Really Val? Who uses the radio for their music fix anymore? Music has gone the way of books pretty much....digital. People prefer to make their OWN playlists for mp3 players, iPods, etc.
We use our 6 CD changer in our car to listen to music without commercials and smarmy DJs.
Also music videos online and on TV (MTV and VH1) are bigger (more important) than radio play.
Even so, MOST pop stations have added BTIKM to their line-up.You simply do not like that particular song.But as I've said, it was a "soft roll-out" for radio and I'm sure there will be many on the album that you do like.
It's ALL good!

I can see how you might interpret my sentence like that, but what I really meant by it was that I don't think radio will play it. I really only listen to pop radio while I'm in the car with my wife and kids. I don't care for much of what is played (and I certainly don't use the radio for a "music fix"), but I do want Adam to have a hit. Has MTV started playing videos? Maybe I'll have to start watching that station again.
For the most part, I listen to 60s - 90s music, and some 50s every now and then. I have 16,000 songs on my ipod, so yes, I have various playlists.
Anyway, the vast majority of songs that become smash hits owe their success to radio, and radio hits make stars.
It is good to see that the new single is being played in some areas though. It's not getting any airplay in Memphis, but pop radio here seems to plays the same 10-20 songs over and over. I just want him to have a song that joins that group, like WWFM did.
Btw, I may not like the studio version of BTIKM, but I do love his live versions.
Hope you enjoy the weekend.
