Seriously

Not If being #20

TBQH, TTWLG, IF, AFY TG, IGL Runaway and DRM were all cut off singles by the record company before they were actually done selling... Virgin had a history of doing this with Janet singles. Because of Love only got a CD maxi single which sold for 6.99 which is why it was only able to scrape the bottom of the Top 10 on the HOT 100 but was #4 in HOT 100 airplay... the same thing happened with If... there was only a Maxi Single for 6.99 so it was limited in how far up the charts it could possibly go. It too had really high airplay. I think it may have even been #1 in HOT 100 airplay (#2 Top 40, + #3 Rhythmic).

It must have had some great longevity



EDIT: Yep, it spent 14 weeks in the top ten. Back then, that was considered huge.

Flawless discography!!

Ready for the next installment.

I hear it all time at grocery stores and department stores, I even heard it at downtown disneyland LOL. It must have some great recurrent airplay.

Still her worst single + video

Not even close. Runaway was amazing. I LOVE that song. The video was great and the song was great!

It's one of her best. You can't help but smile listening to it.

I would have never guessed "Miss You Much" at #1 - love it though

"Escapade" another unexpected but deserved one

"I Get Loneley" being bigger than "Scream"

Runaway>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

miss you much is probably her most instant song, makes sense

7, "When I Think of You," No. 1 (two weeks), 1986

Her first number 1 Hot 100 song.

And Her best song she ever recorded.

I thought That's the Way was her biggest hit :-/

I haaaaate Black Cat.

Shocked Nasty is so low, that's the first song I think of when I think of her

Scream is no big deal. And IGL is a fan favorite, mostly everybody likes it.
