Heh. The one thing I learned watching Bo on Idol, is that he doesn't give up easily. His single is just like him!
According to Mediabase, Bo's already seeing a lift at Hot AC. He's been on the Taking off list for a few days and his spins are increasing more rapidly on that format. But glad to see he's still holding his own on Pop too.

I want Bo Bice to do well, but I am hoping he's capable of putting out a better album than this one. He already has, at least in my opinion. It's not "pop," but his EP "Recipe For Flavor" is much more the real Bo than the RCA album is. The songs don't all sound alike and they have more interesting lyrics (all songs written by Bo) and they show off his voice better than most of the TRT songs do. And I like his older work with Purge better too.

I like this song a lot...and you all know how I bash songs so negatively. I hope it makes the top 10 on Billboard Top 40. I hope you get a chance to hear more of the album. The title track is not the best song. (I have yet to see anyone say it is their favorite on the CD.) I don't think it is the worst either but here are some of the ones that Bo fans seem to like best: Valley Of Angels - So not like TRT! Bo wrote it and it has a Gospel sound to it. His voice sounds great. U Make Me Better - pretty catchy too You're Everything - Bo and sugarmoney did this on Jimmy Kimmel. It is very catchy and would probably be a radio hit Lie...It's Alright - Different from anything else on the CD Willing To Try - has a kind of Elton John sound to it, does not sound like anything else on the album, very radio friendly Hold On To Me

i actually really like TRT, but i can understand people not liking it. u make me better is probably a better song all around.
i do like valley of angels even though it's not really my type of song, because bo's voice sounds great on it and you can tell he loves the song, and it's closer to what music he writes would sound like.

I love Valley of Angels, but I much prefer Bo singing it acustic, just with his guitar!

Oddly enough, VoA is showing up on Mediabase's MS chart with 6 spins. I think Bo's pushing the song to DJs as he drops in to radio stations!
Big move for TRT yesterday (+40 on the CHR panel chart). This single won't give in.

Everytime I think TRT is about to die, it gets reanimated. The song just got a big market add at last today (KRBE in Houston), and now Bo's going to be performing it live on TRL April 4th.
Way to go Clive!

The research on this must be good because it's really picking up steam in some of the markets that have been playing it for a while. It is moving faster each day.
#4 on TRL yesterday!

TRT debuted #16 on VH1 Top 20 cool! it moved up two spots to 37 on the AT40 countdown this weekend. not bad! i wonder how high it'll go. even if it starts falling i think the relative success of TRT will help the next single (YOu're Everything).

^ I agree, I think You're Everything will be easier to break on radio.

I'm so glad RCA had interest in pushing this, at first I didn't like it and I'm still not nuts about it but without this happening subsequent songs may not have been given the chance. This has opened the door for You're Everything to hopefully be a pretty big hit, but it'd still be nice for this to go Top 20.

So true! RCA has really worked this hard and I actually think they chose the right single, even if it's not the best song on the album. I think YE would have been a little 'hard-edged' for a first single. But now it will do really well.
Yay for RCA believing in Bo as much as I do!

Bo performed on TRL yesterday and was fantastic singing "The Real Thing" and also as a guest. I really enjoyed his interaction with the host. He does seem to be a truly nice person in addition to being so talented.

I heard a paid preview of TRT on KSMB 94.5 in Lafayette, Louisiana last night about 11:30pm. I think it was accompanied by a commercial too. The DJ seemed to be reading a script with some facts and info about Bos album and career. It was showcased as some type of "first listen" thing I think

#1 on VH1 Top 20!!
POP radio is crazy lol... TRT was slowing down and yesterday had a 95 move!.. part of it might be the AT 40 spins but I don't think it only was that because last week it should've had the same move.
well I don't care as long as it keeps moving lol

I don't know, I was driving thru on I-49 and caught it by chance. I've noticed TRT on several pop stations lately. I'm traveling a lot and it keeps popping up. It's found a niche in the current mix of sounds pop radio is trending to. I don't have a clue how much is payola - I only heard that one OBVIOUS payola spin

I guess that's a form of payola. Anway, he's a real friendly and genuine guy, and it's working. TRT's still got a bullet.

It's too bad the album fell out of the Top 200.
