Okay, I got this idea and I want to see how many people will do it, how many of you will keep call, email for 'In God We Still Trust' to be played on the radio? This is away to get the radio stations to KNOW that there is support out there for this song everywere.
Please start calling your radio station, talking to the DJ, Program Dir. Anyone asking for this song.
Maybe sending out flyers to all the radio stations in your area, emailing everyone of them. Maybe we should also sent some to Arista to make them understand that the fans ARE AND WILL SUPPORT this song.
Arista address is 1400 18th Ave South, Nashville, TN 37212.
I'm sure this will get deleted but I will be posting this on other message boards.
Come on Fans of Diamond Rio lets get this going.
Support Diamond Rio.

Radio doesn't work "by request" anymore and I'm wondering how long it's going to take people to get that through their heads.

'Bring Me Down' from Miranda Lambert didn't even hit top 20. And that's too bad....Miranda is great and has one of the best country albums of whatever yr it was released....can't remember right now off the top of my head.

I think her debut album is amazing, she has some great vocals, very beautiful. It was released in the middle of March. I know sales have passed 200,000, but I don't know how much past that. Can someone find out? EDIT: Typos. I normally don't make them becuase I catch it before I hit post. Oh well.

Spam. This thread should be deleted. I agree - this is the THIRD board I've seen this 'cut and pasted' on!

This post is not spam!
I am trying to get help getting this Song "In God We Still Trust' PLAYED on the radio.
I'm not understanding the post that says Request to radio doesn't work anymore.
I have posted this on some other boards yes, asking for HELP not spam. I don't do SPAM, I'm a Diamond Rio fan and have ASKED for help on this board before and got NONE.
Over on a different board cmt's there is some one always ATTACKING Diamond Rio and they work in the music buz which I thought and still think was not a good ethical thing to do but here he was doing it, attacking ANYONE supporting Diamond Rio, always stating that Diamond Rio was doing something WRONG. I'M A FAN....
Now can anyone please explain to me WHY if you REQUEST songs Radio doesn't work like that? I guess I missed that. I have asked my radio station to play it and I got a email back stating that the company? on that word wasn't going to support this song. So I don't know if it was the radio station or the LABEL.. which if it is the LABEL then WHAT CAN BE DONE....
AGAIN this is NOT SPAM I'm asking for HELP. I just had an IDEA to see if it would HELP thats IT.
Thank you.

Yes I posted that about 2 months ago. Still needing help. I've read the answers I got there, thank you.
So any other answers? Or help would be great.
Thank you, Oh and no one needs to explain themselves, just help another fan of country music, Diamond Rio is great and this song is better then some of the stuff being played on radio right know. I can tell you that AS FANS of COUNTRY MUSIC We need to stand together and also that more songs about faith are being played on the RADIO then WHY ISN'T THIS ONE???
if you want to watch the video then go to the name of the song with 3 w's before the name of the song without spaces and a dot and com and you can watch and hear this great song.
In hopes you all understand. I want to get this going for this wonderful song.

I worked for a radio station in Albertville, Alabama for about a year and could NEVER stray from the playlist that was sent in from California. It's great to know that people in California are programming what people in Alabama are listening too. That's why request don't get played. The radio stations pay big money to these people to make their playlist for them and don't want to stray from them. Now every full moon the station would do a Howl At The Moon request show but that was few and far between.
Edit: I just watched the video and it is pretty good. Not sure how and if radio will receive this. Also, that dosen;t look like Brian Prout the drummer. Has he put on weight or is it a new drummer?

Thanks bamafan2102 for reply. I never did understand why those people thought we would like them to see what we want to hear on the radio. The radio station I listen to has a music test which I do then they take those votes? and thats what we hear. They have been playing 'Skin' by FR every 3 hours and then we hear 'HOtel CA' by the Eagles, NOW lets talk about that song? Lets See Evil??? 'In God We Still Trust'??? I like the Eagles always have, but come on? I did get a email back that said the company ( label) he didn't think was going to support the song. 'In god' that is.
Yes it is Brian, I'm sure he was tired do to 2 new babies and not much sleep. hee hee Yes it's Him..

Ok Not much help here either. I was told that the company was going to support this song but not sure what company that was. Is the label called a company? I thought they would be called something different?
Anyway Lets support this great song.
Thanks
