The lead single from album number two hit today on Sirius. As with all White material, it's very likable to me. But if any of the three from the first album couldn't hit, why should this? Looks like the long awaited The White Stripes album is becoming years away at best.

Already? It hasn't even been a year since their debut.

I guess when The White Stripes is only a side project now, it's easier to put out new material with the new band.

I just assumed the tour coming to town was still in support of the first record.

I'm sure it'll cover both albums.

I don't get how it's doing so well when it's not like that's how their songs were doing the first time. And I'll be damned if "Treat Me Like Your Mother" wasn't one of the best songs of last year.
I guess that Jack things that if his other group can get by releasing an album only one week after announcing it to a record label, this band could get by releasing a second album just a year later, since they're a "supergroup" after all, not really a full-fledged band. Or so that's how it seemed.

I like this a little more than Mother, and I love that song.

I heard this at some point last week and it didn't really do anything for me. I liked "Treat Me With Your Mother" and "I Cut Like A Buffalo" so maybe it will have to grow on me.

This may turn out to be bigger than most or all of the hits from The White Stripes.

Just because it's #30 with a +82 bullet does not mean it's going to be bigger than White Stripes singles. If White Stripes put out a new single it'd probably have a bullet in the 400-500 range in its first week.

Well, it was a pretty laughable comment. This would have to spend several weeks at #1 to better all of The White Stripes singles.

Definitely not more than all. I don't expect it to be as big as "Seven Nation Army" or "Icky Thump." It may do as well as some Raconteurs (probably not "Steady"), since they've had 3 Top 10 songs.

Well, just by charting it's already outpeaked most of the 30-some The White Stripes singles. But I'd be really impressed if this climbed to #1. Not too likely.

I see this peaking at like #23 or #24.

Nope. According to whitestripes.com, The White Stripes have releaed 24 singles. Only 9 of those peaked higher than where Die By The Drop is right now. This song has easily outpeaked most of them. Now as for all of them, time will tell. Doesn't look likely as I said.

Yes, Conquest stopped at 30. Die By The Drop is up to 25 today, surely to outpeak Conquest and the 13 others that did not make the top 40. There's your most.

You said "hits" though. Singles aren't hits automatically.
