it is kinda difficult to point out exactly which one will do well...i mean...being a nessaholic i think all her songs are amazin...

but lookin at it from the general public'c point of view,...i think she should release either the one or this time...

definitle one of em will do amazingly well...

though as someone said earlier...Pyhom (or should we start calling it Hom)
would attract attention...

must be.. lol.

it's an okay song.. or, it was live. i really didn't like the promo squad version we heard. i don't like the way linda perry is producing. i'm biased towards stephan, but knowing that doesn't change the fact that i haven't liked 2 of the 3 songs i've heard that linda has, and i'm not into the third. and for a while i had trouble distinguishing this time from the one. This Time is The One, but not as good...

yeah i agree. this time and the one sound pretty much the same because of that same beat over and over again. what were the 2 songs that you heard that linda perry produced?

i thought stephan's production work on harmonium was perfection. absolute genius. lol and yeah i got a bit confused between The One, and This Time aswell. originally i didn't like The One, now it's the other way around...

I dislike Perry's production on This Time, and based on what I've heard from other people, I'm not going to like any of the songs she produced for the next album.  I really wish Vanessa didn't decide to go with her.  She makes Vanessa's songs sound so...ordinary.

EXACTLY. vanessa's music might be poppy, but they're intelligent pop songs. linda perry makes these songs boring and predictable. i'm afraid that they're going to use a perry song as a single, because of her name, and because of the vanessa/stephan team doesn't really have a good track record on radio and with sales, even though they clearly write better songs. god i hope a perry song doesn't become a single. i'd be so pissed off.

I agree, but I'm pretty sure they will use a Perry song as a single.  Stephan is able to be a catalyst to Vanessa's feelings and art; whereas, Perry zooms in so far on the catchy melodies that the impact of the actual music and lyrics is all but lost.  But, when you look at what type of music does the best in sales and on the charts, it is this more shallow stuff that Perry is so good at creating that has the most success.  Therefore, if Vanessa really wants to sell a bunch more albums this time around like she says, she's going to end up going with a Perry song because those are the songs that will likely get the best response from the average pop fan. :(

Well let's pray for Put Your Hands on Me.

Perry is too mainstreem when she produces. Stephan doesnt go with the flow. He has his own way and it rocks.

The first single is probably going to be a song we haven't heard yet.
I don't think V wants to release a new album with a song her fans already know. I'm pretty sure she wants to surprise us with something new! ;)

...which could still be a Linda Perry-tainted track.

Isn't that sad? I hope that she doesn't lose her credibility, at least in our eyes. Well, at least to those of us who like her for her non-ATM tracks. I don't really care what people think of my musical tastes, as long as I enjoy it, but I still don't want people to be like, "What? You like Vanessa Carlton? I thought you didn't like that kind of music"... does anyone get what I mean? That forgettable mainstream pop stuff, that's "cool" for a couple of weeks and then forgotten?
