That version of "What A Girl Wants" is a remix that they later inserted on the album (much like MJ swapped out 7" edits of songs on Bad). The original doesn't have that overly heavy percussion that was popular back then for radio. It also had an acoustic guitar (or at least a keyboard with that sound) which sorta gave it a slightly organic or acoustic feel without delving too much into Lisa Loeb territory or something. I always hated that they replaced that track.

Funny u should bring her up, I was thinking about that nickname XTina yesterday for no particular reason.... if it was Christ = X shouldn't it be Xina?

.

She can have a pleasant voice when she's not sqawking and screaming, its surprising that after 20 years she doesn't have that many classic songs or remarkable live performances.

if it was just a dream, call me a dreamer 2

No doubt, this had something to do with it...
