What songs do you consider non-hits from Mirage?

[iamnotafraid]

I've heard the use Only Over You to break
the detainees at Guantanamo Bay. Talk about
cruel and unusual punishment.

Hey now...

It took A LONG time for me to learn to appreciate OOY.
I now love the "range" of her voice on OOY.

God, I miss her.

I miss her too. But that song is unlistenable.

I never really liked it until I heard As Long As You Follow. The outros helped me understand the feel and sentiment. I love both tunes now.

But at one point I felt it was un-listenable as well.

I've always loved Only Over You. In some strange way, I consider it a counterpart to Over My Head. I guess because of the words, not the music.

The songs I find unlistenable are Warm Ways and Brown Eyes.

I've always felt that way about Warm Ways. The production sounds more dated, than anything off the White Album. Those tom tom fills = CHEESE sandwich.

It is looking like Gypsy, Hold Me, and Love in Store will count as hits.

Still undecided about "Oh Diane" as evidenced by the votes. It was a Top 10 hit in the UK, but it wasn't a hit in the US. Songs don't really have a chance of being a hit if they are not released as a single.

Oh Diane was released as a single in the US. I read that it did not chart and also that it went to #35...

Here's the wiki article...

Kinda strange but it seems that Oh Diane was a bigger hit in the UK than Gypsy was in the U.S.

No that was "When I See You Again." It was quite effective.

That's funny -
