Quote:Ready to rock around the Christmas tree? 45 new music releases can help with holiday cheerThe list is in alphabetical order and BICO doesn't appear until #30. It would have been #1 if they had used Casey Abrams' name.
...Haley Reinhart & Casey Abrams, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” (19 Recordings). Maybe you couldn’t get enough of the quirky “American Idol” finalists this season. If so, here’s a jazz-infused duet. Digital single, available on iTunes.

"(19 Recordings)" - that's interesting. Does that mean BICO was an investment by 19 management in Haley and Casey and not an Interscope-driven project?

Boston Herald, The Edge, "Ear Candy" - The best Christmas releases
Rating system:
3 candy canes: Nice!
2 candy canes: So-so
1 candy cane: Naughty (not so nice)
Quote:There are some great 2011 Christmas-theme releases. There are also bombs by Bieber, Chicago, the “Glee” cast and more.
...“Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” Haley Reinhart and Casey Abrams
(2 Candy Canes) — These “American Idol” lovebirds do a shockingly solid take on the slinky, sexy winter anthem.

"So-so" is a bad descriptor that won't produce sales. I would look at his rating scale this way:
3 candy canes: Really Nice!
2 candy canes: Not Bad
1 candy cane: Naughty

Idolchatter of USA Today on RADIO AIRPLAY of Idols:
Quote:Dec 05, 2011
By Brian Mansfield, USA TODAY
This is the time of year when radio charts slowing down, and older tracks fall away to make room for holiday tunes. So the top three looks the same as last on the American Idol airplay chart: Kelly Clarkson's Mr. Know It All, followed by Daughtry's Crawling Back to You in a distance second place, then the Brad Paisley/Carrie Underwood duet, Remind Me, in third.
...The holiday tunes keep heating up, with Carrie Underwood's Do You Hear What I Hear taking over for Kelly Clarkson's My Grown Up Christmas List as the week's most played in the Idolverse. Haley Reinhart and Casey Abrams' Baby, It's Cold Outside shows up at No. 83 on the Idol airplay chart, and several other songs makes their season debuts: Mandisa's Angels We Have Heard on High and Christmas Makes Me Cry, Carrie's O Holy Night and The First Noel; and Clay Aiken's Winter Wonderland and Hark the Herald Angels Sing/O Come All Ye Faithful medley.
That's the highest of Idols that were not ranked the week before. The number in parenthesis is apparently the number of spins:
83 NA Haley Reinhart/Casey Abrams Baby, It's Cold Outside (104)
89 NA Mandisa, Angels We Have Heard On High (67)
92 NA Carrie Underwood, O Holy Night (59)
94 NA Mandisa, Christmas Makes Me Cry (56)
97 NA Clay Aiken, Winter Wonderland (50)
99 NA Carrie Underwood, The First Noel (46)
100 NA Clay Aiken, Hark The Herald/O Come All Ye Faithiful (41)

BTW, congratulations to Scotty McCreery. I guess his new album just went gold 500,000 copies, it was released on the fourth. Way to go Scotty but just remember, Haley will have her debut album too. I'm counting on her album going gold, I mean she has to have a half 1 million fans.
RE: "Baby It's Cold Outside" VIDEO. Single to be released 11/21 - Miguel - 12-05-2011
I'm sure Haley does have that many fans but much is going to ride on the quality of the album and whether there is a hit single that gets radio/television airplay.
Quote:(Scotty) also racked the highest first-week sales of any solo country artist this year, moving 196,739 units. - The Hollywood Reporter
James Durbin sold about 28,000 albums the first week. And as of last week Lauren hadn't sold as many in total as Scotty did in his first week:
Quote:James Durbin, Memories of a Beautiful Disaster (28,000, debut, 28,000) (#36 BB200)
Lauren Alaina, Wildflower (18,000, +107%, 162,000) (#74 BB200)

Not the most flattering pictures, but I suppose any publicity is good publicity.

Insane? How about playful, silly, lighthearted, sexy. I suppose seductive too, since he's so obsessed.
