On May 1, 2001, Stevie Nicks released her sixth solo recording Trouble in Shangri-La, a concept album based on the highs and lows of fame. Stevie has described it as the difficulty of maintaining “Shangri-La” or staying at the top of one’s career or profession. The album includes the singles “Every Day,” “Planets of the Universe,” and “Sorcerer” (featuring Sheryl Crow), all charting well on the Billboard’s adult contemporary chart surveys.
Backed by VH1’s “Arist of the Month” campaign, Trouble in Shangri-La earned a gold certification from the RIAA for the shipment of 500,000 copies to retailers. “Planets of the Universe” (remixed by DJs Tracy Young and Illicit) topped Billboard Dance Club Play on August 11, 2001 and scored a nomination for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance at the 2002 Grammy Awards.
