This one might just be top 20-bound too... do we think? Decent-ish bullet, although somewhat on the slide.
Her album just isn't selling though...

Adore this one... #2 on VH1, #8 on Hot AC, future top 20 CHR/Pop hit, her second Billboard Hot 100 hit... I'd call it a smash especially for her  |

It's taken quite some time for it to catch on, but I still believe it'll continue to rise. Hopefully Liz can make top 10.

She should of released "H.W.C." That's a bit too much for her formats. H.W.C. means Hot White Cum. |

I've loved this song since June and knew that if I was patient, it would end up being at least a medium sized Pop hit. Looks like I was right...

The Matrix really nailed this one...I consider this their best production effort to date. It's nice to see it's finally reacting! :)

I predict it'll get to #13, but its gain will never exceed +500.

As mediocre as they come. And coming from her, it's a huge disappointment.

What sorta song is H.W.C? Sounds kinda disgusting. I like this song, even though I have noooo idea who Liz Phair is. |

Liz Phair is the type of artist that should be right up my alley and I'd love to get her current CD sometime but based on what I've heard about it in comparison to her other CDs, I think I'd probably be more of a fan of early Liz than present-day Liz. I like the song but for me, it's not spectacular coming from someone with a huge cult following the way Liz has. I just feel bad for her that her Pop/mainstream success isn't 100% gauranteed and she sacrificed her old self for something new and all of her old fans turned their backs on her. I guess they didn't like change?

She completely sold out... no wonder the song is doing so well on pop. I think it'll come close to making the Top 10, like maybe 13 or 14.
I don't like the song because she still uses her screechy voice in the chorus, which worked great for her previous songs, but doesn't when it's used to describe how she does nothing but want some dude.

I liked this song after seeing the video several times on CMC. It's a great song. It made my top 10. |

Pardon me, I haven't figured out how to double-quote yet.

At least it would've been more real and inspired than this painfully mediocre Avril-style Matrix production. I hear the Matrix are putting out their own album now. Mother of God, that's just what the music industry needs. I oughta buy the album the day it comes out, urinate all over it and mail it back to the record company. The music industry is worse off with them making music in it.

I'm sure the record company doesn't care what you do with the CD as long as you buy it.

Musically...
"Why Can't I" = "So Yesterday" = "It's About Time"
Now lyrically...
0 > "Why Can't I" > "So Yesterday" > "It's About Time"
Peace out,

"Why Can't I" is quite good... well, at least I am slowly catching onto it...

I like "Why Can't I" and "It's About Time" better than "So Yesterday."

I couldn't believe it, I almost forgot who sang "It's About Time"... I thought it was a song by another newcomer... now I remember about Lillix... Where are they now anyways?
