I think I expected "That Song In My Head" to be a big hit because when I went on vacation they played the song contantly, and also my local station played it constantly until recently.
But another station I listen to hardly ever has played it, so I guess if that were my normal station I'd expect it fall off like this.

yeah i knew it would go top 20 and expected it to go top 15, but didn't think it would go top 10. Country Radio only lets females named Carrie or Taylor do that. and then there are the rare occasions like Miranda now, but she is done now hence the -110 bullet she got today

^So country is only open to letting 2 or 3 females shining at one time?

yes. Country radio is so stupid and bias. Just look at all the females who have had so many songs peak in the 11-20 range. Kellie Pickler, Miranda Lambert, Julianne Hough, Ashton Shepherd, Jessica Simpson, Jewel, Trisha Yearwood, LeAnn Rimes, Sara Evans, Reba McEntire, and soon to be Heidi Newfield and Crystal Shawanda (most likely a 11-20 peak for them) they have all had a song(s) that recently had a top 20 hit but failed to make the top 10.
Now let's count the females who have had a top 10 hit in the last year or so. Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Miranda Lambert, and thats all i got.
Now let's count all the males that have had a top 10 hit since 2008 started... Josh Turner, Billy Ray Cyrus, Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, George Strait, Rodney Atkins, Alan Jackson, Chris Cagle, Trace Adkins, Jason Aldean, Phil Vassar, James Otto, Blake Shelton, Dierks Bentley, Josh Gracin, Jimmy Wayne, Keith Urban, and Keith Anderson.
That is 6 times more males in the top 10 than females. Now how pathetic is that?
