The adds? "No" But I do think it will affect the sales picking up at the time the adds pick up. :-/ Sales follow radio airplay by at least 7 days and up to 3-4 weeks -- so the delay will not effect sales, and really will have little to do with adds. The only possible negative effect will be on requests and then it is only 3 days and really prob won't be significant. I do not know why it moved but the 2/3/12 Thursday premiere is a better date for PR and VH1. My GUESS is the push was driven by promo strategy. And here I was thinking that it was Adam's perfectionist streak showing up again. How many times did they have to tweak GNL DVD and the Acoustic Live album before he finally gave it his approval?

What happened on TakeOver hour, guys? :-/ I don't think it got played - could be wrong but I hung in until around 8:30 when it did the freeze out thing. It was #1 a few times and then dropped to the bottom - the usual stuff.

So could you also just use step #1 and gift to your second email address if you don't have anyone to gift to? I'd say test it. See if when you click the "redeem" on the email in your fandom account it downloads the single to your itunes and you get charged for it. If you do let us know what happens! ETA: I would test it again myself but unfortunately I can't see my itunes billing charges for some reason, itunes is kinda messed up on my PC It worked. I noticed that when gifting it says you can gift to multiple email addresses at once just by putting a comma in between. I think I might send some to some nieces and friends who know my crazy on his birthday and in the space where it says to put your message I'll just say "Humor me and download please. You can delete if you don't like but you may be getting the whole album too in a couple months so be warned " They will laugh but they'll do it. 8-)

: Why doesn't Yahoo moderate their comment section on Lindsay Parker's site? God, the nastiness. Makes me sad. No way to report the jerks without a Facebook or Yahoo account, which I don't have... I reported them but they take 24 hours to review comments. I have reported those several times, I get a form letter back. I've tweeted Lindsey that it is off-putting to readers, but nothing happens. I just don't go there anymore.

Question - what does it mean when your local hac station played a few test spins of BTIKM back in December, hasn't added it yet, hasn't played it since...but has suddenly started playmg iihy and wwfm in semi regular rotation?? Is too much to hope for that they're warming up their listeners before they add the song? Or does this mean they're never going to add it?

I think we should tweet starting 12:01 AM on the 29th unless the twitter boycott happens and extends into that time. Don't know if this has been answered, but Adam is in Europe. We need to start his BD greetings by 5:00, Eastern Time on Saturday. And screw the Boycott! I am tweeting Adam his Happy Birthday greeting and the Retweet about buying his single! ;D Yeah, I'm with you. My guess is that the boycott won't even be noticeable on Twitter. I'm not going to worry about it.
