I doubt it's a US single, it's probably an European/Australian single, since the US did away with physical singles since they got downloads. Lame.

*self-professed singles obsessor*
I collect them by the way, since they aren't common in parts of the world.

I can't wait to get this single. I'm sure the flash menu stuff is going to be fricking amazing.
Unless it's like the 'orange county girl' live portion of 'The Sweet Escape.' There were no extra's and the video was really naff quality.

LOL she's really getting her moneys worth for the Harajuku Lovers tour if that's what the live 'Hollaback Girl's' from. The album came with an audio and video, her website offers the 'What You Waiting For' video and now, possibly, Hollaback Girl audio

I am D:

Maybe it's because none of my CD stores sell singles, the only places you can get them where I live that I know of is FYE and this store called SPECs, and most of the time it's just choice singles. I geuss they aren't very popular at these stores ;\

I can't blame Norrel for being "ignorant" about singles. They've certainly lost their popularity in the US. Most people just buy or download the entire album now. US singles are almost pointless considering the fact that they usually just have like, two album tracks, a remix or live, and a possible video. It's kind of not worth it if you already own the album. I only buy singles that have a lot of B-sides or remixes, such as Christina's new Hurt Remixes singles, or Beyonce's Ring the Alarm single with like 6 remixes.

LMAO. You think those are sex songs? WOW o.o!

Yes, I do pay attention to lyrics and yes they do have a few lines in there but I don't consider them as "sex songs".

They just seem like regular songs to me

True, plus people would rather download nowadays in the US. Digital sales are crazy compared to physical sales.

There's "SexyBack" although not really a sex song, its sexier than 90% of the sex songs out there..

Care to post lyrics to a sex song?

Very, very true. "How Many Licks?" is a sex song if I've EVER heard one.

God I love that woman

She was on Ellen today and she performed The Sweet Escape and Wind It Up. I was very impressed that she sang both songs and I'm SO buying tickets for the tour tomorrow when they go on sale.

Bought the album this past weekend, and I like what I've heard so far, but I haven't really given it a good listen. It's mainly just been used as background noise while I'm doing things.

The title track is very good, though.

Rumor:

Gwen Stefani has confirmed she will reunite with her No Doubt bandmates next year to record a new album - and she can think of nothing else. The Don't Speak chart-toppers have been on an extended hiatus since frontwoman Stefani successfully reinvented herself as a solo pop star. But the singer is desperate to return to her musical roots and has already planned their comeback hits. She tells radio station Galaxy, "I got an idea in my head about what we could do and now that's all I can think about - doing a No Doubt record." Earlier this month bandmate Tom Dumont revealed he's been working on new material too, alongside guitarist Tony Kanal and drummer Adrian Young.

YAY!
