Not bad, but I feel like there could be some major movement if they would flipping release In Your Dreams as a single!!! Country radio would eat it up.

Moonlight - and even though Dave's video is bound to be great, a cameo appearance by Robert Pattinson and that girl, whatever her name is, would make the video and the song a smashing success.

Yes it would. I think it was youtube or something that had a video of the audio from this song, with a Twilight background or something, and it had a lot more views than the other versions of the same posted song!

or a newer, hotter pair.

...like Aimee Teegarden & Thomas McDonell

or some combo of the Kaboom! kids:

Haley Bennett & Chris Zylka & Roxane Mesquida & Juno Temple & Andy Fischer-Price & Nicole LaLiberte & Brennan Mejia

...or the hottest two people in movies today: Steven Strait & Megan Fox <------------the we of me!

I have to admit I don't know who they are.

I just thought that since Stevie has been so public about Twilight being the source of inspiration to finish Lady From The Mountain, it would make sense to put the stars of the show and the subjects of her song in the video.

I know I know. I'm just disgusted by what Twilight has become (I actually think they ARE good actors, however, especially her). Part of the beneficent spirit of the first Twilight movie was in the discovery of these new stars. So I'd prefer Stevie's video also be done in that style (besides: Steven Strait LOOKS like Lindsey).

At this point,I really dont care which IYD tunes gets release as a single.I just want to see her get on to the charts.

Bandon · #**324** 05-31-2011, 01:09 PM

Hits Daily Double predicts IYD will fall out of the top 50 album charts this week. How far down the charts is not clear, but hopefully not into the musical abyss.

I dont know which thread to post this in.But today I was at my local grocery store cashing out.ShopRite has tv monitors at the cashout lines to promote their stuff and also give news and promote upcoming tv network programming.Today the played a minute clip from VH1 news about Stevie's IYD cd.I did not grasp what Stevie said .but she was probably taking about being happy about her new cd.Thats great She is geting promoted in grocery stores now.I have not seen her on Walmart TV and B.J"s tv yet.I caught Adele on B.J"s TV last week.I have no idea what Target plays on their tv displays.I hope people see this and go buy her cd.

So total is in the 70K range after 4 weeks?

tabruns · #**328** 05-31-2011, 10:11 PM

I think it was 88,000+ after three weeks, so with this week's sales it will probably go over 100,000.

mitzo · #**329** 06-01-2011, 06:10 AM

100,ooo in a month is excellent in today's music market. Plus overseas sales. Way to go!

Christopher · #**330** 06-01-2011, 01:53 PM

So 1st month sales for In Your Dreams are approximately:
1st week @52,000 -Billboard Album #6
2nd week @22,000 -BillBoard Album #16
3rd week @16,000 -Billboard Album #24
4th week @10,000 -Billboard Album #47

I think IYD sales thus far (Over 100K) are very respectable for a veteran female pop/rock artist. Stevie sold just around where I anticipated she would during her 1st week, though I was hoping for a better 2nd week showing. I would be very curious to know what WBR was projecting for IYD, and if they and Stevie are happy with her sales at this point?

In comparison to her peers around the same age group with new releases, Stevie is doing much better than Emmylou Harris' "Hard Bargain" which debuted at #18 and is barely in the Top 200 albums in it's 5th week & The Cars long anticipated new release back w. Ric Ocasek "Move Like This" debuted at #7 with only@20K+ in 1st week sales and fell to #29 in its 2nd week to #43 in its 3rd week. The only veteran artist to be doing better ever so slightly is Paul Simon's "So Beautiful Or So What" - out 3 weeks longer than Stevie, but he seems to be having more consistent sustainable sales week to week.

At this rate Stevie is on track to sell at a minimum (150K) which is what other female singer songwriter rock/pop peers such as Sheryl Crow & Melissa Etheridge latest 2010 releases sold. But probably not do as well as Sarah McLachlan's "Laws of Illusion" which has sold over 280K in the US (though Sarah is far more entrenched in the adult contemporary world) whereas rock music has seen more of a steep decline in sales. Does anyone know what Hearts "Red Velvet Car" has sold?

If Stevie could get over the 200K hump I think IYD would be considered a big success sales-wise by the Industry. I just hope WBR is planning on a new single with a possible tie-in to dance remixes where Stevie has had crossover successful on the charts beginning with POTU(2001), Dreams (2006) and Stand Back in 2007. Overall I think IYD has performed thus far and would not be considered a commercial failure, but hopefully WBR & Stevie have some tricks up their sleeves so that IYD will continue to sell throughout the year. The biggest recent commercial failure by a female rock act was Holes' "Nobody's Daughter" which only sold 33K in total sales in it's 3rd week (then slipped into the abyss) - and that's with Courtney heavily promoting it, even going on shows like "The View" in doing so.
