February 1, 201213 yr Well I didn't say it would flop either. I meant that it would never have been huge so it's not like it was some big missed opportunity but it's not like Please Stay was massive either so it wouldn't have been some huge loss if they went with it instead of that. I'd say it could have scraped top 10 too. It wasn't an essential single at all but I would have liked to see it.
February 2, 201213 yr I'm talking UK-wise: LIGHT YEARS: Your Disco Needs You (after Please Stay, which I adore) FEVER: Fever (instead of CIMW which is mediocre), Fragile BODY LANGUAGE: Obsession & Lovin' Days X: Speakerphone & Stars APHRODITE: Aphrodite I really don't think "speakerphone" would have done well being released as a single. A lot of fans seem to like it but I find it totally bland.
February 2, 201213 yr Surely the fact alot of people like it would mean it would have been a good single choice?
February 2, 201213 yr Yes, just like Britney's fans loving Criminal made that a great single choice. Top 55 Billboard $ma$h!!!! I personally don't see any "this would make a good single" qualities in Speakerphone. It's not very catchy to my ears and I don't think it would be a great addition to her discography looking back. But then lots would say the same about my choosing Light Years as a single.
February 2, 201213 yr Has anyone mentioned the truly fantastic "We Know The Meaning Of Love" which would have been a much better single over "Never Too Late" or "Tears On My Pillow" back in 1989.
February 3, 201213 yr Has anyone mentioned the truly fantastic "We Know The Meaning Of Love" which would have been a much better single over "Never Too Late" or "Tears On My Pillow" back in 1989. Yes that was a good song, b-side to Tears On My Pillow.
February 3, 201213 yr Author Its better than tears on my pillow but i would have picked never too late anyday as a single over it, never too late remains one of my favourite pwl songs.
