    I’m not really a regular HAC or CHR chart follower but peeking there to see how Kelly and P2 are doing. If I’m off here I hope people more familiar with the way those charts work’ll pipe in. 

    Kelly’s Dark Side surprisingly peaked at HAC (at #8 I think). I love that song, really thought it was a surefire #1 there seeing as Mr Know It All made it to the top. But, Dark Side’s fighting to hang in there at CHR, where it sits at #22. It’ll get passed by Karmin but after that there’s a gap to protect DS if DS can hang on. Maroon 5 will likely go recurrent next week instead of this week. Next Monday’s update should be pretty good with the Labor Day effect wearing off. 

    Kelly said to Billboard (interview was posted here) that it’s sort of had to fight the shadow of WDKY and they’re waiting to see what it’ll do. If there’s a 4th single that’s not from a rerelease than I’d guess I Forgive You is the frontrunner but, you never know. I also expect Narvel’s going to be working on a CMA performance slot for Kelly so, maybe not a bad way to launch a country version of Breaking Your Own Heart if they want to try that. It’d be a wayyyy better fit than MKIA. They could go the other way and not have Kelly perform out of deference to the backlash over the CMA nomination but IMO they’re more likely to use that stage to cement Kelly’s crossover status.

    At HAC P2′s Home is likely to be passed by Maroon 5 next week and will probably have to deal with Taylor Swift’s Never Ever Like, Whatever by the end of next week or early the following week. P2 should pass Carly Rae Jepsen’s CMM on its way down in the next couple weeks but it seems like the chart around Home is pretty strong and Home may temporarily get bumped out of the t10. 

    At CHR, Home has a pretty good cushion behind it at #33 and should pass The Wanted’s single next week. With Maroon 5′s Payphone likely to go recurrent next week and maybe Rihanna that would be enough for it to make t30.

    According to the Hot AC guru on the Pulse Board, “Call Me Maybe” is eligible to go recurrent when it falls out of the Top 10 on the HAC chart (it is at #7 this morning, & won’t fall out of the Top 10 by Sunday), while “Wild Ones” is eligible to go recurrent when it goes 2 weeks without a bullet (but it regained its bullet this past week, so …)

    Meanwhile, “Home” is #10 on today’s HAC chart. It is 123 spins ahead of “Payphone” so it SHOULD (I emphasize the word should) officially be a Top 10 HAC hit when the published chart comes out Sunday night.

    I’m not sure what songs are eligible to go recurrent on the CHR chart this week, but the songs currently at #12-#15 on the chart all have huge negative bullets, which might help Kelly move up a spot or 2 on the published chart come Sunday, even though it looks like she will get jumped by Karmin’s new single.

    “Home” is at #33 on the CHR chart and isn’t in any danger of getting jumped before Sunday. Unless some songs go recurrent, it is unlikely to move up from #33, though.

    Over on the Triple A chart, “Home” is at #22. It is one spin behind Alabama Shakes’ single and 3 spins ahead of Keane’s single. Again, I don’t know what’s eligible to go recurrent this week, but it does not appear as if it will make Top 20 for this week’s official chart.

    Home is down to #10 at iTunes. BTW, Taylor Swift released a charity single tonight after the Stand Up To Cancer telethon and it’s already at #6!

    Funny how the singer who finally manages to knock “We are never ever…” out of the top spot is…Taylor Swift.
