This goes for Urban AC adds next week. If she wanted an Urban AC hit, she would have been much better off going with "They Long To Be Close To You" to benefit off of Gerald Levert.

Well, if it goes to Urban AC, then I probably can't say "flop."

Hmm, this album is actually really nice. In fact the other singles have been good Urban A/C hits. I wonder if, at least with this album, she's given up on wider success. "Whispers" is an amazing song but ballads still aren't doing as well these days. This should do well at Urban A/C, anyway. I like "More" and "I'm Yours Lately" even better though.

"Officially Missing You" was a huge Urban AC hit but I'm not sure about "Questions". I don't think it lasted that long which means it couldn't have peaked all that high.

WRKS, NYC's #1 urban station, has added this.

I'm glad this is her next single. I hope she releases 'Mr. Cool,' it's a great track and having Mario Winans on it could only help. My other favorite is 'Tomorrow.'

this did nothing, the album's over, and frankly i think tamia's over. sad b/c shes one of the most talented, best looking, and down-to-earth female R&B singers to come out of the 90s.

:'( Can't believe she flopped on urban AC after "Officially Missing You" was so huge. I remember hearing it several times an hour on SF's urban AC! (Maybe I just happened to listen at the right time.) |

Maybe she will have enough sense to leave Elektra like Lil mo did. She is too talented to not become a larger artist.

Tamia's problem is that as vocally gifted and beautiful as she is, she has no uniqueness or personality.

I dont think Tamia is any less unique then Monica, Faith, Whitney or any other R&b female signer. i think her material is just not as good. Although, i think "officially missing u" was better then the majority of what most r&b females come up with.

Although, i think "officially missing u" was better then the majority of what most r&b females come up with. no, the people you listed all have things about their personality that set them apart. Tamia... is Canadian. that doesn't mean she's a bore or anything, but she doesn't have the drama that those 3 have had, or Monica's presence, or Faith's history, or even Whitney's diva-ness. she's just like a girl next door, which doesn't help careers. but you're definitely right that she hasn't gotten as good as material. i've never figured out how labels decide who gets the best material. |

Elektra is an awful label! Everybody is leaving them.

It doesn't even really exist anymore. It's just folded in with Atlantic now.

This song didn't do anything worthwhile on Urban AC but I really, really loved this song personally.

this song has made a pretty big leap on urban too. +80 from out of no where. I wonder what caused this so suddenly?

Why the sudden interest in this song I wonder?
Has there been a video or something?

She should've shot a video for this. I almost got the cd single the other day for the dance mixes.
