There aren't going to be many singers as great as Haley (or as much of a perfect fit), but there are certainly talented enough people out there that PMJ can replace Haley, Morgan, and Ariana when they move on to bigger and better things.

Haley has shown that she is loyal, wherever her journey takes her, I tend to think that if the timing and song is right, and Scott calls, she would do it.

As dizzying as the recent events have been, it's only the beginning and we haven't seen yet (though we think it should be no problem) Haley headline a tour of her own. Plus there's also that we're not aware that she's close to finding a manager to take on the increased activity as well as organizing appearances, I expect that Haley will still tour with PMJ in the near future.

In a year, we can see where she stands. Hopefully by then she would have finished or be in the midst of touring to support her own music

She has stayed loyal to Casey, Loyal to her High School Jazz band mentor (guest singer Dec. 16) Loyal to her parents & extended family, Loyal to her fans. Even loyal to American Idol who didn't treat her with the respect she deserved...so I agree with Tusk that she will remain loyal to Scott & her PMJ sisters if her schedule allows it.

As things progress she can remain loyal and make special appearances and the like, or who knows, maybe the fanfare dies down and she continues to tour periodically as before. But I don't think Scott is interested in being a supporting band for one performer or even to be dependent on three. Loyalty isn't an issue as I see it. I don't know what happens, just that my thought was it is the beginning of the end (of this phase of Haley's career, which includes the way it has been with PMJ).

It is just the beginning of this stage in Haley's carrer -- she's playing Room 5 tonight after all. And I hope she does some of the upcoming tour dates with PMJ. Europe, maybe too.

No one's suggesting Scott and PMJ be Haley's 'back up band', change is the only constant, in everything, not just our "Haley world".

Morgan is her own artist, as is Haley as is Scott (PMJ) ....for that matter, as is Casey. Just as Caley is magical, Haley and Casey are their own artists, but they enjoy their creative synergy, so have a blast being creative together. That is what Scott has in PMJ, a musical synergy cocktail, a flavour for every taste, that leaves room for different accents.

Quote: just that my thought was it is the beginning of the end (of this phase of Haley's career, which includes the way it has been with PMJ).

It hasn't even been a year since Haley began her d'alliance w/ PMJ, the way you word it, "The way it's been..." makes it sound longer, which is kind of funny, if you think about it.

How long have we been waiting for something to 'happen' for Haley? I mean a year ago she was performing psychedelic music at festivals with a musician content to hitchhike to his next gig, then there's the 'duet' who were so exctied about the buzz from Haliens for anything w/ Haley's voice on it, that they broke up even before the iTunes was released

I guess my point is, I think Haley w/ PMJ has more legs to go and although everything comes to an end, I think there are still chapters to go in the story of Haley and PMJ

I'm still kind of upset we never got that duet.

Haley seems to be able to do what she wants. That being said, my guess is she's going to want to tour with her own music, and at some point focus on her writing and selling her own music.

That's not to say there won't be more collaborations. As others have said, she's a loyal one. And PMJ has been great for her, and she's been great for PMJ. But I don't expect that to be her primary musical focus.

+yechan Moon The unlikes are probably from the copyright purists that don't want to see this highjacked from the real official youtube & itunes produced by Wrigley.

Vids are filling a void. I would think ole would put a video up, but perhaps they are contractually prevented from competing with the gum commercial in that way and at this time.

Thing is, The Extra vid doesn't have "Haley Reinhart" searchable in youtube, her name isn't in the title or description, so when people search for it, the Extra vid won't show up.... so I get why these other vids are getting the traffic. People want to look Haley and the song up.

I tweeted Extra if they could add Haley's name in the description. If they'd do that, people would be directed to their ad instead of the uploaded ones

(Also noticed that people have uploaded to a few soundcloud accounts too )

The extra video does come up if you search Haley's name, but non official commercials come up first.
