Upside Down becomes the only song from a male to break 540 spins on Triple A format according to Billboard Radio Monitor. It sits at 546 plays over the past 168 hour window.
Not Alternative, that has its own format and tracking system. Technichally it is Adult Album Alternative. It is also called Progressive Rock and even Heritage Rock by some stations. These stations tend to play music that lean towards adults than youth. John Mayer, Jack Johnson, Springsteen, Train, and U2 always score well on these stations. AAA oftens breaks new singles because they dig into album tracks instead of just the commercial singles. Johnson and Friends Upside Down happens to be the biggest song to ever hit this format, that's why I thought it was music news. Glad to help!
