P-Squid, you should totally post the numbers for each individual Madonna album in separate posts.
That would make me look too much like a stan. But it isn't such a bad idea.
La Toya Jackson is the self-titled debut album from American singer La Toya Jackson. It was released in 1980 in America and mainland Europe. The album is most known for "Night Time Lover", a track produced by La Toya's brother Michael Jackson, who provides background vocals on the refrain. The album peaked at #116 on the Billboard 200, #26 on the Billboard R&B charts, and #178 in the UK Top 200, making it her highest charting album. It spawned two singles: "If You Feel the Funk" and "Night Time Lover".
In order to distinguish herself from her famous brothers, The Jacksons, La Toya only wanted her first name on the album. "I begged just to have it 'La Toya'. But my father said, 'It's your last name. You got to use it.' But I wanted to see what I could do as an individual."[1]
A successful petition was gathered by her fans at ChurchofLaToya.com to persuade the label, Cherry Pop, to re-release her debut album on CD for the first time in the UK. It was released on May 22, 2006.
La Toya Jackson: From Nashville to You
It was reported in various newspapers at the time that Jackson was planning to release a country album. When questioned about whether or not Jackson planned to release such an album, her ex-husband and manager Jack Gordon said, "Yeah, we're going to turn her into the newest country heart throb."
Recording sessions for the album took place from March 20 to March 27, 1994 at Creative Recording Studios in Nashville. The tracks for the album were recorded with a live band and a team of three backing vocalists. When asked by newsapaper Times Daily why she chose to do a country album, Jackson said:
Why not? Country is something I have always liked. It's something I have always wanted to do. Actually a lot of people don't know this, but the Jacksons started with country music. My mother started singing country music to us when we were very, very young in Indiana. And it's something that kinda sticks with you, well with me it did. I've always wanted to do it, but I;ve never had the chance or the opportunity to do it. And my schedule of course wouldn't allow it, the last three years have been very, very hectic. And we had about two weeks free and this was the perfect time to come in and do this
Producer Tommy Martin recruited his friend Lee Greenwood to duet with Jackson, the result was the song "What You Don't Say." Greenwood stated of Jackson:
She is presented with a great challenge here to be accepted into the country music community. I don't think she is going to have any trouble. First of all, on these songs she is very unique. There is not a voice like hers.
Martin hoped the inclusion of Greenwood on the record would open doors for Jackson within the country music community, according to reports Martin was also hoping to get Kenny Rogers to duet with Jackson to enhance the album's chances further.

What would Isaac Newton right fanfiction about?
You know, when I'm overtired and my brain is not fully functioning you can tell because of all the mis-typed words. I write by basically responding back 'verbally' in my head and my fingers work to transcript what's happening up there onto the screen. Sometimes my fingers type the wrong form of the heard word. right=write, for example. It works really well to my benefit when writing fiction. I've had huge compliments about my dialogue!
Also, I have no idea what this thread is about. It should be labeled "Panda Squid Post Vomit"
I really wish someone would watch Dante's Cove and love it as much as I do so I could re-watch it and we could discuss.
Season one has been added to my netflix queue.

Frankly the hunky guys on the cover were all the motivation i needed.
At this point, I think I'm going to return Serial Mom unwatched. I've had it for like two weeks and haven't once felt like watching it.
Oh, ok then. I'll watch it tomorrow night when i am back at school.
My cookies turned out almost as good as my mother's. Success!
