Data Insight
Eight of the eleven tracks are his and two are his alone. The exception that charted highest is the Sting cover, which he had no hand in writing, and the same pattern recurs across the catalogue: the songs he did not write travel further on pop radio.
Dream Walkin' came out on Mercury Nashville in June 1997 and is certified gold. Sting duets with him on "I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying", which reached number 84 on the Billboard Hot 100.
