Analysis

Good week overall. As you can tell, the weekend was the peach of the week, as they say. Could be better, could be worse.

Forecast

Already a great week and we just started. Request hard this week, Shania fans, and watch the magic. The video will kick in and the "buzz" in the press as we get closer to the release of the GH will help too. I think this week could really be big, but we must request hard!

Real Timmins, Not in Movie. Vic Power, the mayor of Timmins, Shania's hometown, has come out with negative statements towards the production company that is currently shooting the Shania Movie in Sudbury. The mayor was very dissapointed that the movie was not being shot in Shania's real hometown, but in Sudbury instead. According to one of the articles, "The mayor of Shania Twain's hometown says it's a "horrible miscarriage of justice" that a film about the singing superstar won't be shot there.
"A movie about Shania Twain should be shot in Timmins," said Vic Power. 
"To me, that's a bit like making a movie about the Maple Leafs and filming it in Montreal."
A camera crew will be coming to the northern Ontario community to shoot background images of the city for the upcoming CBC-TV biopic, but no scenes will be filmed.
That doesn't sit well with Power. " To read the full article, go HERE! (Thanks to Jud, from the STNAOFC Messageboard!)

"Party For Two" Chart Analysis! Here is an exclusive chart analysis brought to you by Shania Boards member ojibiwanqueenst:
Party For Two Week-ending Charts

Analysis
Great week! The jumps in spins and audience have leveled out, still gaining and somewhat decieving because the gains are not as huge. This could be due to the effect of the hurricanes in the southeast.

Forecast
Look for a moderate week. The video should boost spins but the affect may not impact until next week. Because Party For Two seems to be slowing, I expect a pickup in fan requests. This too will boost the song. Also, still 3 songs with 100+ losses, and more with 50+ losses. This song should go Top 20 this week."
