"Try Again" wasn't on an Aaliyah album, it was on the Romeo Must Die soundtrack, which had other good stuff but overall the quality varied quite a lot.

I'm sure it was on my copy of the red one that unfortunately ended up as her last one. I think it was self-titled. Maybe that was just a UK thing tho?

Wiki says it was on the German re-issue of Aaliyah in 2004, but otherwise it wasn't on that album at all. It was on a couple of posthumous compilation albums: I Care 4 U and Ultimate Aaliyah.

Weird. I'm sure I don't have the German reissue. Hrmm. Will try to dig out CD; is definitely the self-titled one, anyway and whether or not it has 'Try Again' on it deserves to be on the list.

No, you are right moggy. It was stuck on the end of the UK CD edition of the s/t.
