mms://66.186.0.101/allaccess/panitheo.wma"The Only Difference Between Martyrdom & Suicide Is Press Coverage" I don't know why their releasing this, the title is long as hell, and it's not really catcy. They should have released "I Write Sins, Not Tragidies" but whatever. Has anyone heard their cd? I'm thinking of getting it.

I don't even know which song is suppose to be their single anymore. Seriously. This is the song I hear on the radio and with a strong bullet at Alternative radio. Yet the other single is mysteriously going up the iTunes chart. So weird. |

Z100 added this and I see many more stations following suit soon. This would be HUGE if it ever actually went for adds.

If Fall Out Boy can get two Top 10 hits, there's no reason this shouldn't chart. People will probably think it's Fall Out Boy.

Shocking that Z added this so early...

Shocking that Z added this so early... I'm glad they added this. However, Panic! is a big buzz band and anyone who remotely follows the teenage music scene knows that there's a lot of hype around them. Z100 adding this is gutsy because the song is nowhere near the Pop chart yet, but at the same time not so gutsy because they're an obvious "not-obvious" band to add. Now Z100 gets to take credit for breaking Panic! even though their breakout is inevitable. |

So you're saying Z100 is the Madonna of radio stations? We all know Madonna steals ideas right before they become popular and then passes them off as her own in an effort to look "cutting-edge"

lol
Well not exactly. Most stations want to be the first to jump on a song that becomes a nationwide hit. Panic are huge among teens right now and it's pretty obvious their breakthrough is right around the corner. I hate to make another Fall Out Boy comparison, but the teen hype behind Panic right now is reminding me of the "underground" teen hype behind Fall Out Boy a few years ago. Then all those fans will leave them because they're "SELL OUTS". lolol

But now that Panic! is having one of their songs get played on a big radio station, they're going to leave them as well and look for another band no one knows about. Lol, its ridiculous.  |

If you like a song, you like a song. What difference does it make if 10 people know it or 10 billion people know it? The song itself sounds the same regardless. Such a stupid mentality and one that's older than music itself, ugh.

I'm really digging this song. I like the chorus, and the synth-ish breakdown in the middle of the song is so HOT.

It's a good song. But the title is so pretentious. Its from a book by Chuck Palahniuk, either Invisible Monsters or Survivor, i forget. Both are are amazing though. Edit. It's from Survivor, and its a comment on our diaster fixated news media and the insuing sensationalism; on how a good PR person can take a death and turn it into a front page story (and not because people actually care about the death itself). I wouldn't really file it under pretenious. |

This song is great. I love it. Althought I think "I write Sins, not tragedies" would do better on pop since the title isn't as long. Plus it doesn't hurt that it has a video.

I think "I write Sins, not tragedies" would do better on pop since the title isn't as long. Please tell me I'm not seeing this, from the person who was arguing with me earlier that my theory on titles having an affect on the success of a song is stupid. |

^Well you weren't talking about songs with long titles in specific. YOu were talkin about songs that you personally would see flop because the title doesn't "sound like it's gonna be a hit."

You're saying this could flop because the title is too long. What's the difference? You're going along with my point that a title can affect the success of a song. That was my exact point. Who cares if you're being more specific? What you're saying falls under the umbrella of what I was saying. |

Tyler, you've lost me here. Sorry, man. There was an argument in the Kelly Rowland thread about certain songs not becoming hits because of their song titles'. |

Oh God, another emo/scene band (or whatever they want to call themselves) on the radio. I can't handle this.
