I still don't really see this being a pop hit. Sure, there's a little Timbaland flavor in the instrumentation, but the overall vibe of the song makes me think of Depeche Mode more than anything else. And that vibe just doesn't gel with the current direction of pop radio. I could see it having some success at Hot AC though.
At Alternative, if this were released as the immediate follow-up to "Resistance", as it should have, then it would have had no problem at least getting to the top 5. Now, however, I can't help but wonder if "Neutron Star Collision" killed their momentum enough to hurt this song's performance. I certainly hope not.

Pop hit? I am starting to wonder if it will even be an alternative hit.

4 Muse songs on the chart and the oldest song is the one at the highest position. Anybody know how I can add this little fella to my post? Wrapping the url in [/img] doesn't seem to work.[/quote] You have to upload it to tinypic first, the board won't display .gif's

^ finally.
Apparently it looks like Mediabase deleted "Resistance" and "Neutron Star Collision", but "Uprising" is still hanging in there.

"Resistance," unlike "Uprising," fell below #15 and "Neutron Star Collision" fell like a rock and was removed the week it fell below #40. (It would've spent one more week on, but would've naturally fallen out of the Top 50 a couple weeks ago.)

I love this song its really good. I can't see this doing much on Pop becuase it wouldn't get thel ove and the respect it deserves.

Now that it's officially gone to adds, hopefully it will start climbing a little faster.

Up to #17 now, but seems to be slowing down a bit. Hopefully this is just temporary. At the very least, this damn well better outpeak "Neutron Star Collision".
I do have to say that now that I'm hearing this on the radio regularly, I'm starting to see where people are coming from with the pop radio predictions. I don't think this is a sure shot, but it has a chance at crossing over. If "Animal" could do it, why not this?

Love this song and Muse in general. Saw them in concert for their Supermassive Black Hole tour, and they were phenomenal.

If they want a crossover hit, I can't find anything better than this to be played onRock, Pop and Hot AC

This is starting to "click" with Alternative, +88, probably will move into the Top 10 by the end of the week. I'm assuming they were getting a little recurrentitis from Uprising and Resistance. I still think this will make it's way to #1 as nothing is usually released during the holiday season. I can see a push after the holidays on other formats.
