Could "I'm Alive" by Celine Dion have been a US Pop hit?

[skizzo]

Would it've been a US pop hit had it been sent to the format and properly promoted? Or was it just mean to be an overseas hit?

Here are the countries where it did reach the top20:

#1 Poland
#1 Romania
#2 Belgium
#4 Germany
#4 Portugal
#5 Austria
#5 Sweden
#7 Netherlands
#7 Denmark
#7 France
#7 Switzerland
#13 Finland
#14 Hungary
#17 UK
#20 Spain

#2 European Hot 100
#111 Billboard Hot 100

[allow that]

I thought it DID go for adds...

Anyway, no, adult contemporary music and 90's artists in general all struggled in the early 00's, which was dominated by ringtone rap, active rock, and sk8er boi pop.

Unless it was supposed to go for adds but that was cancelled? For some reason I seem to recall this stopping somewhere in the 50s...

...and I recall there being a remix for pop radio.
