This has been confirmed by Tamia on her official website as the second single. I don't know when it officially goes for adds but the video will be shot in the beginning of April.

OMG! OMG! I'm soooo excited!
I have been wanting this one to be a single since I heard this on the initial South African release of the album.
This one has the potential to be a huge hit on both radio and in the clubs. "Stranger In My House" 2007!!

This song is crazy. It's hard to imagine it doing well on radio in this climate, but you never know.

It should be another top 10 for her on Urban AC. Actually, I could see this being #1. It won't cross over to mainstream urban though. I just hope this becomes a big enough hit so she can get a Grammy nod for it.

Between Friends - 4115 - 127,766 (not sure what # it lands on the top 200)
*Can't Get Enough rises to #26 on the R&B Chart - it's highest position thus far - yay!

I hope this becomes a hit for her. I really though "Can't Get Enough" would've done it, but this seems like it would.

This doesnt have a chance in hell at Urban success. She needs to send "too grown" to urban and "me" to urban Ac.

If Urban radio supported "Stranger In My House", I see no reason why they would not support "Me".

"Stranger in my house? was in 2001, the year is 2007. it is a totally different climate at radio. Lets be serious. "Cant get enough" was more mainstream than "me" and that hasnt even cracked top 40 at urban.

She sent it for adds while its was at its peak on Urban Ac. Thas really not a bad time. Either way its not 2001 and this style of ballad doesnt have a chance in hell of doing well on mainstream urban.

Robin Thicke and Mary have both had hits at urban with ballads. Besides radio has already taken a liken to the song. If pushed right, "Me" can do well.

I hope she does a remix to the song. That was huge part of the success of "Stranger..."

This style of ballad is too old fashion for urban. Mary and Robin had a more current flavor to their sound. "Me" basically sounds like she is taking an old formula from 2001 and changing the lyrics. Tamia has much better choices on the album if she wants both urban and urbanAC sucess. "They way I love you" and "almost" fit the bill much better.

How well did Heather Headley's "In My Mind" do? I think whatever success thst song had is a good indication of how "Me" will fare.

In My Mind by Heather Headley made it to #16 on the R&B charts and #75 overall. Depending on how radio responds, Tamia might have some difficulty even attaining those numbers. It all depends on if radio wants to present a ballad like this during this musically "hot" spring season.

Heather Headley was also on a major label and it was her lead single which usually has more hyp than a follow up single.
