Freemans Headed Back To Number One?

I was just glancing over the February Singing News Top 80 chart and noticed the Freemans have a song titled "He Chose Me" sitting at number four this month. More significantly, the song debuted at number eight on the January chart, surpassing debut singles on the same chart by Ernie Haase & Signature Sound, the Gaither Vocal Band, Gold City, Legacy Five, Three Bridges and the Booth Brothers.

If this song reaches number one, it will be the third time for the Freemans. They last took the top spot in January 1997 with "Hello In Heaven."

Actually, if I'm reading their website correctly, they already know "He Chose Me" is going to be a number one song. That's how the text reads, but then the photo link refers to it debuting at number eight for January, and has quotes from individual DJs who say it's their number one for the month.

The new CD hasn't been released yet, by the way, but they already have the performance soundtrack available for purchase. It's a smart way to work the system...get a single out there first, then release the recording. With a big hit already, and it being an independent release, I hope they have decent distribution set up for this new recording.
