Taylor Hicks - Taylor Hicks album cover | |||||||||||||||
Taylor Hicks is the eponymous major label debut album by American Idol fifth-season winner Taylor Hicks. The album was released on December 12, 2006 in the United States by Arista Records in association with 19 Recordings Limited, nearly seven months after Hicks won the reality-talent competition in May.
The album debuted at the number two spot on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling 298,000 copies in its first week. Within one month of its release, Taylor Hicks was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for shipping over one million copies, though it has only sold about 661,000 copies to date. Hicks coined the phrase "modern whomp" to describe the album's sound—an amalgam of soul, blues, funk, and Cajun influences with a contemporary twist. The first single from the album is the ballad "Just to Feel That Way". Track listing: 1. "The Runaround" (Loren Gold, James Renald) – 3:13 2. "Dream Myself Awake" (Rob Thomas) – 3:38 3.
