Canadian Active/Alternative Charts

[Billy Uranus]

That Active chart is looking pretty similar to ours, minus the heavier bands like 5FDP and Chevelle. I just checked out that Big Sugar song and it was sweet.

How does a song go from #11 to being off the chart unless a recurrent rule forced it off?

I looked everywhere and I couldn't find it charting. I watched it fall like 8-20 on Mediabase.

I love how your Alt charts are a step ahead of ours, but the active charts are several weeks behind.

And I still don't understand why Chevelle doesn't have more success up there. Does Tool not get much play either?

This is Chevelle's first hit. And the only time I've heard Tool on the radio was when "10,000 Days" was out.

[Billy Uranus]

Whoa, that's really surprising to me. I would have thought songs like "Send The Pain Below" would have at least done decently there.

I don't hear Tool much where I live, but some active stations treat them like a major recurrent artist, which is cool. I'd love to hear "Stinkfist," "Prison Sex" and others on the radio.

Chevelle just hasn't done well up here. Also, they used to scare me. I'm sure I mentioned that before.

"Stinkfist" actually went #1 on Alt here. Trufax.

I forgot to tell you that I checked out some of the songs from you active chart (including Whistleblower) and I thought they sounded like something you would hear in the 1970s.

That's the chart in a nutshell. ;D For a better Arkells song, try "Oh, The Boss Is Coming!" or "Ballad of Hugo Chavez".

[Billy Uranus]

^I just listened to "Oh, The Boss Is Coming!" and now I'm halfway through "Ballad of Hugo Chavez". I feel like I'm listening to the Black Keys.

That's a good comparison. "John Lennon" is okay too if you're still interested.

I can't tell you how awesome it is to see a song called "Who?" that high on a chart. It's a pretty good song too.

Yes, it is an awesome name. Reminds me of the Black Crowes. Still haven't heard it on the radio, despite them being from here.
