I only hear it so far during overnights on WPST/Trenton. Great song. Have you heard it? What do you think? Seems like it should be on mid-days everywhere.

Yeah I've been into it for a while as well :) Seems to be doing well on Modern AC stations, especially those based in California.

Excellent song. It's currently climbing the Hot AC charts after having been a hit in Europe last summer. Great video too.

Powter seems to be overshadowed by James Blunt right now though, and everyone knows that American CHR only has room for one foreign sensitive male ballad. At least that's how I'm afraid programmers see it.

The Hot ACs played it out already. It's been played constantly on the local Hot ACs here since July or so. I doubt it'll make much impact on CHR. Especially since everybody would rather play hip hop.

Adult leaning CHRs and CHR stations that lean adult/Hot AC during the midday for sure. Fits them well.<P ID="signature">______________

That's funny. I've never heard this song, but Fuel had a song by the same title a few years ago, and that same description fits that song perfectly. Knowing that, I'll have to steer clear of Mr. Powter.</P>
 
I'm hearing it during other dayparts, through the murky processing on WSTW. The station "sounds" like crap but they play some pretty cool songs.

Huge in Canada

This song has been huge in Canada for months. It's good at first... After several months of pretty high rotation you will want to slit your wrists...
