Bucky Covington's "It's Good to Be Us" is one of the contenders during today's CMT Power Picks video- challenge show. The program starts at noon ET, and Bucky's matchup will happen during the first half of the hour; click here to go directly to the Power Picks main page or click that graphic below, hit the "Vote Now" button, and stand by to cast your vote for Bucky. (Thanks, Laura!)Updated at 12:20 p.m.: Looks like there might have been a glitch on Power Picks today--most of us got a single-matchup online voting screen, and there were no percentages given via onscreen graphics during the broadcast. (Garth Brooks and Blake Shelton are the current options in the voting pop-up at post time, and have been for most of the show.) We'll keep our eyes peeled for a rematch...
While you're there at CMT.com, be sure to check out Bucky's video Christmas card to you! (He's beginning to look a lot like Santa, isn't he? Hmmm...) You can hear Bucky singing about Santa at his MySpace, naturally--and "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" makes a great gift, too. (Ahem!) Snag it now at WalMart Music, Yahoo Music or iTunes.I'm off to a cross-town appointment, but come on back later today for a full post with all the day's news. Have a lovely Tuesday, and remember to call and request "It's Good to Be Us" at your local country stations. (We're still throwing that confetti--Bucky's Top 25 on the both the Mediabase weighted and Top 500 charts--but with a mid-chart as hot as this one, every request matters, y'all. We'll keep it up...)
Edited to add a thank you to Sunscreen of Bucky Truck Stop fame for tipping us off to this link--did you know that Bucky Covington's got a whole TVGuide.com profile these days? Bookmark this page for links to video clips from selected network and cable TV appearances, including this excellent CNN The Buzz interview that you might have missed. (Some of the clips are IE-only.) Have fun!
More very soon--Winnie
Oh Bucky in a Santa hat is just so much cuteness! :D
ReplyDeleteYou know, I still miss the cowboy hat--but the Santa hat's pretty cool, too. :) Thanks for stopping in!
ReplyDeleteI couldnt do power picks and I was sitting by desk top with laptop in my lap to vote on both.....waaaah. No percentages were on screen. FREAKY! So we lost...................not fair~
ReplyDeleteThere's definitely a glitch today--tuned in here, too, but saw nothing but Garth and Blake as voting options online--no percentages or Power Picks graphics on screen either. Hmmm!
ReplyDeleteI left a couple of messages on the PP message board with my displeasure about it not working but still naming a winner...hmmmm
ReplyDeleteWinnie, please go check out Idolchatter at USA today...good news about Bucky but I need you to discipher it for me..I cannot find the chart he is referring to..year end chart numbers(???).
Hi Anon! I have a feeling the year end charts won't turn up on the Radio & Records site until next week (the newspapers probably got an advance copy) but Bucky's "A Different World" is in a very impressive spot--the #34 country song for the entire year is an accomplishment to be proud of!
