Swedish House Mafia on AC?

N

new_friends_gr

The other day I was listening to WLTW/New York on SiriusXM, and I was astounded to hear Swedish House Mafia's "Don't You Worry Child". I love that song but generally only associate it with CHR.

Admittedly, WLTW has an amazing playlist for a mainstream AC station, but are there are any other AC stations that are playing this one?
 
With KVIL/Dallas-Fort Worth in its new fresh AC direction, it is possible that "Don't You Worry Child" will be picked up by this station soon.

Keep in mind this is a mass appeal song. Tests well with young and older demos. Great beat, catchy hook, a winner for AC (certain markets) and CHR,

Also keep in mind it is not your parents AC anymore.
 
WLTW has an interesting dichotomic playlist: mostly currents/recurrents and a LOT of 1980s music, plus some '70s, '90s, and early 2000s songs scattered in. It's like they've taken their "Best of the '80s Weekend" formula and applied it to the weekdays as well.

Another new song WLTW is playing while other ACs are not (yet) is Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen - "Good Time".
