I still blame the remix for Pretty Baby's failure  :lol:. The album version had a great AC sound and they crushed that with the remix.


I actually prefer the single version.

Pretty Baby has some pretty creepy lyrics though in hindsight.
And it's bad news, baby it's bad news
It's just bad news, bad news, bad news
'Cause you're just damage control
For a walking corpse like me - like you,
'Cause we'll all be portions for foxes
Yeah, we'll all be portions for foxes.

I Think if she did release 4 singles it wouldn't gone like this:

A Thousand Miles [well we all know that was huge]
Unsung [because it's catchy and different from 1000 Miles, rather then Ordinary Day, which i dont think was a very good choice for a single]
Rinse [Darker and again different from the other 2, just to show V can perform with different styles]
And lastly
Ordinary Day [ just so the old Vanessa that everyone fell in love with shines through, just to think that Unsung hit big, this song would be really good as a finisher.]

Sway was a really hot song performed live... i used to love watching her perform that song with the band.  It might have been an interesting single :)

I am so, so sad that I never saw her live with a full band!   :(

I prefer the remix of pretty baby to the original. I actually think Paradise or Sway would've been really good singles.....let V show off her darker side.

Actually you're right, it isn't her worst song at all--Pretty Baby is...

We're not speaking in present tense when you said "god i hope she doesnt use "rinse" " since that was like 4 years ago  :!:

No. All I am saying is that song is mediocre and isn't single material--nor should it ever be remade or remixed for any future single.

Well we aren't one to decide who is and who isn't, if someone says they are how can we just say "YOUR NOT A FAN"  :)  But still, every singer must have 1 bad song, and to BOS it's Rinse or Pretty Baby.

I noticed that girls for the most part have a real affinity for the song Rinse, for obvious reasons. But then again, the majority of Vanessa's fanbase are either female or gay. lol

The last Vanessa show I went to consisted of mainly girls, and then there was a lot of gay guys, and the guys that weren't gay were just there because of their girlfriends or something.
