Believe it or not, "You Can Make The Story Right" marked the first and only time she managed to have two Top 10 singles from the same album as a solo artist!eek

That's quite amazing. You think with her catalog, a top 10 came easy. I know I did as a child. I was very naive about "chart success" then. I thought anything on BET was number-one. lol Especially going by the JET charts. lol

Other than "The Woman I Am" and "I Feel For You", Warner Brothers never promoted second singles from her. A lot of people will also be surprised to find out "Through The Fire" stalled at #15 R&B and something like #60 Pop! You would think as much as radio played the shit out of that song and the video staying in regular rotation, it would have been #1 or at least Top 10 on one or both charts.

I was shocked myself. I looked for her chart history and when I saw that, I almost cursed like "HUH?!" lol
