when a new single is released...

[Jessica]

i hope she releases one of her not-so-pop  songs, because i know they just like to release songs like atm and pretty baby becuase they're easily pleasing to a lot of people, but her "darker" songs, or whatever you want to call it are so good and show who she really is, and a lot of people dont see that, you know what i mean?
like they just stereo type her in with female pop singers, and she's so much more than that

like, for example, i work at the hollywood bowl, and me and some people on my staff were messing around with the piano and i played  some of "wanted" and no one belived me when i said it was vanessa carlton, they were like "no that doesnt sound like her, that sounds all scary and cool" and im just like.. well maybe if you listened to her album you'd know its not all what you think it is..
wow this post is really long

sorry i just felt the need to share this, anyone else understand what i mean?

i suppose i know what you mean, it would be cool if one of those types of songs were to be her next single when the new album comes out but alotta times the more popish ones are the singles because they do better for sales, which sorta sucks.  but i <3 all her songs so its allllllright

good work there... Clicky clicky!

So what your saying is you want her to release a song as a lead single from the CD that will only appeal to a SMALL percentage of the population and basically bomb and be a career ender.
Interesting concept but I think the lead single should have a wider appeal than that... but thats just me. What do I know?

[Jessica]

no, what i mean is that it sucks that thats the way things work out, i am aware that if she realeased one of those songs it probably wouldn't do so well, i just wish that wasn't the case and she COULD release those songs and have people like her for them.
 
no need for the indirect rudeness.

I'm with ya Jess... BNN was full of songs they could have run with... but due to all kinds of dumb ass crap they didin't do anythign for VC to keep her momentum going...  I mean Pretty baby was a gorgeous song and then they completely screwed it over for radio,. no wonder it bombed.

BUt wanted is kick ass... and definitely the ripe mix could have been HUGE!!!

[Jessica]

hehe thanks

yes i absolutely love wanted, i made it into a ring tone for my phone and everyone that hears it ring is like "whoa what is that its cool!"
 
and i play it on the piano and it impresses people =) hehe

the era of dark pop is upon us!

I was talking about this on another forum. Her new sound sounds very interesting, although very risky. Either she will bomb or change the face of music as we know it. Hopefully she changes the face of music as we know it. And it is quite possible. This may stop the fad of rap collaberations (which stopped the fad of boy bands and poppy female vocalists).

I bet she will release a darker song, but the record company will always push for the more radio-friendly song on the album. Most likely, first she will release the most poppy song on the album, which isn't saying much. From interviews I've read and seen, she's looking for this whole album to be a little darker. More songs like "Wanted" and "Rinse." Although, we can always hope for better.

[LimeTwister]

pretty baby did flop, so maybe the label will give her a chance with darker music?

I am thinking the next single could be dark carnival (when they add all the instruments and stuff backs) because the original was irresistable, and this version is going to a video game...and besides i have a video concept (lol).

so who knows?  Whatever they do they need to get it out better then they did the last 2 songs.

[PintOGuinness]

hopefully the video concept is different that the damn near identical video concepts for the first three...

If they do dark carnival.. I wanna see VC do a whole Bond-esque Spy hunter Vid  lol
