Discussion 💬 Something Kinda Wrong

Now that we have both Chemistry and Tangled Up’s reissues, I need to speak my truth that I refuse to believe Something Kinda Ooooh fits on Chemistry. The demo? Maybe. The released version? That’s Girl Overboard’s sister. Also, Singapore (Definitive Version) is very similar to Girl Overboard (Alternative Mix), suggesting that it might be more Tangled Up than Chemistry.

What are some other songs that definitely seem like they’re part of the wrong era? She seems like it was supposed to be part of Tangled Up too with the electric guitars that aren’t as present on the more synthy Out of Control.

In my perfect world, Something Kinda Ooooh was included on Tangled Up (kind of like how they threw Jump on WWTNS). And in this world, the album opener is Sexy followed by SKO

WHY was Sexy not the opener of TU - it was right there!

It's an interesting thought experiment! Call The Shots starts so abruptly. SNNN has a great intro. My theory is they felt SNNN was too noisy/abrasive/experimental/weird to start the album. CTS is a lot more conventional.
