Sixx:A.M.’s “Gotta Get it Right” Explodes at Rock Radio

So accessible that a pop push is actually under consideration, Sixx:AM’s new single “Gotta Get it Right” predictably received another scorching reception from rock programmers.

After ranking as active rock radio’s second-most-added song with 10 monitored pickups last week, the song cruised to the most-added position on this week’s listing.

According to Mediabase, a whopping 24 monitored stations added “Gotta Get it Right” this week. No other track earned half as much new support from the active rock format.

Royal Blood’s “Figure it Out,” the week’s next-best performer, scored 9 monitored adds this time around. KONGOS’ “I’m Only Joking” and Islander’s “Coconut Dracula” followed with 6 monitored adds and 5 monitored adds, respectively, while Korn’s “Hater” and Letters from the Fire’s “Zombies in the Sun” split fifth-most-added honors with 4 monitored adds each.

Set to fly up the airplay chart in the wake of another solid adds week, Sixx:AM’s “Gotta Get it Right” is already #21 at the active rock format.
