True but it remains a long shot though. Lights debuted at 95 last year August and fell of the charts after and re-entered the chart in April/March and hasn't peaked yet, it's currently the third slowest song to ever climb on the hot 100. With Ellie it's a whole other situation though.
The amount of weeks that it took for kelly's song to peak:
A Moment Like This = 7 Weeks
Miss Independent= 9 Weeks
Low = 11 Weeks
The Trouble With Love = 9 Weeks
Breakaway = 14 Weeks
Since U Been Gone = 16 Weeks
Hazel Eyes = 13 Weeks
Because Of You = 10 Weeks
Walk Away = 11 Weeks
Never Again = 4 Weeks
My Life Would Suck = 8 Weeks
Hook Up = 8 Weeks
Already Gone = 16 Weeks
All I Ever Wanted = 2 Weeks
Don't You Wanna Stay = 11 Weeks
Mr. Know It All = 14 Weeks
Stronger = 10 Weeks
Average of 10 Weeks (Every Single)
Average of 11 Weeks (Hit Singles)
Dark Side is on it's 9th week now..... So yeah, uhm it's about time this song blows up.
The most depressing thing about the song is that it hasn't received a OFFICIAL +100 spins on pop, the only two times it did was due to the top 40 breakthrough and a panel change.

Well, I still have hope that it will start getting big updates around Late August and peak Early October or so. Maybe the song is too emotional for today's Pop radio? I can't see this flopping but who knows? Radio might not like it after all.
I say Kelly should perform it on a show...any show. That should give it at least a small boost on ITunes which hopefully translates to better radio support. With her tour though promo seems unlikely
I still want a VMA's performance next month!
) but it's not like we're going to see 5 or 10+ adds a week anymore per format.
