Favorite Posthumous North American “A” Side

So what is your Favorite posthumous North American “A” Side? These are the singles released between 1983 & 1989 in the US & Canada.

I had to go with "If I Had You" but "Honolulu City Lights" was close for me.

If this were all posthumous singles I'd have to go with "Tryin To Get That Feeling Again" which was #44 on the charts here in the UK

Great thread idea! Just wish there had been more to choose from.

Yeah, I had to go with If I Had You. Stunning performance by Karen on the backgrounds and great NYC vibe to the track.

If I Had You. A great track and refreshingly different to what Karen had sung before.

 

[Harry]

"Your Baby Doesn't Love You Anymore" - great track. Always sounded like a single to me.

 

[Toolman]

Man, there was some incredible stuff left on the cutting room floor...

“Trying To Get The Feeling Again” was never released in North America as a single, hence whit it and “The Rainbow Connection” are not included.

For me it’s a toss up between “Your Baby”, “Honolulu” and “If I Had You”.

It’s to bad that “Honolulu City Lights” doesn’t appear on more compilation albums. Actually when I look at the Complete Recording Resourse, since “Lovelines” release in 1989, the only North American set to feature the song is the 2015 PBS Singles box set.
