Both Our Artists of the Week & Demi Lovato Release New Singles

It was an interesting week for EdgeMusic on iTunes. This past Sunday, we name Ashley Tisdale and KSM our EdgeMusic Artists of the Week after tying for 1st place. This past Tuesday, both of them have released new singles on iTunes. Ashley Tisdale released a song called "Overrated", which is off her upcoming album "Guilty Pleasure". iTunes is apparently counting down to the album release by releasing a song off her album every 2 weeks leading up to the week her album drops. They already have "It's Alright, It's OK" and "Masquerade" out. On July 7th, they will release "What If", and "Acting Out" will be out July 21st. This song isn't as good as "Masquerade", but it's a lot better than her 1st single "It's Alright, It's OK". Definitely check it out.

KSM released a song called "I Want You To Want Me". As we count down to seeing them Wednesday with David Archuleta and Demi Lovato, they cover a song from Cheap Trick, who we'll also see when they open up for Def Leppard (May 11 - 25, 2008) on August 18th. The song will be featured in the upcoming ABC Family show "10 Things I Hate About You". It certainly sounds better than all the 89 covers of this song.

Also this past week, Demi Lovato (April 26 - May 3, 2009) also released her 1st single "Here We Go Again", the title track on her upcoming second album. This is the only song on the album that Demi Lovato has not written, as she wrote all the rest. Whatever the acoustic rock style that will be displayed on her new album sounds like, we're glad there's at least one song that keeps the sound from her superior debut album, "Don't Forget". Buy it on iTunes, and request it on the radio so that it does good on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was #23 on the iTunes 100 Songs until Michael Jackson's death resurged song downloads and took over the chart. It's at #45 right now, but it could still debut good, since the Billboard Hot 100 doesn't allow old songs to re-chart.
