy as hell but the "I'm Your Daddy" chorus would have some detractors who are not willing to put it out in their market especially markets that have more of a "moral base" like the bible belt. Personally, I have no problem with it, considering it's basically become vernacular as a "pop phrase" the last ten years or so. Still, not everyone sees past the literal interpretation that can be taken as a negative. And with this post I officially get rid of the Junior Member thing....again....lol I like being a full member.....now who's your daddy?

Plus, the lead guitar is really jarring and it's the first thing one hears. Something that polarizing that early in the song is really going to affect how far into and how much people want to listen to it.

This song starts with a drum beat intro and is not jarring at all....you might be thinking of "Let It All Hang Out" that ones starts with the guitar right off.

Oh yea
I'm Your Daddy is even more bothersome now that I've listened
EDIT: Part of that sentence has to do with the guitar tone but not much, but I also mean bothersome to alt DJs because it doesn't sound like an alternative rock song - it just sounds pop. They were hinting to it on the last two albums, but this song is full-on pop.

Hm this falling fast, whilst "I Want You To" is still in the top 15. "Let It All Hang Out" or "Put Me Back Together" for the next single.

Can't Stop Partying should probably be the next single. It would go directly to CHR.

I was going to mention "Can't Stop Partying", but I'm not sure if Alt. would appreciate the Lil' Wayne parts.
