To Torcan:

Thanks for responding!

I just seem to recall that in my area I never saw a copy
of the 7"; for a while I wasn't even sure it existed!

I did receive a 12" single of it though.

I've actually got two US copies of the 45 and picture
sleeve. It's a little harder to find than most of her
others but doesn't seem to be that difficult to
locate.

Maybe others have had different experiences?]]> Sun, 11 Oct 2020 07:21:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=557&PID=56202&title=just-the-lonely-talking-again#56202 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=557&PID=56200&title=just-the-lonely-talking-again#56200 Author: AndrewChouffi

Hi people,

Thanks for all the additional information and Discogs
references - it's a fascinating "semi-phantom"
release!

On a similar topic, wasn't it somewhat difficult to
find the single "Thinking Of You" in stores? That was
the release worked to Urban formats only from her
first album.

Anybody have any stories on that one?

Andy

Yes, I know a collector who has both the commercial US
12" single and promo CD Single. You can see photos of the
12" sleeve here:

Ah! This may explain why there was an unusual pause in the release rhythm of
that last single from Whitney: "Love will Save the Day" debuted 9 weeks after
"Broken Hearts" peaked… an eternity in those days (compare MJ's follow-up to
Dirty Diana debuting 3 weeks after DD's peak).

They must have planned JTLTA as the follow-up, decided against it, and gone
with LWSTD, creating the slight delay.]]> Thu, 08 Oct 2020 07:50:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=557&PID=56179&title=just-the-lonely-talking-again#56179 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=557&PID=56178&title=just-the-lonely-talking-again#56178 Author: torcan

My first thought is that there's another one I'll
never be able to find. I remember reading in
Billboard around this time that this would be a
single. Not that I don't like the
song, but I'm surprised Arista would consider
releasing this - after four No. 1 singles, did they
really think this would be a strong follow-up? "Love
Will Save the Day" is a much stronger song.

For the record, there were also promos pressed of
"Queen of the Night", from "The Bodyguard" - but at
least I've seen that one!
