It'll get more serious roll out probably with a TV premiere on an NFL football game, major TV show,etc. I doubt they'll just release it quietly and pray for the best. I think Cook's fans will be just as excited as Archie's when it is released so they'll be plenty of "OMG, it's coming" to go around. Cook will def get major promo for the single.

Does that add any pressure for you to succeed? </strong> Look, you only get one shot to come out with a great first record. I can't speak for Archie or Kristy, but maybe they just work faster than I do. I've spent a lot of time in the writing process and really trying to make sure that these songs are me. Whenever my record comes out, as long as it's good, I'm happy. And hopefully, everybody else will be. <strong> How's the sound shaping up so far?</strong> It's a rock record, but I also feel like it's not going to be a standard rock record. There are some twists and turns on it. I kind of forced myself to be more open as a songwriter than I think I ever had been before. These songs might be of a vague nature, lyrically, but they'll also be pretty firm snapshots of my life à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬'  just overall. The last year of my life been's great, but I think to discredit the last 24 would be a waste." I like what Cookie has to say right Here:

Because I don't think Cook will have the same type of "ohmigosh, ashley it's coming!" promotion with a prescheduled, featured in-person debut on one of the country's largest radio stations. I think Cook's single will just "appear" on the radio, and, hopefully, it will gradually build steam.

Also, while Carrie did not sing "I'll Stand By You" as a competitor, her version was on the show for Idol Gives Back week, and I love Carrie to death, but I think the fact that her version of the song was on the show during IGB gave that song a boost in purchases. So, really, David A. and Kelly are the only idols to have songs debut in the top 10 without any exposure on the show. That's a great accomplishment for David A.! Congrats to him!

Nothing is a given of course, but I really believe that the Davids will be the most successful AI Top 2 tandem to date. We'll see what happens. Both guys are off to a great start. With this impressive debut on the Billboard Hot 100, more major markets should be adding <em>Crush</em> to their playlists in the next couple of weeks so airplay should pick up considerably.
