The songs on Crush have nothing to do with what the people wanted. The people just wanted the album with It's My Life on it. If the songs on Crush were the reason of the success of Crush, why didn't Say It Isn't So and Thank You For Loving Me bring Crush back in the charts?

I don't dispute that, but I don't know about you, but if I heard a song I liked from a band I didn't own any albums of, bought the album that the song is on, and liked no other songs on it, it wouldn't inspire me to become a "fan". IML may have been responsible for Crush selling loads, but I don't think you can say it singlehandedly made thousands of new fans
