Congratulations Brad and Carrie! This is fantastic.

Have any of Brad's solo singles hit platinum? I'm not a fan of his music, so I don't know anything about his usual sales as a digital artist.

Awesome! Can't wait to see its sales pick up even more after the CMA performance.

Im pretty sure it's her 8th platinum single. And wootwoot!! That's great! Im so happy!!

 

[teesharky]

awesome news! Now that is 8 platinum hits for Carrie!

So Small is very close to being her 9th one. Does anyone know how much longer it should take? Thanx.

So happy for them! I still listen to RM all the time.

On other AI news: My daughters didn't believe me when I told them the song on the radio was Kelly Clarkson's new song. They said it didn't sound anything like her music and it wasn't very good. I honestly started to think I was wrong until the "Mr. Know-It-All" part. I have to agree that her voice is different and the song is REALLY repetitive.

Looking forward to seeing Scotty's and Lauren's numbers. Also Daughtry has FINALLY released a new single (which I love) so his new CD must be coming out in the next month or so. I wonder with all the AI alumni releasing new CD's (Kellie Pickler must have one coming out soon too!) if Sony was happy to let Carrie take her time on this CD since 1) so many artists are releasing at the same time and 2) a lot of those artists are from AI and waiting a while gives Carrie a chance to retake the spot light when the new music isn't so crowded.
