3. Stop Dragging My Heart Around
4. Talk to Me
5. Reconsider Me
6. Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind

I don't think Planets was a lead single, was it? Sensible though that choice may seem to us.

I'm inclined to include If You Ever Did Believe. It's lovely, and I think it counts at least as much as Reconsider Me or Sometimes It's a Bitch. It got a music video and everything!

I'd go:

1. Stand Back
2. Rooms on Fire
3. If You Ever Did Believe
4. Secret Love
5. The Dealer
6. Stop Dragging My Heart Around
7. Every Day
8. Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind
9. Talk to Me
10. Sometimes It's a Bitch
11. Reconsider Me

Well I think Planets was a lead track but not the lead track...kind of mirky.

I love "If You Ever Did Believe" but it wasn't from a solo (wish it was) but a sound track. BUT it was a lead single so I guess it counts ( too good not to. Lol)

Yeah. It was a solo track, lead single, and released for radio play (I think?). Ticks all the boxes as far as I'm concerned.

Mostly I just wanted more songs on the list that I actually like. Everything on my list after "The Dealer" is entering serious "meh" territory, for me. It was getting a little depressing.

If Planets does indeed count I'd put it straight at the tippity top of my list. Love that song.

Planets is such a great song..let's count it. By the way, if we're counting IYEDB I rank it at no. 3 on my list!:nod

Planets was released the same time as Everyday but just to alternative radio. Later it became a dance hit. every day was really the main, first single.

1. Rooms On Fire
2. Secret Love

...and that's about it. I've never been a big fan of what Warner Brothers has chosen to release as her lead singles from past albums. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy songs like SDMHA and Stand Back, etc. but have never really been "blown away" by them. "Rooms On Fire" and "Secret Love" have been the only two exceptions for me. They both made me soooooo excited for their upcoming record releases, respectively.
