In an effort to save some threads...
 
...What other Stevie and Christine FM songs do you think could be considered non-hits and be in the contest? Remember we're looking for songs that weren't already in the contest and aren't on the Time or Say You Will albums. :cool:

Would "As Long As You Follow" be considered a hit? :shrug:

Should "As Long As You Follow" count as a hit? I'm thinking no since it only charted at #43 on the hot 100, even though it did hit #1 on the AC charts...:shrug:

Are there any songs from Say You Will that we want to consider as "hits"? I know Say You Will and Peacekeeper were the singles. :shrug:

Mmmm let me see let me see...I could count What's the world coming too, Murrow, Red Rover and Say Goodbye, following what I've seen on the DVD and playlists of the Say You Will tour. But well, I really don't know...
Regards!

I usually go by if it charted in the top 40 of any chart as a basis.

"Peacekeeper" - #10 AC (US), #16 Adult Top 40 (US), #31 Top 40 (NZ)
"Say You Will" - #17 AC (US), #21 Adult Top 40 (US)

Those would be the only "hits" from the album SYW.

Despite listening to the radio only rarely, I overheard both of these on the radio here in Germany. Not recently, though.

MacShadowsBall 05-19-2012 11:10 AM

Yeah I had no idea that Peacekeeper and Say You Will charted that high. They charted higher than a few hits from earlier!

MacShadowsBall 05-26-2012 03:43 PM

I'm working on how to condense these songs down and begin part 2 of the contest. Any suggestions? :wavey:

MacShadowsBall 05-28-2012 02:23 PM

Massive Update!
 
I haven't done a decent update in a while, so here it is. The SYW finals is the only poll left open. Part 2 of the contest begins Friday. I'm thinking of doing Part 2 tournament style. Any suggestions or if you wish to help, please PM me. Also we will be having a few rounds to determine the "ultimate runner-up" song.
