Greetings, friends!
Are you up for a little experiment? Amy is out on the road working hard to promote both BEHIND THE EYES as well as airplay for the first single "Takes A Little Time" - so I thought you might enjoy adding your support to her efforts by making a phone call or two...
I am including the airplay chart numbers from the past two weeks. I'll send the numbers over the next two weeks. Let's see if making our voices heard by the local radio station will show up on the charts, shall we?
This could be a lot of fun for just a little individual effort expended. Plus, I always like being able to pull the results of things like this out of my file when discussing the positive power of the internet!
Basically, call your local pop, top 40 stations. Thank them profusely if they're already playing "Takes A Little Time". Let them know they're really missing out if they aren't. Then, we'll see what kind of impact we make. It might just be the "phone call heard 'round the world".
Thanks a heap!
Until next time...
