Combo of both. The live version on iTunes is driving a lot of it, but the studio is played on the radio more.

BigMacPhisto said:Considering that it combines two recent Grammy faves, I wouldn't be surprised. Was it worthy of a nomination? Nah. Even against the weak mainstream crowd that the Grammys reward.
Covers should never be allowed, particularly because the commitee is filled with old fogeys that either don't know a song is a cover (in the case of the Skids tracks) or would rather vote for a new version of a classic ("One") then reward something NEW.....there's tons of great new music out there and it's a shame that the Grammys are positively the worst at presenting it.

Other news, Saints is life is near over. Falling on every chart, but suprisingly gaining spins on the pop chart. To be perfectly honest, I'll be glad when this song dies, it did it's job well. Hopfully once that happens the video for WITS will debut, and the full fledge promotion for WITS can take place. The Video stayed at #15 on VH1 top 20

Harry Vest said:# 71 on Billboard ain't that great. It better hit the Top 40 or it doesn't even qualify - does it???

It peaked at #51. Consider this, its charted better than any single U2 released since Vertigo, also has become the biggest hit off any U2 compilation. This is its 4wk on the chart and for a band like U2, it's pretty good. I not sure I know what you mean by qualifying?
