Here's the most added for this week... what do you think of each song?
#1-Coldplay- Viva La Vida- I expected this song to do well... but it's got one HELL of a jump to start. (+600 according to Mediabase... has there been a jump that big in recent times?) Definite Top 10. Maybe #1 if people don't burn on the iTunes commercial.
#2-David Cook- Time of My Life- It's going to be a moderate hit, but I don't expect him to REALLY break out until the full album is dropped.
#3-Natasha Bedingfield- Pocketful of Sunshine - I'll admit. I didn't expect this song to do much, and it STILL hasn't really grown on me. But it's already in B and easily looking to A status. Dunno if it will surpass the popularity of Unwritten.
#4- Maroon 5/Rihanna- If I Ever See Your Face Again- My listeners are cold to this one. Rihanna hasn't done well for us, and I think people are getting a bit tired of Maroon 5. Dunno if we'll add it, but it has potential.
#5- Kid Rock- All Summer Long- I got on this one quickly. It's turning into our summer anthem, and requests are coming from all ages for it.
MY personal up and coming picks:
Katy Perry- I Kissed a Girl- HUGE at CHR. If Hot AC can get past the "slightly controversial" lyrics, it could be a smash.
Flobots- Handlebars- Might be out there for most Hot ACs, but the younger skewing ones should see instant reactions after one spin.
O.A.R.- Shattered I JUST got it on my desk today. For sure an add next week if not right after. "Love and Memories" did GREAT for us, this will solidify O.A.R. as a Hot AC artist.
