James Blunt on CHR

This morning I heard "You're Beautiful" on, of all stations, 96.5 Kiss FM in Cleveland. I had never really thought of it being a CHR song, but it obviously is. Thoughts?

It's also being played alot on the mecca of all CHR stations...Z100/New York
 
It's also being played a lot on the mecca of all CHR stations... 97-3 KISSFM / Savannah

Ok... maybe not the 'mecca.' But we are playing it and getting huge reaction. The softer AC sounding songs that are a hit, usually are a big hit. Think "She Will Be Loved," "Picture," "The Reason," - all #1's.

I could go on.

It's just kinda funny to hear it between songs like "My Humps" and "Laffy Taffy". But that's what works!

Hey Brett -

We were getting some calls for it and decided to give it a few spikes in middays. It's showing a lot of potential in our internet research as well.

Its a great track. Slow or not. If Pussycat Dolls can get to #1 with Stickwitu I believe James Blunt should be able to make it to the top 40 (which it already has) Fits the format just fine.<P ID="signature">______________

The major difference between this record and those, of course, is that none of them had a male lead singer who sounds quite a lot like Macy Gray.

Don't shoot me! It's still a good song; I just think the dude has a funny voice!
