[edit] Chart Success
"Candy" was the debut and lead single of Moore's first album So Real. It performed moderately well on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking just outside the Top 40, at #41. Despite this, the song is the most successful single ever recorded by Mandy Moore. Internationally, the single received more success peaking at #6 in the UK and #2 in Australia. Its music video was nearly retired from TRL: it spent 61 days at the countdown. If the video was released nowadays, it would easily retire, due to the video run limit reduction from 65 to 50 days.
