Posted March 29, 200718 yr Just having a bit of a ponder here :lol: If IWCY had been released before Mixed Up World would the album have done any better? I know 'if's are pretty pointless lol, but listening to both had me thinking. IWCY was such a better song, both did fairly well on the charts but would IWCY have enticed more people to buy the album? I know MUW never hooked me in, and i never did buy Shoot From The Hip.
March 29, 200718 yr I loved Mixed Up World alot at the time but tbh i was more into Emma Bunton - Maybe at the time :lol: but i think I Won't Change You might have just been better to start off with
March 29, 200718 yr Yep, definatley would have been a beter lead single. Doubt that there would have been any more singles or the tour though becuase Sophie was heavily pregnant.
April 2, 200718 yr Author Good point. Hopefully we'll get at least 3 singles this time round. The great thing about releasing the album after the 2nd single is the guarantee of there being to singles! :lol: Forum a bit dead today. Very, in fact.
April 2, 200718 yr I think it was a FAR better song than 'Mixed Up World', it did roughly the same I guess, the only thing is, despite 'I Won't Change You' going top 10 - it didn't even push the album back into the top 75. :( I would have definitely released 'I Won't Change You' first, but maybe the strategy they had was to release a weaker single to re-introduce her, then release the strong single second to make sure the album is a consistant seller... except that backfired. :( Also 'Love It Is Love' was intended as the 3rd single but for obvious reasons they couldn't follow it through. :( I don't know how that would have done, but I adore that song. :wub:

April 17, 200718 yr I Won't Change You is a stronger single but I doubt it would have made the album improve that much
April 17, 200718 yr Should have gave it a brief return though after the amount of people that bought RML
