Missing is also great but I’ll never get why a lot of people love this one so much compared to Where Do You Go when most people don’t enjoy that one as much. They have the same exact beat and flow, like the latter is a copy cat, is it probably the vocals or something.

"Missiong" has more emotion in the delivery and tone as compared to "Where Do You Go," which (to me) was just a plain pop song - which is odd since, as you said, it does use the same beat as "Missing" but kind of highlights how different two songs with similar foundations can be.

Thanks for hosting! This was one of my favourite rankdowns to revisit and while I didn't love the end result, it's hard to be too upset with so many great songs in play. Looking forward to the 1997 revisit when you get to it!
