Bleh, I'm majorly bored, so I'm gonna match up the current run of "Goodbye for Now" with "Will You" and "Alive" to see how it shapes up.

It's worth noting that while "Alive" took 6 days to hit #1 and "Will You" took 9, "Rock the Party"--P.O.D.'s first video to ever make the countdown--took 8 days to hit #1...if "Goodbye for Now" is #1 on Monday, then there's some sort of pattern, I guess. Here's how I see it:
"Alive" - 6 days to hit #1 - #1 most-successful P.O.D. video
"Rock the Party" - 8 days to hit #1 - #2 most-successful P.O.D. video
"Will You" - 9 days to hit #1 - #3 most-successful P.O.D. video
"Goodbye for Now" will be the #2 most-successful P.O.D. video regardless of whether it hits #1 on Monday or Tuesday (I'd prefer Monday, but Tuesday is almost a sureshot.) 7 or 8 days to hit #1, so according to my theory, "Goodbye for Now" will do better than "Will You," maybe even "Rock the Party,"* yet worse than "Alive." ("Alive" was on back when retirement was 65 days, hence it made it to 58, so it does have a bit of an advantage.)
*Something tells me that even if it
doesn't pass 43 days, it'll still have an overall better run...it could even retire, and I hope it does.
In that case, I'm going to vote a shitload over the weekend.
