I remember Long Way to Go getting considerable airplay on rock stations and making top 10 on the rock chart so it I was sure it would be the next single after Rooms On Fire. I was very surprised when 2 Kinds of Love was released as the 2nd single. It seemed like that just stopped OSOTM and any kind of momentum it had right in its tracks. Rooms wasnt top 10 pop, but it got played and was in heavy rotation on MTV for at least a short while. Long Way to Go could surely have made top 20 as well and helped make OSOTM seem more like a hit or helped more people remember it. After 2 kinds of love tanked ( I dont think that charted or got played anywhere) , Long Way to Go maybe couldve came back as a single but then along came Whole Lotta Trouble. I liked it, thought it was funky and different (so maybe it would stand out) for Stevie but by that point the whole album and any impact it might make was hopelessly lost. I dont think that song charted or got played anywhere either.
Whether you love or hate OSOTM, Im sure we all agree it could have made at least a little bigger splash than it did with better marketing/singles choices.
I totally agree with this !!!!!
