I could have probably done without it, especially re-promoting it a year later. I don't feel like it did wonders for her credibility.

No it didn't do wonders but it didn't really do much harm either although kiss me once was a far bigger disappointment for me than the Christmas album.

Disco and Golden outsold both and are much superior.

Finally it's untied and Light Years makes it across the line and progresses to the next round after a well fought battle.
