ladybugking Posted August 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 (edited) This song has surprising "legs" , even it it is just in one area of Canada. I am wondering what the next single will be and if it will get wider release. I figure as long as 100 Years is doing well on the charts, they won't push another one just yet. Should this album go gold (I have almost no doubt that it will) and eventually platinum, that will be a nice platform from which to launch the American CD.

Ron Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 What surprises me is that the song that is getting airplay is a "radio edit" and isn't as nice as the CD version and is STILL up there. (LOL! I just realized how snobby that sounds - that's the purist in me!!) RADIO EDIT!?! What are they editing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtlfan Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 RADIO EDIT!?! What are they editing? I've only heard it once in a store, the song is shorter. I can't tell you exactly what they're editing though. I'll see if I can catch it on one of those pesky french radio stations. I know, I know!!!!

ladybugking Posted August 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 I am trying to figure out what might have been cut, but I am guessing the opening part (scratchy record/accordion)? Interesting because this is not that long a song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting because this is not that long a song. I just spoke to Markir on the horn this morning. He said exactly what you guessed, the opening part was different. I had only heard the last half of the song and both of us agreed that the end seemed shorter too. I remember feeling a bit cheated at the end when the song ended before I expected it to. My guess is that they edited the start and end so that it fits into a "standard" timeslot for songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladybugking Posted August 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 And onward Dennis rolls on the Canada Charts. And YES! I KNOW these numbers only reflect PART of Canada. (Albeit a populous part. ) Album Sales Chart - SoundScan - #136 (So it remains in the top 200 sellers) Singles Charts: Francophone/Anglophone - #4 single this week (BDS, whatever that means??? :| ) Radio and Records weekly A/C Chart - #33 (8 weeks on this chart) Mediabase charts - These are calculated twice a day and for many weeks the single has ranked in the top 25 of ALL singles on this chart. Looks like Disney and High School Musical have taken over the Billboard singles charts. 8-| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Looks like Disney and High School Musical have taken over the Billboard singles charts. 8-| ...and the album chart and the "most watched tv show" chart, the most downloaded songs (I think I remember seeing 8 out of the top 10 are HSM2), etc. etc. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladybugking Posted August 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Looks like I cannot access the top 200 album sales (Canada) anymore. So I am not sure if the album is still there. The single is still standing strong on the Radio and Records A/C Singles chart. 9 weeks on the chart now it is at #34. The single is seeing a bit of a drop on the MediaBase charts (which are compounded daily), but it is still in the top 35 on the AC charts there. I am anxious for the release of the second single and seeing how well it performs. If it is indeed "Save Me", every time I listen to this song I think that, back in the day, this would have been a monster hit. It is a wonderful song!

Is it because you're trying to access it from an American IP address? Maybe I can do it from here ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladybugking Posted August 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 No, I can get the current chart, but they only list the top 100 albums instead of the top 200, which they used to do. Maybe someone else can find the whole top 200 list. Last week, he was #136. I was curious to see if he was still in the top 200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
