At this moment, I just looked it is #90, the song is just now barely getting airplay and has no hype. After his idol performance I'm sure it'll get a new peak and after that its up to radio airplay.

#71 on iTunes overall chart now. I see it as #115 ??? I see 115 now too. ??? The highest I've seen before this was around #86-#88 I think?

i thin the new version is better imo. Pat Monahan kills it on the "stop ignoring that our hearts are in mourning" part

The chart you're viewing doesn't contain explicit songs. ![](http://yoursmiles.org/ssmile/fun/s0244.gif)

I think the addition of Pat sounds a bit cut & paste, but it's not like the song was some CHR-ready hit regardless. It is, and always was, a Hot AC song. And adding Pat for that purpose makes sense because Train does very, very well on Hot AC. When I thought they meant this song primarily for CHR it was an odd choice. Now that I know the song is primarily for Hot AC, the choice doesn't seem so strange.

I think the addition of Pat sounds a bit cut & paste It literally was. You would think that people working for a major record label would care about quality. But it's such a sh*t cut-and-paste job. When Kris's voice comes in again after Pat's bridge, you hear half of his breath from the original version. They couldn't even do that right with a fade or something. It's just a sudden, disjointed noise. I thought it was an artifact on the original stream, but the iTunes version sounds exactly the same at that point. Fu*king amateurs.

Another sign it's going to be sent for adds to CHR. According to yes.com, it is getting some spins on Top 40 stations already. I saw this on twitter:
WDJX Louisville (a Pop station) played @krisallen The Truth 3 times tonight at 10:00PM, 10:07 and 10:17PM according to yes.com \o/

3 times in 20 minutes ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/browraise.png) That sounds like a challenge. And the station doesn't need to play the whole song for it to count - I think, like, 30 seconds from the beginning, or even less. They probably played it once in full, then played a clip to remind people there was a challenge, and then maybe again in full because it won the challenge.

Falling on iTunes... :( 184. The Truth (feat. Pat Monahan) - Kris Allen Its okaay, he's not a Katy Perry with a new song out with all the buzz, I think if he kicks azz on idol, with increasing airplay it will slowly creep up. Many folks still dont know this song is out with idol they will know.

I'd saying it's doing well all things considered.

It hasn't gotten more than a couple of spins on CHR yet, but it's moving up on the Hot AC chart. At #48 this morning. Has at outside shot of cracking the Top 40 on Hot AC by the time the official chart comes out on Monday (is 124 spins behind)
I wonder if it will officially go for CHR adds the week after he performs this on Idol? Or maybe that week?

This song is getting a good start on HAC. I hope it gets sent for adds on CHR next week.

I think thats' exactly what Jive might be going for, adding this after idol. I always thought it would get added at the end of the month or they'll push it to June when it starts moving up more on HAC.
