According to Luke, and FMQB, this is the new single, and not "I'm Better".

He has such a total chick name. I mean Ashley is enough, but did he really have to use Angel too.
Anyways, I didn't like his previous sing... i hope this one's better.

Why does this keep happening to me! I'm just not going to chart anymore songs unless I'm sure they are singles, unless I really really like the song, which this is good, but still worthy of my chart.

Like I was getting at in the other thread, the constant spelling of "U" is starting to get annoying. It wasn't novel with SUBG in the first place, but then came along "U and Ur Hand" and now this (and I'm sure there are other songs in between that have used it too). It's getting to be a little much, and a lot annoying.

I think it had lost its novelty before that... like before Usher's "U Remind Me"/"U Got It Bad"/"U Don't Have to Call" era.

Matt4319 - sorry u don't like the "u" it was never novelty cuz it was taken from how i write emails etc.... it's how i write. anyway, isn't it about the music? BTW, u should get used to it cuz my friends at labels are telling me that everyone and their mother is copying it now in songs.... so sorry but i guess if u have to blame somebody blame Prince.... PS why does it bother "u" anyway? really? curious..... anyway, this song is getting mastered on Wednesday!!!

I have the same reaction to the spelling that Robert J does. In fact, I refused to buy Avril's debut album based on the spelling "Sk8er Boi". Well, I also didn't like the song. If I like the music, I'll get over it (like Since U Been Gone). But it does bug me. My Mom was an English teacher, so that's probably where that comes from. She used to turn off Eric Carmen's "Hungry Eyes" when it came on the radio because of the line "I feel the magic between you and I" (grammatically, it should be you and me).

When Jewel did it, I about wanted to retch. I can only assume the people writing these things think it is somehow hip or such nonsense.
LOL, this whole thread has totoally gotten off topic too.

The whole "U" thing started a long time ago.

Wasn't Prince like an early adopter to using one letter and mashing words together. Like "I Hate U" and "Letitgo" ???

I don't like the use of the letter "U" as a replacement of the word "You".
Song titles look better with actual spelling.
And I can't wait to hear this.

Is Ashley doing the radio rounds now? He called into my local station this morning to talk about the show and they played "I'm Better" after the interview.

He's definately doing the rounds. He called my station last week. They kept calling him Ashley Angel Parker in the promos. Ooops.

He should have dropped Angel and went with "Ashley Parker". What a doofus. The TV Picks lady at Yahoo said she worked with Ashley on Making the Band and he shouldn't breed lol.

As long as I like the actual music, I don't care if the song is spelled backwards.

He totally sounds like Nick Carter in the chorus. It's somewhat hooky but "I'm Better" was...uh...better.
