I just don't see EMC hacing as many hit singles as EOM, especially with the single choices so far. I doubt any can match "We Belong Together" + other singles or even the re-issue "Don't Forget About Us" which really prolonged the chart life of the album.

I agree with you. I definitely don't see Bye Bye becoming as enormous a hit as We Belong Together, or even Don't forget About Us. The lyrics are beautiful, but what does that matter when the melody is so dull? After listening to the album a few times, I've realized that it opens strong, but after Side Effects, just sort of goes downhill into extreme mediocrity. I think that it's definitely worse than Emancipation after reevaluating it :\
