Adam has done just about everything he possibly can to get radio on board. Does RCA just have no power and influence with radio anymore? This guy does all this promo and all these radio concerts and can't even get an add out of it?
Sorry, I'll check in later. If radio doesn't want to add this week, then,seriously, what's it gonna take?

On the bright side though, Vt and Atl City are new spinners so that will up his spins.

NO EXCUSES....TODAY IS "ADD" DAY. to make an impact two addes??????????? and one Canada (YEAH) love it BUT WHERE IS Q102 and hopefully Z100 DIdn't he do promo big time for both stations??? YES??????????? I'm disgusted...need a drink I'm trying to stay optimistic here...but it's hard. It doesn't help that I've never believed in this song. When I listen to the album, I always skip this song. If that makes me a bad fan, then so be it. I've never liked the song. If radio people truly "picked" this song, I think we would see more support. I think they just saw "written by Bruno Mars" and said we'll take that one without giving it much thought. I've watched the music vid today a grand total of twice. My true dislike for the song is making me steer clear of the vid. There also seems to be a problem with timing with his single releases. With both singles, BTIKM and NCOE, they release the single digitally way ahead of the radio impact date and musc vid. Single goes up only so far on iTunes initially due to no airplay and no exposure of music vid. Then sales plummet. Other artists seem to have the release, impact date and vid release all within 2 weeks to maximize the boost in sales/exposure. CHR radio has known about this impact date for over a month and they're not exactly jumping on it. It was crawling slowly up on CHR and had already started dropping on Mediabase before the impact date. Stations don't seem to jump on songs that have already started dropping and is so far down on iTunes in sales. This song may do okay on HAC but I just don't see CHR showing much support other than the stations he did concerts for. But stations in other parts of the country are just not touching this so far. I agree with you Sage. I'm not fond of the song either and have watched the video only two times and that's probably the most I'll ever watch it, but if radio chose this song then why the fuck are they not supporting it. I feel so bad for Adam that he puts in all this hard work for nothing. It's got to be so disappointing for him and well as us. It just breaks my heart. I need a break too.

Boston KISS has no adds this week. :( ETA: Q102 just reported and did NOT add! WTF?!!!! Why does the RCA ad say they added early when they haven't even added at all. ( I may be officially starting to worry.) :-/ Wait! Aren't Q102 and KISS 108 the two stations listed on FMQB as stations who have added? Didn't they play NCOE last week? Q102 played it 16 times, right? Didn't Adam do radio concerts for these stations? Q3: Have the rules of radio promo/radio concerts officially been suspended now, because that is how it is looking?! >:(

I haven't posted in a really long time, delurking out of frustration. IMO Adam did Q102's Springleball as payback for BTIKM, it had nothing to do with NCOE. Q was the only big market top 40 station to add BTIKM I believe, so they did RCA a favor by adding that song and it flopped. I listen to Q102 all day and NCOE fits in perfectly with their playlist, in fact I think it's better than most of the songs on radio right now. It's the fist single from Adam that I really love. I didn't think BTIKM was a good radio song and wasn't too surprised that it didn't do well. But this song is perfect, so this time it's not the song imo. Adam and RCA obviously are doing everything they can to get him radio play, if this song doesn't work, I really don't know what one will.
