Title: One Word Debuting On TRL Today
leashfour - December 13, 2007 08:37 PM (GMT)
I just found out that One Word is debuting on TRL today. Not sure if everyone knows about this already but it was news to me.
I had MTV on in the background and suddenly heard One Word being played. I hit rewind (love my DVR) and it was a TRL commercial saying they'll be debuting new music by "Elliott Yamin from American Idol" (and a couple other artists I didn't pay attention to). Then they played a clip of One Word at the end. I thought that was pretty cool.

That's very important - thanks for the heads up!

You're welcome. This is definitely a great thing.
I wasn't sure if I should post because I thought maybe everyone already knew. You guys are always way ahead of me.
(The show just started and they've mentioned Elliott twice so far.)

GOOD!!, we should be seeing sales go up. Is Elliott goona be there. and when is he going to put his video on his youtube account???
leashfour - December 13, 2007 08:49 PM (GMT)
They haven't said anything about him being there, waleed. I think it's just the video.

Great news, I knew we just have to be patient.
:welcome: waleed

They just mentioned him right before they went to commercial.

Why is this a secret? Why isn't it on the myspace? Isquad? I'm a little frustrated.

I heard a clip of OW just before they went to commercial!!!!
jansidol - December 13, 2007 09:19 PM (GMT)
YaY....video is playing now
MIMIC880 - December 13, 2007 09:22 PM (GMT)
They mispronounced the title of the video....TWICE. lol
They kept calling it "One World."
kagey - December 13, 2007 09:23 PM (GMT)
woohoo, that was great but both announcers called it One World????
leashfour - December 13, 2007 09:23 PM (GMT)
One World? Ummm, it's One WORD TRL! Oh well, they said his last name right at least, lol.
ETA: You guys beat me to it.

Right! Just as long as they play the video...they can call it whatever they want!! :tisdseason:

I wish MTV.com had the OW video under MTV Picks or MTV Premiers but they don't. Right now you still have to search the video by artist
It's here if anyone wants to see or help the hits for it

I don't get it either. TRL is a big thing not to announce. I only found out through pure luck. We're having a huge snowstorm, so I happened to be working at home today.
ETA: Could it have been a last-minute addition to the show? Seems unlike him to overlook something this important. At the very least, we'll usually get an iSquad email.

They sure seem casual about a lot of things these days.

I'm beginning to get more optimistic about OW, very happy about this. Also, this is the first time I have gone to this site and was pleased to see that you can access all of the lyrics to Elliott's songs. I think kids like to sing along so maybe this will also increase requests.
Also, just because this site is too darn non-controversial today and needs a little debate, THIS version has lots of the model in the white room and only the long shot of the final kiss. (But possibly we've already beaten this horse to death LOL).
alienhamster - December 14, 2007 12:00 AM (GMT)
Whoa! Wha? Like PoorMe said above, why the heck did no one know about this beforehand?
Can we vote for TRL right now? If so, someone please describe how.
ohioguy45780 - December 14, 2007 12:30 AM (GMT)
I'm sorry, I hate to criticize, BUT, I agree...
this should have been on the MySpace! this should have been promoted by iSquad!
now, we can request and say that we "saw it on MTV!!"
arghhhhh.............
harleywoman - December 14, 2007 01:07 AM (GMT)
Maybe, just maybe, Elliott and his team didn't know about it either. Like someone posted up thread, might have been last minute. I'm just happy it was shown whether I saw it or not. :1word:

yea that :elliottski:

hmmm...nah, Hickory/Sony would have had to send the video to them.
They would have known in advance. Maybe they see this as a way of getting potential play, since VH1 is basically on hiatus.
Can we vote for this on TRL now??
I thought TRL was going off the air...are they still only airing LIVE twice weekly?

Just because they sent it to them doesn't meant they knew they were going to air it. It meant they hoped they would. I wouldn't worry too much - it's GREAT that it aired, but MTV hardly ever plays videos any more and TRL is in flux - still it was important exposure.
ohioguy45780 - December 14, 2007 03:26 AM (GMT)
I'm certainly not worried about it; not my video or my career. I'm here to simply support as a fan, and I continue to worry that he's not getting his money's worth in the promotional department.
alienhamster - December 14, 2007 03:58 AM (GMT)
Another issue: the vid is still not on his official youtube page last I checked. If I had any say, I'd get that thing there ASAP and also post it as a reply to that duet. The vid needs traffic, and I can't understand why people are sitting on it.
I Love Elliott - December 14, 2007 05:28 AM (GMT)
GREAT NEWS!!!
TRL and MTV are fantastic exposure.
Hopefully radio stations will take notice.
Let's all keep requesting!!!
