I think that after the more mature sounding Wildflower album, she has attained her status as a core Triple A artist for years to come.

Naw I def. don't think Sheryl Crow is physically too old (in age) for Hot AC - they played new songs by Sting well into his 50s... I haven't heard the song yet, but just from the title it sounds like more of Triple A hit than a Hot AC hit (doesn't sound like a pop song title) - Triple A has an older target demo than Hot AC (usually) so if her sound is too "mature" and intellectual for Hot AC (like "Nolita Fairytale") that wouldn't surprise me Anyhow, IMO if this were a HAC-oriented song there'd be no reason for SC to release it only to Triple A (even initially)

Sting's newest material on Hot AC came a few years ago (2002 or 2003, maybe?), and the format has evolved since then. It seems to me that artists don't have as much longevity on the format anymore.

She's the #1 female on Hot AC, and I hear her recurrents everyday. I agree with atlantaboy about the song title thing.

I agree she was at one point, but after The First Cut is the Deepest, the format has barely touched anything else (Light In Your Eyes and Good Is Good weren't too successful here).

I think the recurrent thing is a really good point...if Sheryl Crow was too old for Hot AC right now, I don't think they'd have her recurrents in such high rotation...whereas most HAC's don't play Sting recurrents nowadays (Fields Of Gold or If I Ever Lose My Faith... etc.) unless they lean AC I know they play "Every Breath You Take" but that song IMO is kinda timeless BTW I think the #1 female on Hot AC is still Alanis - there's really no new HAC staple that's why I think Colbie's fillin a big whole that HAC needed filled...

With the likes of Kelly Clarkson, Gwen/No Doubt, and Pink out there for many years now, I don't think Colbie's one hit has proven that she's a core Hot AC artist...yet. The point I'm trying to make is that with age, Sheryl's sound has also matured outside of the sound of Hot AC currents. Plus, I'd argue that probably at least half of a station's recurrent/gold artists who started in the eighties or early nineties wouldn't receive much airplay if they released new material (Gin Blossoms, Spin Doctors, Melissa Etheridge, etc.). I hear Hootie and the Blowfish recurrents regularly on my Hot AC, but I doubt I'd hear anything new any time soon. Some artists do receive a pass, a la Bon Jovi, U2, Chili Peppers, etc., but I tend to think these are the exceptions and not the rules.

Colbie's def. not proven anything yet IMO...but gotta disagree about Kelly Clarkson (at least at this point), Gwen, or Pink bein core HAC artists - a lot of HAC's avoid many of Gwen's songs, and def. a lot of Pink's older songs

When is the album due? Triple A does tend to get singles before even Hot AC although for an established artist like Sheryl, it is odd. Maybe the target for the new album is slightly different and more of a folky/rock-sound than 'Wildflower' or anything before it was.
I'd like to throw the suggestion that maybe they're pushing this song to Triple-A and then another song later on to Hot AC before the album comes out, but that's usually my explanation for everything, lol.

What Kelly Clarkson, P!nk, and Alanis have done doesn't stack up to Sheryl's success between 1994-today. And "Good is Good" was a top 5 hit on Hot AC..not sure what a song has to do to be successful if that isn't.

Kid Pulse---Thanks for setting the record straight regarding Ms. Crow, who has been the #1 female artist at Hot AC since the format's inception; the fact that Top 40 won't touch her is simply more proof.
Kelly Clarkson is a lightweight pop singer who is a core artist at top 40 radio and nowhere else; her airplay at both AC & Hot AC stems from the music and artists which Hot AC & CHR/Pop have been sharing for 15+ years, and there's little doubt that she's also well down the list of core female artists at AC radio.
She's one of the very few beneficiaries of the ever-decreasing percentage of music which CHR/Pop & AC radio share according to various recent articles in R&R since the rappers and producers commandeered the format, chasing the vast majority of the best songwriters of the past two decades into other formats where their CDs will get immediate attention and steady airplay.
Her CDs are hotly anticipated at Top 40 radio, and that's it---just like Justin's are.
Ms. Crow remains the queen of Hot AC radio, and that's been the case for almost fifteen years; any new CD from her is going to receive enormous attention at Hot AC, AC, Triple A & Alternative, something will never apply to Ms. Clarkson.
Toss in Ms. Crow's unimpeachable skills as a superb songwriter, solid producer and stupendous background vocalist and studio/concert musician, and the result is an out-and-out massacre, especially since CHR/Pop barely acknowledged 'Soak Up The Sun', easily the gold standard for pop singles of the new millenium.
Ms. Stefani, Ms. Morrissette and The Material Girl are also trustworthy artists at Hot AC radio, and their CDs will always merit immediate attention at Hot AC, and especially the first two.

Hmm, I must be disillusioned by the Hot ACs I've listened to. When I interned with Star 98.7 and "Good Is Good" first came out, they barely touched it. I had never heard it at WNNK here in Harrisburg, so I guess it never seemed like a Top 5 hit to me (before I paid any attention to charts). The only recurrents I hear around here are "All I Wanna Do," "Soak Up The Sun" and "Everyday Is A Winding Road." I'd say I definitely hear Kelly Clarkson and Gwen/No Doubt more often than I hear Sheryl. Same held true during my days at Star. Anyway, thanks for setting the record straight. I guess the rest of the world is getting more Sheryl Crow than I am

What Kelly Clarkson, Pink, and Alanis have done doesn't stack up to Sheryl's success between 1994-today. Wait...sorry man gotta really disagree about Alanis...you gotta use CHR IMO for her until about '98 b/c so many HACs were the ACs of today, but her huge songs became the foundation of pop/alternative Hot ACs and by the end of the 90s almost all HACs You Oughta Know - Top 10 CHR (to early to use HAC chart) - still a recurrent at HAC Hand In My Pocket - Top 10 CHR (") - still a recurrent ot HAC Ironic - huge #1 CHR - one of the biggest songs of the decade - still a HAC recurrent You Learn - same as above Head Over Feet - huge #1 CHR, still huge HAC recurrent Uninvited - huge #1 CHR Thank U - big rise and fall song, but was a big hit for a few months Unsent - minor hit on CHR and HAC Hands Clean - big hit on HAC and moderate hit on mainstream CHRs Crazy - minor hit on HAC As far as Sheryl Crow, "All I Wanna Do" and "Strong Enough" are now played much more on AC than HAC..."Leaving Las Vegas" "A Change Would Do You Good" and "Anything But Down" really aren't played much anymore except maybe on Triple A... IMO the only SC songs still in Hot AC recurrent are "My Favorite Mistake" "If It Makes You Happy" "Every Day Is A Winding Road" "The First Cut Is The Deepest" "Soak Up The Sun" and "Picture" if u count that Hmmm... I guess Sheryl Crow had a lot more songs, but still think Alanis was much more influential and overall CHR-HAC 90s-00s had the much bigger hits (even though there were less of them)

Wait...Sheryl Crow had TONS of CHR hits (I just listed a lot of them) - still think Alanis was more influential though (inspired tons of other female singers etc.) and overall she had the biggest hits combining CHR-HAC which IMO u have to do cause of the 90s

Did anything else from her "Wildflower" album hit Top 30? (I didn't pay close attention to charts back then). If not, "Good Is Good" may have been one of those "courtesy singles" because of Sheryl's status at the format, but the rest of the record signaled a more mature direction that might not fit at Hot AC. I'm not saying that I agree with how the format works sometimes, but it seems like programmers have become less and less patient with artists who do not consistently cater to the format.

I think Sheryl Crow is more of a Hot AC staple than Alanis is. I've never thought of her as the #1 Hot AC female of the last 15 years but when I think about it, she has been having very consistant chart hits on the format since then, more than Alanis and even more than Jewel.
Does anyone have Hot AC chart stats for all 3 women? And any other solo female that might come close?

She hasn't had a real Hot AC hit since Intuition, I think.

Sorry #40 Yeah Alanis's stats are all skewed b/c the Hot AC chart before '97 really wasn't the Hot AC format we know of today - "Ironic" peakin at #6 is ridiculous IMO - so is the fact that "You Oughta Know" didn't even chart on HAC and it's been a huge HAC staple since pop/alternative took over in '97...I think comparin the HAC charts of today to the HAC charts of '94-'96 is basically meaningless Even with Sheryl Crow, using these HAC stats, "Good Is Good" was a much bigger hit than "Strong Enough"...I think "Strong Enough" hit #1 on CHR that year, or it came really close - also "Leaving Las Vegas" def. hit CHR and peaked in the high 20s And also for Sheryl, "A Change Would Do You Good" was def. not a bigger hit than the two before it from that CD...the pop/alternative Hot AC shift must've happened just as that song was bein released...

I'm surprised Sheryl Crow doing "D'yer Mak'er" didn't chart. I seem to remember hearing it at the time. Did it chart at any radio format, does anyone know?

Yeah it definitely charted on CHR I think in the 30s... We should get CHR stats and use them until '98, and then use HAC stats since then (if anyone really feels like gettin this info...)
