Obviously this is all speculation, but I think it was apparent pretty quick that NCOE was DOA. I think maybe RCA just decided that it would be better to save their resources (money) rather than push something that wasn't going to happen. There is no way it didn't get attention. He sang it on Idol, Radio promo all over the world, many requests. It's a good song and fits radio. Something else that should have pushed it didn't happen. There's plenty of songs on the radio that some people like and others that some don't. No way to tell which ones will connect until they are played. I think there's enough interest in Adam to get him played. Could it be his label didn't push enough, that would be my guess. :-/ Most of the radio promo was for BTIKM. I just think NCOE didn't connect with its audience.

I just think NCOE didn't connect with its audience. But the PD's said that's what they wanted. I think the PD's were full of shiite and RCA should have gone with the terrifying "Trespassing." I don't know if the results would be any different. But we saw with PLL, it does make a difference.

Thanks everyone for creating the whole picture and what a most glorious image! So cliche, but appropriate for the venue, Adam is aging like fine wine.
Gelly- thank you for finding and posting the picture showing his whole outfit. Beautiful.

I think maybe RCA just decided that it would be better to save their resources (money) rather than push something that wasn't going to happen. It actually wasn't DOA. It did quite well, with radio adds, for the first 4 weeks. My gut feeling is that the stations felt that it wasn't connecting (Probably right around the time they would have been pushing the video) Also, sales were not great. It's a shame because Adam is such a visual artist. Everytime VH1 played the BTIKM video, there would be a sales bump on i-Tunes! I do not have the answers to the mysteries of single promo. Well, that's kind of what I meant. A month in and you could tell that it wasn't happening.

I must remember that I hadn't listened to radio in years and now do only because I'm waiting to hear Adam. Obviously my demograhic isn't relevant anymore and with all the talk early on that his fans were older didn't help him at all. Makes it much harder to convince PD's that his music will connect! ???
ETA: he is still a great success and will continue to be :wub:
