[DANJ!]

It's '97... times are changing aaagain... what was the best single?

Another hard ass choice. But seeing I Can Love You up there reminds me how really underrated Share My World was.

Always preferred a different version though

This.

Share My World may not be universally as viewed as her best like My Life or What's The 411? is, but Share My World is the album of her's that I revisit the most.
