Moonlight is *amazing*. I think back in the day that it would have been a top 10 Nicks or Mac hit.

Nowadays I don't know if "Moonlight"'s mystical music would make it on the radio, and don't get me wrong, it's a *classic* track.

I think "In Your Dreams" might have a shot though. It's a VERY catchy song.

I think the music business is very fickle and radio is not so friendly to older artists. That said, I think WB realizes this is a very good CD and is hoping that word-of-mouth and outstanding reviews will give it some life. If just one of the songs can "click" with the general public (if not radio, then on a movie soundtrack or maybe TV) then I think sales will be impressive (but not mega-selling.)

I'm alot more impressed with the marketing for this album than I thought I would be. Stevie doing the TV circuit, hitting up Glee, and finally catching up with the benefits of the internet, I would hope that her album gets more notice from Top 40 and the younger generation.

I think there is a strong possiblity she will get a Grammy.
IYD is a great album that deserves some recognition. :shrug::nod:
