Don’t stop believin’ in the power of TV

By Don Day 

Members of rock band Journey should send Sopranos creator David Chase a nice big basket of fruit. Chase used the band’s 80s hit “Don’t Stop Believin'” in the much talked about final scene of the mob drama Sunday. That scene created quite a little buzz Monday – and it was nearly impossible to miss the song. The show and all that coverage is having another benefit: The song is racing up the iTunes Top 100 chart. It was #27 when I checked last night, and as of this writing stands at #21. MTV notes the song has seen this type of bump before. When the song was included as part of a Family Guy episode, it hit #4 on the iTunes chart.
