August 29, 20159 yr Kworb has it at #475 with an audience of 2.370: http://kworb.net/airadio/ Ohhh :unsure: so am I right in thinking not getting great radio support over there?
August 29, 20159 yr Ohhh :unsure: so am I right in thinking not getting great radio support over there? It's only been released to HAC/AC radio, it's yet to go for adds on Top 40 radio. Things take a while on US radio generally. It's doing well on the HAC format at the moment.
August 30, 20159 yr HAC 33 31 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 727 558 169 1.859 +31 Spins +24 Bullet +0.054 Audience AC 30 31 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 66 66 0 0.411 -1 Spins -1 Bullet -0.024 Audience Good update again on HAC, 63 stations playing it now (up 2 from yesterday). Songs ahead of Leona: Rob Thomas 82 (+150) NeedToBreathe 208 (+123) American Authors 348 (+123) Kelly Clarkson 404 (+169) Sam Hunt 798 (+139) Leona should rise quite a lot over the next few days on HAC. Hopefully it'll get an adds date on top 40 now it'll be top 30 on HAC in the few days.
August 31, 20159 yr HAC 32 29 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 752 574 178 2.003 +25 Spins +9 Bullet +0.144 Audience AC 33 31 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 66 62 4 0.455 +0 Spins +0 Bullet +0.044 Audience Good update on HAC today - adds will come in later so hope Leona will get a few more. "Thunder" is now being played on 70 stations now (up 7 from yesterday). Things looking really good for Leona on HAC, should rise to #26 in a few days time. People ahead of Leona: NeedToBreathe 95 (+113) Amiercan Authors 241 (+107) Kelly Clarkson 252 (+152) Sam Hunt 662 (+136) Andy Grammar should go recurrent once it falls out of the top 10 too (which will be in about another week or so).
August 31, 20159 yr It's getting really frustrating waiting to see if this gets sent to Top 40 radio.Anyway 5 more adds today! ! Edited August 31, 20159 yr by Leonagwen
September 1, 20159 yr My local station just spun Thunder at 8:40 pm.Finally getting some prime time spins!!
September 1, 20159 yr ^ That's great news! "Thunder" got 5 more adds on HAC this week: 5 adds on HAC this week: KAMX-FM - Ranked #35 KFMB-FM - Ranked #17 KQKQ-FM - Ranked #75 WKRQ-FM - Ranked #30 WMYX-FM - Ranked #38 Decent amount of adds and 4 top 40 stations including a top 20 - should help with its audience figure. :)
September 1, 20159 yr HAC 32 29 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 773 590 183 2.061 +21 Spins +5 Bullet +0.058 Audience AC 32 32 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 67 61 6 0.465 +1 Spins +2 Bullet +0.010 Audience Another good update on HAC today, should rise quite a bit in the next few days. Songs ahead of Leona: NeedToBreathe 6 (+89) Kelly Clarkson 121 (+131) American Authors 149 (+92) Sam Hunt 561 (+101)
September 2, 20159 yr Only a +10 update today.Its not gaining like it should be.Might be time to send I got you or ALS to top 40 radio.
September 2, 20159 yr HAC 32 28 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 783 617 166 2.095 +10 Spins -17 Bullet +0.034 Audience AC 31 32 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 64 65 -1 0.467 -3 Spins -7 Bullet +0.002 Audience 71 stations playing it now on HAC (up 1 from yesterday). Decent update today, but would prefer it to gain a bit faster. Should be up to #26 tomorrow.
September 3, 20159 yr HAC 32 26 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 794 650 144 2.14 +11 Spins -22 Bullet +0.034 Audience AC 30 32 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 64 66 -2 0.456 +0 Spins -1 Bullet -0.011 Audience Up to #26 on HAC, should rise to #25 in a few days or so. Once it gets to #25 it'll be a long time until it climbs given most songs ahead of it are climbing and there's quite a big spin gap.
September 4, 20159 yr HAC 32 26 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 802 673 129 2.136 +8 spins -15 Bullet -0.004 Audience AC 30 32 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 62 68 -6 0.447 -2 Spins -4 Bullet -0.009 Audience Gaining quite slowly on HAC. Personally after hearing "I Got You", I hope they push that to POP/HAC/AC instead of "Thunder" now, especially given how slowly "Thunder" is climbing and that it's not in the top 1500 on US iTunes (all the songs ahead of it are).
September 4, 20159 yr If you look at The HAC itunes top 25, 24 of the songs are in the top 200.Leona isn't even in the top 1500.Also 22 songs in in the Hot AC top 25 are in the iTunes top 100. Something is not right.Might be a good idea to send I got you to top 40 radio. Edited September 4, 20159 yr by Leonagwen

Something is not right.Might be a good idea to send I got you to top 40 radio. All those songs have been added to Pop radio. She has the smallest audience, so you can't really compare. The big question is why Thunder is yet to get it's start on Top 40 radio. As for the few number of spins, notice Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams is getting over 100+. She's eating up a lot of spins for all songs on the format, hence the low number of plays.
September 5, 20159 yr HAC 32 26 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 801 696 105 2.141 -1 Spin -24 Bullet +0.005 Audience AC 30 32 LEONA LEWIS Thunder 63 67 -4 0.46 +1 Spins +2 Bullet +0.013 Audience First negative update on HAC. I think it'll recover come Monday onwards though - it's a slow week mainly due to it having a really good week last week. I hope it'll pick up steam for at least the week the album is released. Then they can send "I Got You" to Top 40/HAC/AC radio instead - as I don't think "Thunder" is going to do much unless things really start to pick up soon.
September 5, 20159 yr I think the negative update is because of the holiday weekend in the Usa.A lot of Hot AC stations started playing older music starting yesterday and will continue this till Sunday pm.I notice most songs on the Hot AC chart had low updates.We won't get a true indication how its doing till Tuesday or Wednesday.

I don't know if it sound to change singles this late...after all the interviews and performances. Doesn't promo across multiple formats have to be in sync. Top 40 means nothing if spins will just be as few as HAC. Fact is, Thunder has not been given a chance to prove itself. HAC spins it nighttime, from what I gather; its not on heavy rotation on music TV channels and is omitted from Pop radio. So how exactly are people to find out about it? Has the video for I Got You been shot?
September 5, 20159 yr Yeah, I don't think Thunder was ever going to do much in America. The market is just too big, and she's not relevant there enough. Thunder is a nice song but it's not going to grab much attention. She should have focused more time and effort on the UK where she is much more of a name.
