Judging by Mediabase it looks like 150 stations have added Feel Like A Rock Star and if we average that out it's about 12 spins per day (obviously I'm sure it's more for some stations and less for others).. My local Country station plays about 13 songs per hour which would be about 300-312 songs per day. If 12 or even 20 of those are one song, there's still 280 spins left for other songs. My point is that if there's enough demand for a song or if the stations feels it's worthy to play it more, they will. They have plenty of room. Stations want to be hot and play fresh songs, they can always remove some older ones to make way for the newer ones to attract listeners and then re-add the old ones when the new ones start to get stale. I realize I'm being really particular here, but ONE song with a deal is not that big of an impact per station to cause a negative impact overall for other songs.

Yeah you're really being particular
Also let me point out that the song didn't even lose that many spins, 4 if i remember correctly, so basically last week it was spun 4 times more than it was spun today...that's due to the Tim/Kenny song that's affecting the whole chart with slow gains for some songs, a bit of a drop for others.
Now, since you think i'm posting ******** and keep thinking the way you are, then there's nothing more to say
