If you were able to choose the 5 singles which would help the album sell the most and the order in which they were released, which would you choose??

 

 

Mine would have been:

 

1) Candy Bling (video with Nick in it and them being romatic--to get more attention and publicity for the release of the album) :heart:

2) Angel Cry (the best ballad on the CD--I think it would do just as good as "We Belong Together" with an awesome video)

3) It's A Wrap (video with Mariah having attitude about her man being a dog--sort of like a Beyonce "Irreplaceable"-type video) :thumbup:

4) Laguishing (The Interlude) and I Wanna Know What Love Is (video with Languishing being the intro and leads to IWKWLI song)

5) Up Out My Face (I am not overly into this song, but it would be a great attitude song to end the Memoirs era!!)

Not releasing Obsessed and I Want To Know What Love Is would be criminal. So those 2 would be first for me...

 

1. I Want To Know What Love Is

2. Obsessed

3. Angels Cry

4. Up Out My Face

5. More Than Just Friends

 

Not necessarily my favourites from the album but the ones I think would perform the best. Fair enough Obsessed wasn't #1 but it's definitely been a hit, once again climbing into the Top10 this week. :D

1. Obsessed

2. Angels Cry

3. I want to know what love is (Would be better for a feb release date, around for valentines day!)

4. Standing O

5. H.A.T.E.U.

 

Defo the 5 standout album tracks for me!!

Obsessed

Know What Love Is

Ribbon

Angels Cry

#1 H.A.T.E.U.

#2 Obsessed

#3 Up Out My Face

#4 I Want to Know What Love Is

#5 Standing O

01 ∙ Obsessed ∙ Song of '09.

02 ∙ I Want To Know What Love Is ∙ Being a high-profile cover version has already got this a load of attention and it should go down well across Europe I reckon.

03 ∙ Up Out My Face ∙ The most commercial song left on Memoirs and instantly catchy, not to mention the brilliance of the Harvard University adlib!

04 ∙ H.A.T.E. U. ∙ Not that commercial but a clear standout on the album and a massive fan favourite so it would seem silly to avoid it.

05 ∙ Inseperable ∙ God, the chorus is so smooth on this. Radio would give it sufficient play for a fifth single.

1. HATEU

2. Obsessed

3. Standing O

4. I wan to know what love is

5. Angels Cry

Oh, it is. I think most people realise it's not very radio friendly, even though it's one of the strongest cuts.

Candy Bling is utter crap and as far as I can see it's no fan favourite :heehee:
I heard her version of I know what love is, it is good she sing very well.

If you heard the type of music they play here on American radio, I think it would be played alot here. That actually isn't a compliment to American radio. I love Candy Bling and it would chart very well here. It has a smooth sound and her vocals are great on it, I think.

My choice of 5 singles would be:

 

1 - Obsessed - August 2009 (open the album with a bang and the song caused a little media coverage due to the fact its supposedly aimed at Eminem)

2 - Angels Cry - November 2009 (This is the best ballad on the album and released a few weeks before xmas would ensure its a smash as its got the xmasy vibe to it)

3 - Standing O - February 2010 (This song could potentially work as the 3rd single. It would show another side to the album)

4 - Up Out My Face - May 2010 (Perfect song to be released heading into the summer)

5 - Hate U - September 2010 (Another strong ballad on the album which is along the lines of some of her previous ballads)

 

I would also go with a 6th single which would be either:

 

1 - It's A Wrap

2 - Betcha Gon Know

3 - Languishing

I disagree, completely. Oh, and I do know what is played on American radio as I only left the US a few years ago ;).

It'd do well on Urban AC, but it's too chilled out to do well on Pop. Definitely not a strong single choice.

Obsessed

HATE U

I Want To Know What Love Is

Up Out My Face

Angels Cry

 

I was pretty much right :lol:

Edited by danieljohn.

Freaky! In retrospect I'd go with:

 

01 Obsessed

02 Standing O

03 Up Out My Face ft.Nicki Minaj

04 I Want To Know What Love Is

 

No fifth.

I would have gone with:

 

1.Obsessed

2.I Want To Know What Love Is

3.Standing O

 

End.
