Track ends up charting

I co wrote and produced a track just over a year ago. I'd almost forgotten about it then I got an email over the weekend from the label saying it was released and this week is No.12 with a bullet on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. Doesn't mean anything for sales, but it's cool when after a while you find out a tracks getting some play. So that was a nice surprise for the weekend...

A bump at number 3 this week. Mary J Blige has leap frogged us into number 2, but I am in love with her so I can't be too disappointed.

Hey Led,

Really like the song. Great production! Actually did a remix of it. Let's hope it jumps to #1.

Hey Jens! I got a copy of your mix when you were working on it. Loved the way you reinterpreted the track. Bill has some great talent with all you guys. I also heard a mix Matty H did of Chaka Khan with Mary J Blige recently. You guys are makin me jealous...e. Good to hear from you.
Cheers,

Andy

What do mean by 'doesn't mean anything for sales'?
Don't they give you a cut of the revenues?

Anyway congrats, must feel great

Hi THX, what I meant was that The Billboard Dance charts are not necessarily a reflection of how the single is selling to the general public.
Thanks.

It's called "Give it all you got". It's moved up to #2 today. The suspense is killing me.
