All That Is Clay Aiken

It does not make a bit of sense to me and to many fans.
Bring Back My Love is beautiful and is Clay Aiken at his best.

According to one radio station program director, for it to be considered in being added to a playlist, it must have solid support from a good number of other AC stations and/or show positive movement on the Mediabase Chart. 


(To be added to a radio playlist it has to be played on the radio and be moving up the chart to be played on the radio.  Gotcha!)


How can this song, or any song be considered in being added to a radio playlist, if no one hears it?  
From what many have seen on yes.com is that Bring Back My Love - when it is played, it is played overnight.   Many people do not even listen to the radio at night unless you are a truck driver. 
It is also noted that when requested, we are told either they don't have the song or cannot play the song until it is added the playlist.  
OK then....


A DJ even told that to one fan.  He said he would love to play Bring Back My Love, he really like it but he valued his job and could not play it until it was added to the playlist. 


 An internet DJ tweeted that he did not understand why it is not at the top of the charts because it is great.  He can play it.


Bring Back My Love is a track on Steadfast, Clay's next CD that is to be released March 26, 2012. 

Hopefully DECCA Records  will be behind it and will push to get it played.  


As one fan said and I agree - "I hate radio politics!"

LovesClaysVoice, along with photo captures by Gerwhisp, put together another wonderful video of Clay from this past Sunday's Celebrity Apprentice.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.  
The video will revert to youtube.

I was reading at Clay Aiken News Network and saw that it was Share A Smile Day.


LoveClaysVoice created this video a couple of years ago.  It is perfect for today.
The beautiful voice of Natalie Cole and photos of Clay Aiken's wonderful smile.  
Two amazing artists in one video.  


Enjoy!

I was reading last night on Twitter.  "What happened to Clay Aiken?"  Being the good tweeter that I am, I answered with a link to Clay Aiken News Network.  


What happened to Clay Aiken?  He is working with UNICEF, touring, making albums and working with his foundation - The National Inclusion Project.  I don't know why it is, if an artist is not on repeat on the radio, people think that the artist has disappeared - not working.  Which is the farthest from the truth.  


Clay has released 5 CDs - 1  EP - 2 DVDs  and a Best Seller - Learning to Sing.  He has also performed on Broadway in Spamalot and has toured 10 or 12 times - depending on how you count them. :)


2011 was a very busy year for Clay.  Besides doing a host of interviews, he had a full schedule.  Here are a few highlights of 2011.
