^Awesome!!! Cary, what exactly does go for adds mean? Is that when they ask radio to play the song? And if so, are these spins before TTNCAMM is supposed to be played?
The adds date is when the record label is looking for the radio stations to add the song into their regular rotation, giving the song a steady level of airplay. Usually, songs will start at a low level of airplay (like once per day, not counting requests) and move up over time. The time prior to that is generally for the radio stations to test the song by playing it and requesting listener feedback or including it in new music challenges.
Cary, is the "debut" position when the single first appears, or when it is offically "added", ie, in Things' case, Sept 10.
The debut position is when a song first enters the published chart, which would be when it enters the top 50 on Mediabase/Country Aircheck or the top 60 on Billboard/R&R.

TTNCAMM had no airplay change today and dropped to #81. This is not surprising since radio stations don't test songs on the weekend. Things will probably pick up again in Tuesday's update.
