• All That Is Clay Aiken reflects on ATDW, 1 year later -

  When "A Thousand Different Ways" dropped, the critics said that Clay Aiken should not release an albums of covers as his second pop album. It has since gone gold with little radio play and promotion. Not too bad, huh?
  
  One thing I do know is I love "A Thousand Different Ways". I do not think there has been a single day that I have not played this album since it was released. There is one song on this album that I wish that it had been released as a single. Of course my opinion is that it is a "classic".
