"Yesterday" is the remaining ballad that sounds the most like a US hit.

Perfect single order should go like this:
1) Bleeding Love 2) Better In Time 3) Forgive Me 4) I Will Be 5) Whatever It Takes
Now that lineup would shift some albums.

True; perhaps they ought to stop at 4. I can see all remaining 3 being big big big hits. Is Angel included on the U.S. version? If so, that could be a single later on as well.

And completely pass up Take a Bow!? I know everyone has their opinions, but NO WAY TAB should be excluded as one of the singles. Have you heard the beat on that song?

I think the only way Arista would be hesitant about releasing that song is because of Rihanna's Take A Bow. Yeah it's a great song, but you also have to explore things in a labels eyes. But who knows, it may just be a single.

Take A Bow is amazing...but, I just feel like it is an album gem and should stay that way. The "fan favorites" don't always necessarily make the best single choices. Like 'Addicted' was to Breakaway, 'Starts With Goodbye' was for Some Hearts and 'Good Girl Gone Bad' was from Good Girl Gone Bad. It's like an unexpected gift for the buyer.

Don't think he deserved that one at all.

I know what you mean, there's plenty of great songs that don't make great singles (Addicted, like you mentioned, is one of the best examples of that I that. Unless like IDJ pointed out, because of confusion with Rihanna's song.

Wasn't trying to be hostile, I just don't see how someone could think out of 5 singles, Take a Bow wouldn't be one that should be released. I just think it has hit all over it, and I'm not trying to be arrogant but I do have a pretty good track record with predicting how a single will do. Maybe it wouldn't be a good single though, I guess I'm just very opinionated when it comes to music that will be hits.

It's called an opinion, for people here to respect yours, you have to respect theres in return.

I'm not a huge fan of Take a Bow, this one or Rihanna's either, but it has that recycled "cry me a river" beat and should do well based on that alone.

"I Will Be" actually received some airplay when the album was released. I think it would do good on radio. Wasn't this the top digital download off the album the week it got released?

If i didn't do that what good would my opinion be?
