Doubtful. The album isn't going to move much in the charts unless she does some more promotion over here. Yes, Hard Rock Calling was great and she had her little appearances on Breakfast and Loose Women and some radio interviews and specials but they don't give mass exposure - they all pale in comparison to what she's beein doing in the US. Such a shame...

I'd have to agree here, I think IYD has had it's little day in the sun in the UK, and now it's done. I would have liked to have seen more promotion from Stevie over here, since I loved her Breakfast and Loose Women slots, but, she's really a pre-dominantly American Star with a world famous name. If that makes sense.

You've hit the nail on the head here and got to the heart of what seems to be Stevie's confusion about other markets. Yes, she may be a predominantly American music artist in that her solo career is most successful over there, but she is famous in other territories (world famous) and if she bothered to capitalise on that fame she wouldn;t have to be a predominantly American Star.

I'm still holding out for some UK dates - although I'm not as optimistic as I was a few weeks ago
