I was worried for a quick minute that this was peaking. But the updates today have been positive! Sweet! Based on the new clips that we have heard ... For now I think the singles should be: 1. Battlefield 2. SOS (Let The Music Play) - This sounds like an obvious CHR hit to me. This kind of music is in right now and I could see it smashing the pop chart and hot 100. 2. Walking On Snow - I could see this doing great on CHR as well, so I would take either this or SOS. 3. No Parade - Based on the clip, this sounds like the obvious album seller. It melody/ tempo remind me of The Climb and Big Girls Don't Cry. I really believe that it could push albums. 4. Watch You Go - This just flat out sounds like a hit. If she gets a 5th - Let It Rain If she gets a 6th - ??? I have to hear all the songs in full first. :) I'm sure all my opinions will change once I actually hear the full songs.

Hope the downloads can approve or this might not even make top 20 on Hot100 :s Such a good song needs top 10, at least :)

the bullet drops again though that could be the effects of the gains from the Ryan Seacrest and Rick Dees top 40 countdowns last weekend when it was added are gone today .

Based on the clips:
Walking on Snow, Let the Music Play, No Parade and Watch You Go MUST be SINGLES!
Jordin kept the "I think of you in bed" line in "Don't Let it Go To Your Head" but changed "That little b*tch" to "that crazy chick" in "Let the Music Play"

why do all of the songs sound the same? Its like she just sung over one instrumental and they changed the tempo and added some different beats and effects. its really boring to me. nothing on here will be huge. Some decent sized hits definitely. Nothing top 5. Battlefield is the best by far from the 30 second clips, maybe because it feels like the finished version of many of the other songs.

Just based on the 30 second clips, I would rank them:
1. Walking on Snow 2. S.O.S. (Let the Music Play) 3. Battlefield 4. Watch You Go 5. No Parade 6. Emergency (911) 7. Let it Rain 8. It Takes More 9. The Cure 10. Faith 11. Was I the Only One 12. Don’t Let it Go to Your Head
I'm sure this will completely change once I've heard the full versions.

It really bothers me when people say that "every song sounds the same"...that's what people said when the 30-second clips came out for her first album. First of all, i think that the album is diverse but cohesive. I also think that we all should wait until the album comes out to make final judgements, because 30 second clips can be misleading.

It really bothers me when someone doesn't learn to read. Reread her post. She was judging it on the 30 second clips and I have to agree also. This album is extremely ballad and midtempo heavy. Too much sameness for 30 second clips.

So its fine to say that "I Love it!!! AMAZING!!! SMASHES!!" and rank all the songs but I cant offer an opinion based on the 30 second clips? I understand now.

Sorry for any disrespect, you are completely entitled to your opinion and it's fine if you don't like the songs. I just get frustrated when people say about any album that all of the songs sound the same. I wasn't trying to be rude or undermine your opinion though.

I think Emergency, and S.O.S. could be successful as well .

I wasn't trying to be rude or undermine your opinion though. its fine! i hate it when people say it too which is why i tried to elaborate. They are all really similar in structure from what i can tell and this same pop ballad feel that is getting old to me. She needs to work with someone new or something. and 30 seconds is a big part of a song and plenty to judge in terms of structure and vibe.

I know Wikipedia isn't the best source, but it's claiming that Watch You Go, and It Takes More are the next singles, with It Takes More being released in Europe, and Watch You Go in the U.S.
