Lift Me Up

If radio didn't touch "When I Look At You," they're definitely not going to touch "Lift Me Up."
People are still acting like this song is dead. It's radio airplay is still increasing well. Usually by this time, we would see it hit a brick wall if it were going to flop, but it's still chugging along. It's not going to be huge by any means, but it's definitely going to pull off at least some decent type of exposure. Sure as hell of a lot better than it could've been. It had the possibility of not getting any radio exposure or top ten digital success, but it got both of those things. Sure it wasn't as lonng as some might've hoped for, but it got people interested in the fact that Christina is ready for another album. And, like I said before, this surely is not yet down. It still got a +98 on pop radio today. That's great considering a lot of songs had sad updates today. (Even powerhouses like "Alejandro" and "Your Love Is My Drug" slowed down a lot today.)
This will be going top 20 next week on pop radio as well, and a nice debut inside the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100. Like I said, it could be worse. It would be going top 20 this week on pop, but "BedRock" just fell below "Bad Romance," meaning "Bad Romance" won't go recurrent this week.

Next week, however, I expect "Not Myself Tonight" to appear at #19 or #18 (depending on how fast "Say Aah" and "BedRock" falls)
