I think it will be- and this is what will gain Stevie critical attention as well. For me, critical acclaim will be the ultimate vindication; album sales/charts don't mean much these days. We've already heard a couple of rave reviews of the aged & raw sound of Stevie's vocals on the Dealer. Critics love grit & realness, and it is sounding like this album is squarely hitting that mark.

I know I brought this up earlier, but after listening to the original Belle Fleur demo this week along with the new clip, I can't help but think this song in particular could really make a splash on the country scene. I'm guessing putting out a radio single specifically for country radio isn't even on Camp Stevie's radar, but it really should be. Especially after her recent CMA performance & collaborations with Lady Antebellum, the country world is primed for Stevie.
