I'm pretty sure even if HOM flops with the general public Vanessa will still have a career in the music industry.

There are SO many artists that keep recording that would love to sell half as many copies as she has sold of "H&T"

Joanna Newsom
Ben Kweller
Broken Social Scene
Emily Haines
Metric

The list could go on and on.

Nothing to worry about folks, Vanessa will be around for as long as she wants to be.

^ True, but we want her to be relavent to the music industry. We want, and she wants, her music to reach larger audiences and that is why we talk about commercial success.

I think the reason so many are worried about the Hands on Me single and are voicing their choices for singles is because Hands on Me just doesn't seem marketable to any audience, yes the lyrics are awesome but the music is just something I feel would put off many mainstream music fans. I hope the video is able to catch the attention of many, I really do, but at the moment I'm just not optimisitc.

My personal choice for a next single would be This Time, the music composition is heartfelt but also a bit attention grabbing and I do think the song can connect with a lot of adults. While all of Vanessa's songs are written well, her music composition is just too different. But regardless I just hope we get a next single.

I agree your thought about HOM being somewhat not marketable to any audience, but I prefer Fools Like Me to This Time coz the cathyness of the song and it's radio friendly as well...Either way, any next single would be just great...

HOM is one of the catchiest songs on the record. The melody just grabs you.

It will for sure make a better impact than Nolita.

I'm a huge fan of both Emily Haines and Metric, and I enjoy Broken Social Scene, but I'd like to point out that they are indie artists on indie labels. Thus, their sales barely make a dent in those of many major-label artists. Vanessa is a major-label artist, so you can't really compare her record sales to some of the artists you mentioned.

I do think Vanessa would do extraordinarly well as an indie artist, though.

Anyway, I'm dying to see the HOM video and hear about any progress made with it. I wish I'd found out about the casting earlier; my brother and his wife (both extremely attractive people) live in LA!

The reason y i think not many people are interested in V's new songs is because every song out there now is like dancy-club type if u get wat i mean....
V's songs are more calm and classical than pop....
And not many people are into that kinda music and her songs wont just magically pop up on the radio all the time...so they have no way in being introduced to V.

That's my opinion at least... :razz:

:lol:

I know somebody who was in the Hands On Me video, but she doesn't want to tell anything about it since they keep it secret :x

I think that V has a lot more of a chance of blowing up today, because look at Feist! 1234 was just in this commercial and it suddenly caught fire. If V becomes one of those Vh1 you oughta know artists, she'll be so popular. Ingrid michaelson also got so much popular and she's not a dance/club pop artist.

So, V definitely has a real chance to become so popular again. just keep pushing with a lot of adverts and stuff.

Vanessa needs to be in the next iPod commercial... Who calls Steve ?

There's no way she can be a you oughta know artist because she's not new. They only feature up and coming artists and V already had her big hit with A Thousand Miles. However the commercial idea is a good one. An iPod commercial would be amazing.

She sang the song from the Old Navy sweater commercial. "If you are chilly/Here take my sweater?"
