Yeah it was released to radio at the same time as Say Somethin' and reached number four on Bubbling Under Hot 100 and 19 on the R&B chart!biscuits wrote:It's because 'Fly Like a Bird' isn't on the list of tracks we were given to vote from.jio wrote:Fly Like A Bird...

I knew it charted but that song deserved a video. I mean otherwise the average listener does not really register it (at least not as he would have done had it been released properly)... Same with Gaga's "Speachless", they both left the best songs of their respective albums unreleased (in a major proper way) despite having both of them performed left right and center and getting (very) positive reactions from both radios and publicmimifan09 wrote:Yeah it was released to radio at the same time as Say Somethin' and reached number four on Bubbling Under Hot 100 and 19 on the R&B chart!biscuits wrote:It's because 'Fly Like a Bird' isn't on the list of tracks we were given to vote from.jio wrote:Fly Like A Bird...

Doubt it. Her sense of style was untouchable that era. She didn't mess a nail.biscuits wrote:I like 'Fly Like a Bird' but I think it works better as an album track. Knowing Mariah, she probably would have ruined the song by giving it a cheap video (beach, bikini, touching herself).

And the plan for the video was Mariah, Pastor Clarance Keaton and a church choir but it was going to be a low budget thing!BlueScorpion wrote:Doubt it. Her sense of style was untouchable that era.

Not bad. It worked for AYNAF. Why didn't they film it?mimifan09 wrote:And the plan for the video was Mariah, Pastor Clarance Keaton and a church choir but it was going to be a low budget thing!BlueScorpion wrote:Doubt it.

I don't know why they didn't bother filming it but Mariah had this to say about the video: "We don't have a lot of time to do it. It's not a big-budget thing. But it doesn't need to be. It just needs to be about the song, capturing the song and the emotion of it."jio wrote:Not bad. It worked for AYNAF.
