Hi, Sue! Good Monday morning to you! Nice to have you here again!
Yes, it was a very rough first week for CHSIB in nearly every way possible, wasn't it?!!
As you said yesterday, look at the competition he had--all the others who had these new songs come in at the same time--Madonna, Robbie...it was TOUGH competition. And here's a man who hasn't had a single in a number of years...everything against him--except, of course, the love of thousands and thousands of people there! Granted, it was NOT the best of weeks to start, combined with all the CD distribution problems...
You know, I think it's a miracle he did as well as he did! And I'm pleased with it, under all the circumstances, believing he'll do even better this next week.
With the TOTP performance in the can, so to speak, there's always the possibility of it. Right? I mean it's their tape. They're not going to throw it away?? Does a song only stay viable for a few weeks, in terms of getting an appearance on there? Just curious...
I think you have just provided all of us here with that little bit of extra incentive to work even harder than before to make this thing happen!
Let me ask you something, if you don't mind. Being Number 1 on the Rock Charts: Does that not mean anything to Meat? Is it only the Pop chart which is important to him right now?
I've been trying to find this out, but no luck so far!
Thanks, Sue, for the news and the ray of hope! It's a quarter to 4 in the morning, California time and I could use all the rays I can get!
Appreciate it!!
Take good care!
