Beautiful song ---- Someone tweeted z100 saying that they should play the song and z100 retweeted it to Kris and the band. That doesn't mean they will play it, but it's a good start.

Yeah Ill take anything I can get right now. This song is very HAC but it is beautiful and if z100 can jump on it in the future, that will help it immensely. They have a good relationship with Kris/jive hope they can work some magic lol.

Z100 sponsored the concert at Six Flags (NJ) that Kris & Allison played tonight [Saturday] , and a couple of their deejays were there. They really like Kris and LLWD did really well for that station -- it was in the Top 10 of its playlist for a LONG time -- so I wouldn't be surprised if they start playing The Truth
Also, after the concert Kris drove to Philly and did an in-studio livestream chat thing with Q102, which is another Pop station. They spun The Truth while he was there. And again, the deejays there love Kris, so that station could start playing it as well.

I would be amazed if Z100 added this. Happy but amazed.

LOL The Truth is now a fetus in Pop. Maybe Jive can get with the programme now and send it for official adds.
If it's true, I don't get why they have to wait for the performance on Idol finale - wouldn't it be better to create some buzz ard / knowledge of the song so that it can take full advantage of the exposure at the finale?

yay for it showing up on the Pop chart. More Top 40 stations seem willing to at least give it a test spin, so this may end up doing ok in th format. LLWD was a relatively slow grower in Top 40 (it charter higher more quickly in Hot AC) and that will be the case here as well. But I'm cautiously optimistic

Allison Iraheta is given a 3rd single and neither of her fisrt two have performed as well as LLWD. She's signed to Jive as well so this bodes well for the chances of Kris getting a 3rd single regardless of how The Truth performs. At this rate, we can expect it at the end of the year. :op
Anyone knows if David Cook got a 3rd single?

when was the last time a non-tedder ballad managed to become a pop hit during the summer? especially one as HAC-leaning as this.

Take a Bow is a ballad?
Seems like Jive has no problem giving flopping girls 3rd single (Lesley Roy also got one that went absolutely nowhere).

This song is now #45 on HAC. It's supposed to be added to Pop in May, hope it's soon - I wanna see how it does.

With this kind of song...it will be a slow climb. But, in the end, I think it will exceed a lot of people's expectations -- even mine.

I still don't get why this song was chosen as the 2nd single as it will be really hard for it do well on pop. Hopefully it will exceed my expectations because they aren't very high at the moment.
