I think she needs to release the second single. I want to love this song but it is hard. I find its annoying at times, I'm happy she is trying something out of her element but I think it is not working at the moment. Hopefully I'm wrong about this because anything can happen.

I hope so too. I don't know if I can say I can't wait for the album but I will get it when it comes out.

I am not that crazy about "Just Fine." It's just OK to me, maybe it will grow on me after repeated listens. She's had much better lead off singles ("All That I Can Say," "Family Affair," "Be Without You). That album cover is fire!

YES. Lauryn and Mary were big fans of each other, their duet on Miseducation is still one of my fav duets

Not only is "All That I Can Say" my favorite lead off single from Mary; it's my all-time favorite single from her.
Here's my list of favorite Mary lead singles:
1)"All That I Can Say" (Mary) 2)"Be Happy" (My Life) 3)"Family Affair" (No More Drama) 4)"You Remind Me" (What's The 411?) 5)"Love Is All We Need" (Share My World) 6)"Be Without You" (The Breakthrough) 7)"Just Fine" (Growing Pains) 8)"Love @ 1st Sight" (Love & Life)

my list would be exactly the same, i think. are you cute?

Lauryn also sang backup vocals on "All That I Can Say." I think it's a beautiful song, but it's not my favorite lead single. Mine would definitely be "Be Without You."
For me, it would go like this:
1. "Be Without You" (The Breakthrough) 2. "Family Affair" (No More Drama) 3. "All That I Can Say" (Mary) 4. "Just Fine" (Growing Pains) 5. "You Remind Me" (What's The 411?) 6. "Be Happy" (My Life) 7. "Love @ 1st Sight" f/ Method Man (Love & Life) 8. "Love Is All We Need" f/ Nas (Share My World)
I never liked any of Mary's lead singles. In order of what I could tolerate:
1. "You Remind Me" (What's the 411?) 2. "Love Is All We Need" (Share My World) 3. "Be Happy" (My Life) 4. "Family Affair" (No More Drama) 5. "Love @ 1st Sight" feat. Method Man (Love & Life) 6. "Just Fine" (Growing Pains) 7. "All That I Can Say" (Mary) 8. "Be Without You" (The Breakthrough)

There is still over a month left before the album comes out, which means there's still plenty of time for Mary to do the necessary promotion and get a new single out (if necessary).

Well this statement would definitely follow the trend she has set-forth with her releases thus far...Success, Flop, Success, Flop, etc.

Exactly. The only studio album Mary has released that didnt do to well was Love & Life and that still went platinum.
WHATS THE 411- 3 Million MY LIFE- 3 Million SHARE MY WORLD- 4 Million MARY- 2 Million NO MORE DRAMA- 3 Million LOVE & LIFE- 1 Million THE BREAKTHROUGH- 3 Million
- If one thing Mary has been consistent.
