Then again, I think many of us can agree that WWWY was not the correct choice as a 2nd single so thats their fault

The huge sales definitely hurt single potential, but let's be honest, there aren't very many singles choices to choose from.
There were no highlights on 25 after Hello. SML and WUTB
are hits but they don't stack up as well to the stuff from 21. They sound like standard pop fare. The ballads are great but songs like AIA are almost parody like, especially when Can't Let Go is far superior and should have been on the standard edition.
IMY was a step in the right direction but it was only one song.
