Sales - "Heroes & Thieves"

I pretty much agree with you.  This is pretty much my position except I think she could go big with this even without a movie connection.  The promotion is fine, but maybe a little late as there was no pre-release promotion.  I still think Home is the single everyone will be able to connect with on a large scale no matter where their home happens to be.  If anything this album will give her some much needed identity and build a bigger fan base.  So is my humble opinion.



I have to agree with you that Home is THE single that will make the biggest splash...I think that song will be the biggest hit. I can see Hands On Me, Spring Street, Come Undone, The One and even My Best doing well. I don't think the album is hit-less.....I think it's more a matter of getting the songs out there to begin with. I do have faith that Irv has a plan behind all this.
and if you don't believe me... just Put Your Hands On Me

My goodness an Apple commercial would be huge.  It really did work with Feist and many other artists that were played.  As corny as it is "Hands on me" would work for IPOD Touch and IPhone.....
Well lets see what happens.  I do like Heroes and Thieves the best...
It reminds me of her old material.  It seems to be very similar to Ordinary Day on composition and sound.

Irv could probably work something out. BTW, I was just listening to HOM and is it me or does she switch from "and all the constellations shine down on you and me" when she did it live, to "and all the constellations shine down for us to see" on the album version...I'll have to listen to it again....Also, I hear in the chorus a female operatic voice behind Nessa's; Just noticed it.

dropped to #96 on Billboard 200.

:(

We must get the video to #1 on VH1 and top ten on TRL to get more attention for her! (even though TRL has changed to the most sucked-format ever)

On the other hand, the album is still being heavily promoted on Billboard. Her face is on the Billboard front page now and on other pages of the website as well.
#34 on iTunes...

Really not good. Does anyone know if Billboard includes digital sales? My guess is no since she is doing so well with digital downloads. I don't think that is really fair....they should count equally if someone buys the whole album digitally.
