Killing Me Softly peaked at #2 on radio, but it wasn't released as a physical single in the US so it was ineligible to chart on the Hot 100 (like for example Don't Speak, Lovefool, Men In Black, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Lies probably could’ve go #1, it had strong streaming, sales & radio but never at the same time. A “worth it” / “redbone” tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
