O2 (O-Town album)

O2 is the second studio album by American boy band O-Town, following the success of their triple-platinum self-titled debut album. However, this album fell far short of that level of success. This is also the last album to feature Ashley Parker Angel as a member of the group.

Background

The lead single, "These Are the Days", only reached #64 and failed to match the success of "Liquid Dreams" or "All or Nothing". The second single, "I Showed Her", failed to chart anywhere. However, the album showed more creative input from the band, as they co-wrote six of the songs. Despite this, they soon disbanded the following year.

Commercial Performance

O2 peaked at #28 on the Billboard 200, and eventually sold over 257,000 copies in the United States and over half a million worldwide.[2] Despite a European tour and promotions for the album, it only reached Gold status and worldwide sales were half a million below sales of the self-titled album.
