HMH's been about 60th on the list when you sort by Audience increase: https://kworb.net/radio/ . According to the exact link you posted, Hold my Hand is #36 and precisely 26 songs above it got a negative update yesterday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the discussion was about rate of growth / updates. To see how songs rank by rate of growth you have to click on "Aud+" to sort by audience increase/decrease. 26 songs above it may have gotten negative updates but when you rank the whole list by audience increase it had an update that ranks about 60th on the list. For context, it ranked #1 in audience updates a couple weeks ago for a couple days (which was encouraging). I want the song to turn around on radio and have big gains again, but I'm a little concerned the explosive updates it had a couple weeks ago may have been curiosity spins/initial excitement following the movie release.

I think part of it too is that adult contemporary and hot adult contemporary added spins quickly giving the fast innitial boost but now there isn't much increase left to be had there We need top 40 stations to play it more than just once a day and I think that's why it's stalling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KIIS played it like 6 times in a single day (a week and a half ago I think?). I was hoping they were starting a trend but maybe not. That reminds me, I haven't checked KIIS's playlist for a while. Gonna look now, although I'm bracing myself ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssslyboy 3,273 Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Looks like KIIS is still playing it about half a dozen times a day, and it's #13 on their Top Songs. So there's still hope, if other big stations start playing along! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
