"Every Part Of Me" was already released and bombed. Actually, it's done better than "Appreciate." "Every Part of Me" - spins: 950, impression: 6.055 million "Appreciate" - spins: 905, impression: 2.205 million

I liked her on AI, but this stuff just sounds too cheap and generic for my money. :(

Going by past American Idol non-winners and the amount of air-play and promotion she's getting, I think she'll be lucky to crack 100,000 in total sales...ever.

I was VERY close to buying it on Tuesday when I went to Circuit City. But its price turned me away. If it were $5.99/$6.99, I would have gotten it FA SHO.

Wait a minute..........Circuit City had it on sale for $9.99, so you mean to tell me for Three bucks (less than the price of a Vente Latte at Starbucks), you passed it up?
Damn, I heard a bein' on a budget, but that's ridculous. It really is worth every penny. Great CD!!

as i said there is good and bad news in these numbers for Latoya . while her numbers are well below the debut weeks of winners Kelly,Ruben and Fantasia as well as runnerups Justin,Clay and Diana and other finalists Tamyra ,K-lo and Josh and even idol reject William Hung they are well above several other idol finalists that include R.J ,Jim ,Carmen,Corey , Jasmine ,George,John Stevens all who failed to chart on the top 200 with their cd's.

I wish someone could find out just what's goin' on in Latoya's "camp", and why we haven't seen here ANYWHERE in the major media to promote this project??? T

JD, I know Kelly peaked at #1, Fantasia # 8, K-Lo #16, Josh #20, but how about the rest? Do you know the peak position of their albums in billboard? Would you please post them for me? Thanks!

most of them had either more tv appearances than Latoya or a song with more radio airplay at the time of release of the cd . considering there were no tv appearances or little radio play it did very well and if Latoya would have had more of both which she should have gotten but did not because of her label and managment not doing their job right. >:(
actually Josh's cd debuted at #11 were it peaked . other idol cd's
Kellys "breakaway" album peaked at #3
Ruben Studdard first album peaked at #1 ,his gospel cd went top 20
Clay Aiken first album went to #1 and his christmas cd debuted and i think peaked at #4
Justin Guarini album peaked at #20
Tamyra Gray album peaked at #23
William Hung album peaked at #34

That's nice but if they only order in 3 copies to start, it's not that impressive to sell out. What was the initial shipment?

i would think an order for 250 copies would mean they think its selling well for them already.

well yeah, it's possible that actual sales were much higher than expected, but still.... the single choices have been the sort of nail in the coffin. "State of my heart" or some of the other songs have serious UAC potential.

Personally, I'd love to hear "I CAN'T HIDE" as the next single.
