"Bring Me Home" is also at #41 (up from #42) on the BDS (Broadcast Data Systems) chart, which reports Billboard A/C activity. On the BDS list, she is just behind Avicii and a few slots above John Mayer, Coldplay and The Fray.

"Bring Me Home" was produced by veteran producer and artist Larry King (Soleil Moon- lead vocalist in the Michael Thompson Band & Larry King Orchestra).
