you are the ideal man i've always envisioned myself ending up with. i honestly love you. but that does NOT mean i will just shut up and follow the leader. nor does it mean you won't have to listen closely and use your brain to keep me around.


Summertime

Say Something and Rather Be were hits waiting. Rather Be is basic to me but it would fit for quiet storm and the 50+ women audience.

Say Something I remember had the most views on the YouTube audio out of all the b7 songs. Another song that would have added women to her fanbase. She comes in in fight mode then goes back into pleading to Ryan her case why he should want her then goes in and out of fight mode to soft..then ends softly
Women would have been hooked on the vocal variety off that alone

Both are pick me songs but would have done well with videos not done by Frank Gaston. Say something is very rock in its original form. A live vocal with an electric guitar would have made it go off.

WYTM - it was her unbreak my heart in waiting so would have did crazy #s. A Chris Robinson video treatment would have had her sitting for months at #1

Angel in Disguise - it was a hit at radio even though it wasn't a single. Callers would call to request it because the haunted vocals and ad libs alone. That is why it was a hit in the streets.

This is why I will never see Sylvia Rhone as a good exec. How you have that hit and sit on it..Brandy's genius self and them haunted vocals is why it was highly requested throughout the country on radio

From a consistent level across most fans, seems like her greatest missed opps were a video for Angel In Disguise, WYTM for FM, I Tried for Afro, Do You Know (and as of late Slower) for 2/11, Rather Be for b7

Everything else is personal preference
