About The Album
The title Open was Shaznay's decision during the time she was recording in the studio because she was 'opened' to many new ideas at the time.
It features two singles: Never Felt Like This Before and You. There was an announcement saying that Shaznay was going release her 3rd single Nasty Boy in March 2005, but that was just a rumour.
It is worth noting that the track #3 was originally called "Never Felt Like This Before" and the single and video has been released under that name as well, however on the album the spelling has been changed to "I Never Felt Like This Before". It is nevertheless the same song.
There was also an additional track called "Don't Know What To Say", however it was removed from the album before it was confirmed. The song was removed as it was said to have been a weak song in reference to its title. The album (without any promotion) seems to have been re-released, as "Don't Know What To Say" is now an added track on the album. This change can be seen on the HMV website. When the album was first released, this song was not included.
The final track "Now You're Gone" was originally called "Crying" but it was changed before the album was confirmed. The song has been released on the Shaznay Lewis Album Sampler which features 5 songs taken from her album Open, however "Mr Dawg" and "You" are both rough demos different from the album versions (both vocally and melodically).
