"You Have Killed Me" gaining airplay in the US

"You Have Killed Me" has been added to the playlists of 34 alternative rock radio stations in the United States in the last week.

In a week of several strong debuts, including new tracks from Godsmack, The White Stripes, The Foo Fighters, and Rob Zombie, "You Have Killed Me" has performed very well, becoming the 75th most-played song on alternative radio in its first week on the air.

The biggest supporters of the station are KDLD (Los Angeles), XTRA (San Francisco), S026 (Sirius Sattelite Radio), and WFNX (Boston).

I subscribed to Sirius for Howard Stern Show but I've yet to listen to other stations. I guess I should check out this channel that's playing the new Moz.

It is also being played in Radio 1 in the UK a lot (Score:1)

I have caught it on Radio 1 a few times. Radio 1 normally never plays Morrissey.

Sweet!!! I have XM though, ugh, not Sirius.

I guess I'll send them an email - they say it works. (So far, there are two channels on XM radio - Fred and Lucy - that are alternative and accept, and presumably play, email suggestions.)

no kidding, i heard it on the radio at Best Buy like a day after the My Space stream became availible.

it's a very good radio single i think, and if Moz doesn't shoot himself in the foot like he did with First OF The Gang, i think this could be a pretty big hit

Sirius Morrissey (Score:0)

The Minister,a dj on Sirius, plays mandatory Morrissey/Smiths or "Smorrissey" as he announces it. He's played "You Have Killed Me" several times. Sirius listeners can hear the Minister's radio show on Left of Center, the indie station.

I have been a listener of Left of Center on Sirius for 2 years now and they played the two singles out in America from the last album. I have yet to hear the new one on there but have no doubt they will play it frequently.

i think this is quite an achievement (Score:0)

think about it. most artists after they pass through their most popular phase (usually when they are younger) are ignored by radio entirely even though they retain a fan base.

75th? Can anyone put this into perspective? (Score:1)

I'm inclined to agree with the first post - 75th doesn't sound like something to shout about! What would the top 10 or 20 look like. I've yet to be convinced by this single - just sounds really plain. Still looking forward to the album though!

You Have Killed Me is getting a lot of love from woxy.com. Tune in there to hear it (you can also request it and they'll actually play your request).
