I've always liked this song, sure it quite stand out for me on the album at first, but when the music video came out, I really warmed to it. Here's the top 20 of the week it came out (just for fun) Pos/LW/WoC: 01 02 02 BOB THE BUILDER - CAN WE FIX IT 02 01 02 EMINEM - STAN 03 03 03 S CLUB 7 - NEVER HAD A DREAM COME TRUE 04 NE 01 ROBBIE WILLIAMS - SUPREME 05 06 11 BAHA MEN - WHO LET THE DOGS OUT 06 05 05 LEANN RIMES - CAN'T FIGHT THE MOONLIGHT 07 04 04 DESTINY'S CHILD - INDEPENDENT WOMEN 08 08 04 PUBLIC DOMAIN - OPERATION BLADE (BASS IN THE PLACE) 09 10 07 TWEENIES - NUMBER ONE 10 NE 01 KYLIE MINOGUE - PLEASE STAY 11 07 02 BRITNEY SPEARS - STRONGER 12 09 02 WYCLEF JEAN (FT MARY J BLIGE) - 911 13 11 03 MADONNA - DON'T TELL ME 14 NE 01 CRAIG - AT THIS TIME OF YEAR 15 12 04 CRAIG DAVID - WALKING AWAY 16 14 03 DA MUTTZ - WASSUP 17 21 07 WESTLIFE - MY LOVE 18 16 03 SONIQUE - I PUT A SPELL ON YOU 19 18 05 WU-TANG CLAN - GRAVEL PIT 20 13 02 SISQO - INCOMPLETE NE 21 STORM - STORM ANIMAL NE 25 BILLIE PIPER - WALK OF LIFE NE 27 GREEN DAY - WARNING NE 34 LIONEL RICHIE - DON'T STOP THE MUSIC NE 36 KEITH 'N' SHANE - GIRL YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE of note Kylie's also at #37 in same chart with 'Kids' This post has been edited by Nina West: Jan 9 2021, 09:00 AM

We had Your Disco Needs You including radio airplay, own music video and even tv performances, that was nice. I bought Please Stay as import back then. In recent years it suddenly grew on me, still don't know why. I guess most important fact about Please Stay is that it had Santa Baby as b-side.

I never really liked santa baby but never in a million years did I think it would go on to be one of her best selling singles, it will easily go platinum now in 2021.

COMPLETELY I like the song and get enjoyment out of it every now and then, but it's inessential for me. I think in hindsight I'd have loved to see how 'Disco Down' had worked as a single in its place, or maybe even 'Butterfly' (but that song is quite "out there" to have maybe worked as a single) I do think it's one of her best and most iconic videos though, so in that respect I appreciate it being a single in her discography.

Please Stay grew on me over the years, and I don't think I ever appreciated it as much as I did during the Step Back in Time era. It's lovely!

I have always felt disco down would have been a better choice despite liking please stay. Disco down for me had christmas release written all over it. Please stay though is a really refreshing song when I do play it. Please stay and stop me from falling both have that latino vibe to them.
