I take it there was no radio edit of the 5:12 live performance off of Itunes for this track? Whitburn's annual has this as 3:46, which probably indicates the second run of the single Paul C refers to.

The live Grammy version used to be available on Tidal as a streaming title, with the audio and video as separate tracks. You could theoretically capture the audio, since Tidal has lossless streaming. However, it seems to have been deleted, as when I try to play it, it says "not found" and "content is no longer available."

Paul C,

First off you taught me something I did not know. That makes the live version an extremely rare version which I can share is on Itunes (but I doubt anywhere else in lossless). I would be interested to know if anyone on this board has it in lossless from that time period.

I was not even aware that is what propelled the song, I always thought it was the studio version...

During the Grammy telecast in February 2010, Pink
performed the song "Glitter In The Air", a track from
her Funhouse album released in the fall of 2008
that had not yet been promoted to radio. (She
'performed' the song while twirling around on a wire
and freely acknowledged afterwards that she had been
lip-synching).

This 'live' performance was released as a digital
single and, almost entirely from digital sales of the
'live' single, the song debuted at #18 on the February
20, 2010, Hot 100. The following week, it fell to #84
and the week after that fell completely off the chart.

It was not until literally months later that the
studio version started generating enough airplay for
the song to re-enter the chart. After fifteen weeks
off the chart, it re-entered the Hot 100 dated June
19, 2010 at #92. This second chart run, this time
almost entirely from airplay and digital sales of the
studio version, lasted sixteen weeks, but the song
during this second run never charted higher than #72.

If I ever become dictator (currently a work in
progress), I would declare the live Grammy version the
hit version, since the only week it spent in the Top
40 (in fact, the only week it ever spent higher than
#72), it charted almost entirely from digital sales of
this version.

The song's chart run was very similar to Daughtry's
"What About Now".]]> Sat, 04 Jul 2020 08:29:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9341&PID=54921&title=pink-glitter-in-the-air#54921
