    You're Not Leaving Me is my 2nd favorite on the album besides Ride, so that'd be awesome if it was a single!

    this song reminds me of a cross between When God fearing women.... and the great OLD SCHOOL country Martina sang in the mid to late 90s... I would be so happy to see this song as a single..

    A new single from any album is almost a sure Top 20 right now based on the momentum that Martina has been riding, but a delay will end the momentum and make the Top 20 very hard to reach once more.

    Yes and I wish we knew one way or another whether there is to be another single.

    I think YNLM would make a great summer hit and would do well...but Martina hasn't had 4 singles from an album since Martina was out. I doubt she will do it. For what ever reason, no one does 4 singles from the same album anymore it seems, (except Carrie and Taylor). Reba had one of THE BEST albums of her career out and stopped at 3 when she could have easily done 5 or 6. George Strait has only done 3 with his past couple of albums...and anything George Strait releases is top 5 bound! Anyhow, just not sure of the logic behind it all. I guess when the album sales drop the mindset is..make a fresh one. Well, get a fresh song on the radio and maybe you will sell even more of the same album!
    If YNLM isn't released, I'd say Martina won't have a brand new single come out til CMA Awards show time and it will be KILLER and do very well for her! Like she did with Anyway!

    I also think YNLM would be a great single, but if we don't hear anything in the next few weeks I think we can assume the album is done.

    If anyone is going to one of her upcoming shows and has access to her try asking her. Or stroll back to the sound board and ask John, he'd know.

    BTW, on a side note....George just released single #4 off of his "Twang" album, "The Breath You Take". But the title track couldn't even make it into the Top 10 when it was single #2 (bad single choice).

    For vocal proficiency, we would much, much prefer "LIES". And that is no lie!

    Oh yeah, I forgot about "Twang"
    Thanks Dave.

    Also, I love Lies the most, it's my favorite song on the album, but I think it wouldn't do well at radio...I thought I Just Call You Mine would have been a bigger hit, but I think slower songs at radio are becoming harder and harder to become hits.

    Anyhow, I am excited for anything to get shipped to radio....and SOON!!!

    Someone would have to be utterly stupid to say that Lies is not one of the most difficult songs Martina has ever recorded. It's one of my favorite songs and vocals, but the idea is to get Martina played on the radio, and I don't foresee that happening with Lies.
