"So Lonely".  For the love of God, I don't know why she didn't release this as a single in 2005/2006!  It's such a hot record and is crying out for for a hot video!  And I also don't understand the point of re-releasing "Whenever You Call" as a duet on #1's if they weren't planning on releasing it as a single.  She performed it on the Around the World television special and even released a music video for it in fall 1998.  Ugh!  And those are just some of the mismanaged steps in her career that come to mind.

Slipping Away jumps right to mind. There were a lot of very popular songs in 1996 and 1997 with a similar sound.

Yes so much to "All My Life"!  That should have been the lead single, amazingly catchy and it still sounds fresh a decade later!

YES! @ those from her debut. 'All In Your Mind' would have also been great as a 5th single imo.

Any song from 'Mariah Carey' could have been a single. Prisoner would have been cool, see Mariah rap
Pretty much.

OK so even though the songs aren't good now or anything, Rainbow should have been totally different. Can't Take That Away should never have been released, and Crybaby should have been the final single after some hits. I think How Much and/or X-Girlfriend should have been singles.

Now before nobody agrees with me, they were fun at the time! An Usher collabo could have been a hit, he was pretty popular. And they couldn't have done much worse than CTTA.

i would love to see Fly Like A Bird as a single replacing Say Something
a remix or acapella version of flab would be interesting
