I think TISL spent 23 weeks on the Top 200

I agree. And if it had come out prior to that, I believe it would have gone multi-platinum and spawned several hit singles.

Definitely! So much potential exists with IYD it's still not over yet, we may get some surprises, one never really knows!

Speaking of Billboard, how did "Secret Love' do? What number did it go up to?

I assume it charted on the 'Adult Contemporary' list.

SL peaked at #20 on Billboards Adult Contemporary chart, as well as peaking at #26 on Billboards Triple A chart.

Some were optimistic FWIW would debut in the Top 30 AC this week, as it was bubbling under and starting to get more spins, but alas it looks as if its not to be. It has been released for nearly 2 months already...so it's not looking so good right now. They probably need to think about another single soon. Maybe a song that already has a video pretty much in the can from the IYD documentary. Annabel Lee, Moonlight, In Your Dreams, Wide Sargasso Sea, You May Be The One & Italian Summer had video's supposedly already filmed in January 2011 over 4 days I suspect FWIW was an unplanned 2nd single, and released based on the great response it received from critics and fans alike after IYD release.

I don't think a lot of fans LOVE it. The response wasn't overwhelming.

Disagree. I actually think a majority of fans love it, as you can see by the numerous threads devoted to this song, not to mention its great standing so far in the current "In Your Dreams" survivor thread. The problem is that conglomerate radio & the remaining few cable TV outlets still playing music video's simply chose not to play Stevie's new music anymore. She has long fallen out of the key $$$ demographic, no matter how good her new songs are. Triple A & AC kinda gave SL a chance, but that song wasn't strong enough imo to leave an impression or have an impact. Stevie has had more impact with her numerous high profile TV appearances/performances & extensive media & print interviews, along with her short IYD tour. It's just reality.

Any recording artist 60+ years of age will have the same uphill battle. Stevie has actually fared very well so far and not only walked away unscathed, but celebrated and honored. Between the well spring of great reviews almost across the board and selling so far @150K copies of IYD in the US alone 4 months in, that is probably better than Warners anticipated in the new music business model reality. And much better than any of her contemporary peers.

Is anyone privy to the actual sales data so far for IYD?

[tabruns]

Last I saw was something like 146,000+ in the U.S.

[michelej1]

Whoa, I saw that Doris Day, 87 years old is charting with an album of new songs in the UK.

Album is called My Heart. Better hustle Stevie.

First album that Doris Day had on their charts was 62 years ago.

With it debuting in the mid 5ok that'll be tough.
