Now that the holiday season is just around the corner, there is the possibility of hearing Clay on the radio. This week, his song, Oh, Holy Night re-entered the Billboard charts at #78. We can only hope that this is just the beginning of many weeks of radio play.
Musicfan,
Thank you for the overview of charities for which Clay Aiken is working this season. He has set an excellent example for his fans to make a difference in the world we live in.
Have a great week!
Caro
I'd bid on him any day of the week 😉 Thanks for the information!
Clay has always said it's important that he makes a difference.. And he sure has, thanks in part to a lot of his generous fans who are just doing that….What a team!!!!!
I hope Clay gets radio play for his Christmas music this season. I requested a few months ago to our radio station to Play "O Holy Night" or anything from Merry Christmas with love. Thought I would mention it before the Playlist was made up. I'm keeping my fingers crossed….
Thanks as always Musicfan for all your information and hard work bringing us the goods on Clay.
Hugs,
Judy

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. This is really a nice package and great of him to do it for Unicef!
Besides loving Clay's voice, I certainly admire him for all the charities he has been involved in including his own. Plus I would imagine he has done some things which we did not know about. He certainly wants to make this world a better place for everyone.I so admire him for that.
Clay is always helping out in any way he can. Many of his fans bid on these auctions and that helps these organizations. Very proud of him.
Yes, I hope his Christmas music gets played a lot this year. I just love O Holy Night and Mary Did You Know.
We're approaching the time of year when it's okay for radio to play Clay. I just don't get why he's ignored the rest of the year. Oh well, I will enjoy hearing Clay on the airways even if it's for a short time.
Thanks for the articles, It's not Christmas without Clay, I really miss him. I've seen all his Christmas tours. At least he'll be on the radio with his beautiful voice singing the songs we love.
