"Not Meant To Be" is the third single, which is currently Top 10 at Hot A/C. The track "Hate My Life" is fast becoming an anthem for our troubled times; sitting Top 5 at Rock and Top 25 on the Alternative charts.

The video for "Not Meant To Be," which features the track's co-writer, Grammy-nominated songwriter and American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi, is currently in rotation on VH-1, cracking into the Top 20 this week and FUSE, where it sits at #3 on the Rock countdown. The video for "Hate My Life" is also shooting up the charts at both MTV2 and FUSE. In a rare occurrence, both videos were added to the respective channels' rotation slots in the same week!

Digital sales from Scars & Souvenirs have also proved to be very successful. "Bad Girlfriend" has sold over 625K singles to date, clocking in at over 15K per week.

Most recently, "Not Meant To Be" has seen 10 consecutive weeks of continuous growth, up 20% to 45% the past 3 weeks to over 120K downloads.
