It didn't have the same staying power though, so it both took longer to go Platinum and it didn't have a 2nd hit single.

Rock a Little had Talk to Me, I Can't Wait, Has Anyone Ever Written Anything and then If I Were You and No Spoken Word.

Other Side of the Mirror had Rooms on Fire and then whatever struck your fancy. I personal thought Juliet and Ooh My Love were ok. Just saying Rock A Little stayed longer cause it had smidge more on it. Has Anyone stood the test of time pretty well.

I remember Other Side of the Mirror got a ton of returns in the CD stores. Bad word of mouth.
