I'm shocked and excited that this actually debuted on the Hot 100 first week out the gate.

Maxwell's Hot 100 History #36 Ascension (Don't Ever Wonder) #04 Fortunate #22 Lifetime #58 This Woman's Work
Maxwell's R&B History #79 ...Til The Cops Come Knockin' #08 Ascension (Don't Ever Wonder) #23 Sumthin' Sumthin' #79 Matrimony: Maybe You #01 Fortunate #55 Let's Not Play The Game #25 Get To Know Ya #05 Lifetime #16 This Woman's Work
So this is already his fifth biggest hit on both charts, although it's worth pointing out that "Luxury: Cococure" went to #16 in R&B Airplay but was unable to chart because a physical single wasn't released.

^ That is pop sales, right? He is top 10 on the R&B itunes chart. Those are digital sales for the week. They're not for any particular genre. Soundscan doesn't break down sales by genre.

someone posted all the chart positions of all MAXWELL songs. this was most helpful and most interesting. i assumed all his tunes made it to number 1 or close to it. it just goes to show the lovers of true, quality soul are in the minority, not the majority. i am PROUD to be amongst those who desire true, quality soul.
it is a shame that MAXWELL's only number one hit was a song not penned by him (i think the song was penned by rkelly).
again, the posting of MAX's chart positions was most helpful.

It only went for adds 10 days ago, it is doing amazingly well on Urban AC.
Urban was starting to play it even without an adds date.

Billboard review:
Pretty Wings MAXWELL
Producer(s): Hod David, MuszeWriters: H. David, MuszePublishers: various Label/Catalog Number: Columbia
May 30, 2009 ET
Pretty Wings
Reviewed by Ronald Hart
After an eight-year hiatus, the neo-soul sensation Maxwell makes a triumphant return to the R&B fold with the beautiful "Pretty Wings," the first single off his highly anticipated fourth album, "BLACKsummersnight." He proclaims the set is the first part of a trilogy with which he plans to usher in the second decade of the 21st century. Over delicate xylophone plinks and warm, soulful horn arrangements that sound as though they were directly lifted from an old Hi Records 45, the Brooklyn-born singer croons a heartbreaking ode to letting go of a relationship. It's an absolutely gorgeous ballad that ushers in a long-overdue welcome return to one of R&B's most talented and original artists.

I thought this song was going to climb to #1 on UAC very fast, but There Goes My Baby is blocking it, and today On The Ocean overtook it! :S
Though UAC is a complicated chart. Maybe it will recover in the following days.
