Harmonium falls to # 96

[amberbeads]

It gets worse...White Houses just dropped off the playlist of my local radio station this week.

I THINK IT MIGHT BE TIME FOR A NEW SINGLE.

Yes!  :wink:  I hope that will get Harmonium out of the dumpster of the charts!

Yes! I think so too! I think that they should've released the second single a long long time ago. But what's confusing me is that the people of Taiwan are already listening to "Private Radio" while here, in the Philippines, we have "Who's to Say" and you guys there in America have been hearing of Annie? Right? Channel one played it right? They are confusing the people!  :x

you could release every song as a single... it won't matter.  If it is going to have the same promotion as White Houses, what is the point?

[amberbeads]

Well it's worth a shot. No one here knows how much promotion it'll get, anyhow. Besides, I don't understand how you can say it wasn't promoted. She played the freakin song on GMA, The View, Leno, and TRL; The Biz did a little featurette on her and she went on tour playing both venues and radio stations. How is that lacking promotion?? I think the truth of the matter is that the general public just didn't like White Houses much.

The record label itself did not put much money behind it...and this is coming from a record label person.

well what more could they have done?

[Chloe]

oh sweet jasus.... yup. NEW SINGLE, STAT!!!!!

Poor Vanessa..... she LOVES this album...... I know she doesn't care about the fame and all that but it must really suck to work so hard on something you love and just have it flop.

AND SHE DESERVES HER GRAMMY!!!!!

well what more could they have done?

they did barely any radio shows in a few large cities and most of the ones they did do were only morning shows.  she should be on the roster for several more radio shows this winter and she barely did any TV performances... there are many many things she could have done.

have you ever followed an artist before or is Vanessa your first?  Most, that want to be extremely successful, do a *lot* more than Vanessa has.

I think part of it is the label focusing on other releases over Vanessa but another part of it is possibly her willingness or desire to do what it takes to be successful.

I <3 teh kaysha lol.

We've talked about stuff like that 251326 different times, and there really is a lot more that she and the label could have done if they truly wanted to try and make her release blow up and be popular in the mainstream.  :?

[amberbeads]

Yes, Vanessa Carlton is the first musical artist I've ever been interested in :roll:
The thing is, other artists I've been interested in don't have fans that report their every move to the rest of us. I think it's awesome that people actually care enough about Nessa to want to know all the stuff she's doing for her career, but she doesn't seem (to me) to be doing any less than other people I've followed.
But whatever, I just want her to sell more albums, regardless of the single and where she promotes it and where she doesn't. :dances:

Katia, i SO get what you're saying here. You know i agree. Natalie, i don't think you quite understand how playing on a few tv shows isn't quite enough to have a hit single.

exactly--there is so much more she should/could do.

[clamicas]

this thing already started bad...

from the moment she first postponed the album, to the fact that she decided to tour solo right before the release- it was cool, but if she used that time for tv shows and Magazine photoshoots , stories and radio shows on hours when tere was ppl actually awake to listen and stuff, would have been better.

I guess the thing we like about her (the anti-fame thing) is what traps her the most, cuz exposure (in the right amount) is vital to being remembered and promoted...
