Nice milestone and it's exactly a year since the album was released. The Billboard chart this week a year ago, showed Elliott's debut as the #3 album of the week with 90K sold.

Congrats Elliott!
"Notable achievement for an independent artist" is like the understatement of the century. How often is it that a new and independent artist reaches gold? Again, congratulations, Elliott. You are a true success story.

desertstargal - March 27, 2008 03:46 AM (GMT)
I have a WILD idea - what if each of us would send E some song ideas - maybe some great lyrics, or a line or a chorus?
If we do that, with no attachment to the outcome or ownership, they can be used as a springboard for him to write and create some of the songs for the new cd.
It can truly be a fan collaboration - we might have to sign some agreement about forfeiting royalties, but hey I am game and I think it would be fun.
What do you think??
And Brandon, can you run this past E and see if he would be open to it? Just like our prayers are empowering part of Amanda's miracle, our contributions - ideas, can empower a platinum level selling cd for E.
How cool would that be?

Flipboy5 - March 27, 2008 04:09 AM (GMT)
How many of us can account for that?
I'm guessing at least 1,000. Yay E! Yay Etrain!

Indeed! When you consider that this is a debut album of an independent artist, the achievement becomes even more notable :)
Congratulations on selling 501,000 albums Elliott!! :)
