Stacie Orrico - Stuck
7/24
Score: 9.053
Highest: 10 x 18 (@soratami, @livefrommelbs, @yeRleDanaL, @2014, @Daniel_O, @fatyoshi, @unnameable, @Blond, @pop3blow2, @Crisp X, @Ana Raquel, @Conan, @ohnostalgia, @Slice of Life, @Robsolete, @AlmostFamous, @LKane, @Music Is Death)
Lowest: 5.5 x 1 (@slaybellz) 7 x 3 (@theincredibleflipper, @Pineapple, @aux)
Stuck was the lead single from Stacie's self-titled second album. It was released in 2003 and charted at #52 in the US. Although it performed much better internationally going Top 10 in several other countries.
Similarly to P!nk's Just Like A Pill the song was produced by Dallas Austin. And to be honest I don't think it sonically really fits this rate, but did I include it just to get more potential voters when I saw the big reaction it got when suggested? maybeso.gif
Also fun fact: The guy who plays her love interest in the video for this and I Could Be The One is actually her cousin. A little weird but work.
@berserkboi (8) - The shade of our host telling me Amiel doesn’t fit here but Stuck does! Dddd - I STAN the scammery!
@livefrommelbs (10) - I wouldn't classify this as pop-rock in the slightest, but I fucking love it as an exemplary piece of mid-00s pop proper. Hooks upon hooks, delivered by a genuinely amazing singer.
@DJHazey (8.5) - Kinda lulls me into a “why do I think this song is great again?” until “every now and then…” and especially the “I hate you but I love you...” parts which carry it over the line for me.
@Memoria (9.5) - This has aged really well. Understandably (There's Gotta Be) More to Life must've overshadowed this song for me at the time but listening now, it's almost just as good.
@unnameable (10) - Ah Dallas Austin, master producer who worked wonders with TLC and the Sugababes. This song is a fine little bop.
@Sprockrooster (9) - One would expect some grey hairs in my wig with the time that has passed since this release, but damn… not a single string. Still lookin’ fresh.

Hot tip: Whip this one out at karaoke and watch everyone lose their damn minds.
I'm glad it's out now, purely because I consider it more pop than pop-rock. But that 10 I gave it well and truly stands.

Not this betrayal.
Yeah I don't actually like the song that much sorry! I just included it to make ya'll happy, but I was not expecting it to last this long so it kinda backfired on me dd.

@slaybellz - the Amiel exclusion is forgiven when I see that score ddd J’adore the scammery and the self-betrayal! A twist most pleasing to me! Ddd
My Happy Ending
I’m With You
All You Wanted
Behind These Hazel Eyes
Since U Been Gone
Perfect Top 5 x
I have a nagging suspicion Come Clean is gonna do really well, though. I actually love it but I feel there are better songs left that fit the theme better. Complicated and Breakaway can leave next.

We already know what I want out but I think Alanis will be the next victim of being too ahead of her time!

I just want you to know if I could stick my tongue out at you, I would.
Just Like A Pill not in the top 10 - hell the top 5 - is honestly bullshit. It's a perfect pop-rock song! The darkness, the drama, the production, the melodies...everything about it works so wonderfully. I really don't understand y'all. Basically:
Also, I love the perfromance from the Funhouse tour, though I can only find the audio on YouTube:
Stuck was a great discovery! And I don't entirely agree with the "not pop-rock" comments, I feel like it's a solid mix of pop in the verses and pop-rock in the chorus, so it didn't really stick out that much to me. Okay with it missing the top 10, especially if a classic like Just Like A Pill isn't gonna be there either
Britney, always the trailblazer!
It better not be Come Clean. That's the only song I'm really worried about at this point, as I think my other faves are safe for the top 10. I would be okay with Breakway at this point, even if I love it.
Actually, I agree the chorus is quite rocky which is why I thought it was passable to include.
Really dd? Which video?

I mean...P!nk? She was part of the same period.

Stacie Orrico - Stuck
The evil has been defeated, etc. Now Breakaway next please.
I consider P!nk to be a bit older than those 4. Vanessa, Michelle, Avril and Stacie were all around the same age.
