But does everyone think of this album. I cry foul! A lot of people already bought the original, some the "deluxe edition" (I assume this will be the special edition). I hate these releases so soon after the album came out. I don't even listen to the original verison. I think I'm going to pass.

I don't get why she's only doing one more single. The album and singles are still doing good, why stop it ? I mean, "Hollabak Girl" was her biggest single yet. I'm disappointed, I wanted "Serious" to be a single.

I get why the record company is only doing one more single. It's their MO. I guess it's much cheaper to pump one song for like 4 to 6 months rather than 2 or 3 (having only one single out for months on end like that would have been a sin years ago, no?). Also, just because there is one more videdo on there doesn't mean it's the last single, but in all likelyhood, it is. I also thought "Serious" would have been an excellent single.

No, you're not. I was really surprised by the album. Yes, it's a good dance pop disc but besides the self indlugence, it's far too gimicky (Harajuki girls and LAMB every five seconds?....the song is one thing, but them being in the videos and mentioned all the time is another). I honestly didn't think that Harajuki girls would be in everything. It's a bit much.

Well- apart from "Move It Over" and "You Make Me Believe" I've all ready got the re-packaged edition... and then some. But I'll still buy it! I love Gwen and want her and her Harajuku Girls to go on tour!

Her dress in the photo looks like Vivienne Westwood- only Vivienne would make something that ugly and only Gwen would make something that ugly look HOT!
Socks still got butt like a leather seat...

I'll be in line for this.

While I'm happy that "Harajuku" will be made into a video, I'm saddened to hear that it's the last single from the project. They could've milked this thing for all it was worth with "The Real Thing," "Cool" and even "Serious" as potential singles — but I guess those'll remiain album jewels.

Guess she's more intent upon completing this solo venture and returning to her No Doubt boys.

Hey JanFan.
Where is the news that this will be the last single? I don't doubt it for a second because record companies hate releasing a lot of singles. I also hope it isn't. This album had potenial and it was ruined by playing it safe with the hip-hop singles.

Yeah those wouldve been very good single choices. I agree with everything u said.

Harajuku Girls is aaaiiiiggggghhhttt, but it kinda corny for radio now and days. I wouldnt blast that in my car...I'd just jam on it on my headphones.

It's a nice change of pace from what's currently on radio. It has a hint of Minneapolis funk in it, if you listen closely to the keyboards during the hook. Jam & Lewis still got it*!

But, yeah, everything on radio is so hard, urban and thug-oriented that it does seem somewhat "corny" or jarring next to something from Trillville or 50 Cent. I doubt it'll get support from urban radio. It doesn't stand much chance of being a really big hit like "Hollaback" has now turned out to be. Isn't it funny? 15 years ago, urban artists were vying for crossover appeal to yield big hits. Today rock and pop artists have to get urban appeal to really hit it big.
