The latest single by the Supreme Miss American Idol, Season 4 winner Carrie Underwood, has made a big leap up the Billboard HOT 100 all the way to #28. The duet with Brad Paisley, Remind Me, is a wonderful love song that is perfect to dance a shadow to.
The 2nd album by Season 7 Miss American Idol winner, David Cook, "This Loud Morning" makes its debut at #7 on the Billboard Albums chart with sales of 46,000. His new album is off to a slow start compared to his 2008 self-titled debut. That album entered at #3 with 280,000 in opening week sales. It came six months after he won The Miss American Idol crown so a big bow wasn't terribly surprising. However, his new album has yet to find a hit single and he doesn't have the glow of "Idol" to aid him. The new album's lead track, "The Last Goodbye," has so far only dented one of the Billboard airplay charts at #29 on the Adult Pop Songs list.
Also on the charts this week, The Season 10 Miss American Idol winner Scotty McCreery managed to sell 40,000 copies of a Wal-Mart exclusive five-song (and $5) EP "American Idol Season 10 Highlights". That was good enough for a #10 debut.
Things to look forward to include a new single coming out next week for Season 10 Miss American Idol finalist, Pia Toscano, who just recently signed with Interscope Records.
And the wait may finally be over for the new music from Season 1 Miss American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson. A song called Let Me Down leaked, but their is still uncertainty if this will actually be the first single or even if it will appear on the new album that is scheduled to be released this fall.
