According to FMQB, this is how the song will be marketed to CHR/Pop. It goes for adds on April 25. Personally I think this song is REALLY weak and wouldn't be surprised if it's a big flop for them. It sounds like disposable punk-pop (like Simple Plan or Bowling For Soup) where there first two singles from the album were really catchy and stood out.

This is so catchy to me. I can't figure out though if it's the good kind (memorable) or bad kind (annoying) of catchy. Still undecided. I think it will do well for them, though nowhere near as good as the first two singles. I'm thinking a peak around #12 or something.

This has grown on me, though it's nowhere as good as their first two singles. This will probably be the first single from them that I don't end up hating.

He's saying he liked their other two singles at first, but then got tired of them because of the amount of play they got. Assuming this doesn't do as well, he's saying he won't get sick of this. Back me up if I'm right.  |

Back me up if I'm right. Yep, you got it. Thanks for explaining it, you did a lot better then I probably would have at explaining it. |

Has anyone heard that "Touch Me" song?

"Touch Me" was a Top 10 hit in 1987. Samantha Fox was kind of like the slutty one of the late 80's teen queens. Both of her big hits were basically about sex.

On TRL they refer to it as "A Little Less 16 Candles", which seems slightly less ordinary. I've never heard it on the radio (hell, they don't play Dance, Dance, so i'm never expecting to hear this on Y100) so I don't know what they call it. I like this song, though it's not as strong as their first two singles. Before the video came out, I heard that "Sophomore Slump" was gonna be their next single, what happened? I guess that's why those nude pics of Pete Wentz "leaked" out on the internet! Hot new single promo!!  |

The alternative station I listen to played the song on their new music show and they put the effort into the saying the entire title. Hell, they even did it with that Panic! At the Disco song. But its an alternative station, on commercial radio, I have no idea what they will do. When the band was looking into their third single, it was between this and "Sophomore Slump". So they picked the safer song over the one with more substance. and don't even get me started on those pictures.  |

On the radio station I listen too they call it, "A Little Less 16 Candles A Little More Touch Me." It's a catchy song.

Yeah it's going by the full title but it won't fit in the subject line anyway, so I'm not going to edit it.

This is doing horribly. They really lost the hype fast.

Their album only has two big hits on it. They have other catchy songs, but they're not catchy enough. Releasing songs with insanely long titles doesn't help either. People probably can't even remember the title of this song.

I love this song and I think it's very catchy. I dont think I like it as much as the first two singles, but it's still up there.
