Advantages: The diehards will part with their cash so the record company are in the money Disadvantages: Inconsistent, nothing new enough to warrant another release
Advantages: Two good singles. Disadvantages: Tedious and unenjoyable. Give it a miss.
...Sixpence None The Richer shot to fame on the back of "Kiss Me" appearing in the teen flick "She's All That". They then followed it up with a cover version of a classic song, "There She Goes Again", and then promptly vanished into oblivion.

An excellent allround song...
