"Fallen," Mya

[Deleted]

This is going for urban adds on October 28. It sounds a lot like Jennifer Lopez's "I'm Glad" to me.

[allow that]

That's still a month away... "MYIL...W" is long done at Urban. They should bump up the adds date by at least 2 weeks.

I don't see the "I'm Glad" comparisons... it reminds me of the Pharcyde ;)

BTW:

MLILW's peak on R&R Charts:

CHR/Pop #10
CHR/Rhythmic #10
Urban #17

It's not done yet. It's currently #8 with a bullet.

October 28th? That's a really bad move. They need to push that up 3 weeks.

I don't see WHY they have to push up the adds date. IMO, it is better not to overload radio with an artist by pushing single after single (see J. Lo.). We all know anyways that some RHY & Urban stations will start spinning the track early anyways, so it's not such a loss.

I think this is a fine adds date for the song. Of course, I am not sure what the adds date is for other songs like Jay Z's new one and such, but if they don't conflict with this date, I don't see a problem with it.

this song doesnt sound urban. i think it would do decently at Pop and Rhythmic though. Not as big as "My Love Is Like Wo"

[Chromeozone]

When you're dealing with a song that wasn't too hot on a format, it's not even close to overload by waiting that long to push the next one. It needs to be moved up at least 2 weeks.

I think "Fallen" is the new "Breathe" ;)
(as in, many things are titled with it: Sarah McLachlan, Evanescence, Mya, etc)

[laguy03]

I really would like Mya to release "Take A Picture". I think it would be a major Pop hit and probably even a big Rhythmic hit too

Here's the official urban remix. Copy & paste to RealOne:

Eh! I still don't see it doing anything on Urban.

And for the people too lazy to cut and paste:

I have yet to hear this song, I heard just a clip of it on MuchMusic when they did a feature on the video shoot, which she shot here in Toronto last week.

But I have been hearing nothing but "I love this song!" from the people who have heard it, so should be interesting

[WhySoSerious?]

I like the sound of this one. I already like it better than "My Love Is Like Wo". Who are the rappers in the remix?

There's the video. I like it. She looks great.

[allow that]

I've never seen her look as good as she does in this video. I love the city scenes.... but how does she go from the city dressed in Fall clothes to swimming under water? Kind of weird transition. She also looks like Mariah in the "Honey" video when she's underwater.

Overall though, it's a good video.

[Joe1240]

I saw the video on TRL. Very different from her past videos. It fits perfectly with the song.

[Deleted]

The city scenes make me like the song more because the video gave the song a fall feel for me. I know that sounds weird, but it does seem more like a fall song with this video. This was one of those songs that just needed a visual.

...and the underwater scene reminds me more of "Rock The Boat" than "Honey".

[Bob]

I've been playing this song for a while, it's great... I hope it does something.

[strong4PMB!]

I love the song. I'll watch the video next time I'm bored.

[Deleted]

I'm really happy to see this Most Added at Urban. It's well deserved. I was afraid this was going to flop.

[af18c]

Like this one much more than "...Woah!" hopefully it will match its success

The video was definitely nice because it was shot in Toronto! (Give it up! Give it up!). She shot part of the video on the new Sheppard Subway Line (which opened last November)... Oh, so no wonder why this subway line had to close early on one of the Monday nights back in August...

The rappers in the song are Fatlip and Tré formerly of the Pharcyde. This song samples their song, "Runnin." I love this song!

I like how the video was shot in Toronto.

There are two versions of the remix. The version posted is "The Remix Plus." The other version is "The Remix Original" which replaces Mya's second verse with more rap.

[krazymack]

I agree with Sunny. When I purchased my "Mood Ring," CD at the time "My Love Is Like...Wo," "Fallen," instantly caught my ear after hearing the album once. I felt that the track would make a fabulous release.

Now what do you know "Fallen," is released as the follow up single to "...Wo." Lets say I am quite pleased about this!

It is a very beautiful track and like Joe1240 and other posters said the video matches perfectly with the song.
