I remember everyone being obsessed with "Fallin", but "Girlfriend" was my mess-a!

I think the world was just fascinated to a see beautiful young lady fully clothed, sitting at a piano with cornrows and a titled hat, exuding multiple talents. You had the Janet's and the Ashanti's and the Destinys Child's giving titties, ass and Brazilian bundles (no shade) and I think Alicia was just a well received change at the time.

It's so crazy to even fathom 450k people going out to buy your album in the second week after the 1st week of 250k in todays climate  :plzstop: :plzstop:

In retrospect, I think Clive pulled a lot of strings...

HCYDCM was my mess tho.

So soothing.

In a way, she kinda picked up where Lauryn Hill left off.

Man, I missed the days when album sales were an event. Sales would up and down significantly.  If didn't even matter where your album debuted because it still had a chance to go #1 or sale a lot of copies depending on the singles. :(
