A recent Nielsen study found singer Elton John, who’s long been recognized for his music and his outspokenness on LGBT rights, and singer-songwriter Barry Manilow, to be highly influential. The two were viewed as such by 56% and 47% of Americans, respectively. Influential performers like these two helped set the stage on which a new generation of LGBT musicians continue to thrive. This past year, Sam Smith became the first openly gay artist to win the GRAMMY for Best Pop Vocal Album, and i n 2009 Adam Lambert was the runner-up on American Idol. And now, Lambert is considered a trendsetting LGBT entertainer, seen as one by 24% of Americans who recognize him. LGBT consumers may be most likely to recognize EDM (electronic dance music) artists, according to Nielsen’s upcoming 2015 LGBT Consumer Report, but the influence of rock and pop artists such as these can’t be ignored......more

This is such great news. From watching that short intro video, I think that Tim Cook is actually a fan of Adam's music. Also, perhaps WBs made a deal ~ Adam will do a free concert for your employees if you Hot List Ghost Town. The employees certainly seemed to be delighted with Adam! I wonder how GT suddenly rose about 30 spots. Was it the rise that led to it being on the hot list, or it being on the hot list that led to the rise? Or perhaps all the Apple employees suddenly decided to buy it off iTunes, or perhaps it was given free to them, or maybe it was something else altogether? The mind boggles at all the possibilities...

I was in our local Walmart the other day and looked high and low for TOH - and there it was on the top shelf in a display of several artists where it said "If you like this" (didn't say what, lol) "Try This!" There were 7 TOH CDs, fewer of the other artists, so I don't know if they all started out with the same number or if TOH had recently been restocked. I'm in a rinky-dink town of about 20,000 where I know only one other person who even knows who Adam is... I'll try to stop in again next week to see if there's any progress. I hope they restocked. I'm is a rinky-dink town of 15,000 and after the initial 4 sold that first week (2 bought by me) they have not restocked period. I look each week and nothing. Don't think they would sell many, but would be nice to have a few on display. Hey guys I am in a rinky dink Florida town that I love I am always check on TOH for sales and I have to admit moving it to a place to be seen. I bought two also...lol

And getting past the 10M audience impressions may be part of it, too. A perfect storm - in a good way..

GT also moved back up 1 spot in the Mega Top 50 in the Netherlands.
Ending this week in the best positions so far on the three charts!
