Next single(s)???
I was just checking out 101.9 KINKfm's (Portland, OR) new playlist and Why I Am and You & Me are officially on there. Nice. This station rocks. They also play all kinds of Dead. Sorry if this is old news.

Cool for Why I Am, but I can't believe that Shake Me is not going to be a single from this album. That's a missed opportunity imo.

Re: Next single(s)???
I agree. It is my son's favorite. Every time we get in the car he asks to put it on.
|
Re: Next single(s)???
something tells me Why I Am would be a bigger hit than You and Me. i don't know
|
Re: Next single(s)???
Does the record company pick the singles (as opposed to the band)? I am also shocked that Shake Me would not be on that list.
I think Why I Am, while decent, will play into the incorrect stereotype that the band is musically bland. Same with You & Me. Maybe whoever is picking the song is bland. I don't expect to hear Seven or Squirm on the radio, but certainly My Baby Blue is better than You & Me. LITHOG and Dive In could certainly go on the radio. Spaceman could as well, but it's on the same level as Why I Am. |

i honestly dont see the issue with doing 4 singles, and think they should for for that, why i am obviously needs to be a single, and you and me is definitely single material, that could fit into tv shows and movies so easily, its just got great music and melody to catch peoples ear, baby blue, while beautiful, and i love it greatly, would not play as a single as well, but shake me like a monkey would certainly be an amazing single and could have an amazing video for it, so we can hope and wish for that as well

Re: Next single(s)???
On the sticker on the album it says including Funny, Why I Am and You and Me, so they will be the singles
|
Re: Next single(s)???
They played SMLAM on XRT in Chicago like a week before the album dropped. I had not heard the whole tune yet and I almost died... it was awesome. I can't understand how it won't become a single.
|
Re: Next single(s)???
Yeah I'd say they should have chosen SMLAM perhaps instead of Why I Am
|
Re: Next single(s)???
i think Why I Am is a great choice. it captures the spirit of the album but it's catchy enough to hook new people. and it is definitely not musically bland, whoever said that. the way they transition between different time signatures is very impressive, and the drumming is nuts. anyone who knows a thing or two about music but never listened to DMB will probably be converted with WIA.
|
Re: Next single(s)???
The singles should have been:
1. SMLAM 2. Why I AM 3. Dive In (yes..Dive In !! ) |
Re: Next single(s)???
A lot of people (not extremely into the band) say You and Me are their favorites, this is just my first hand account, not sure if it's a natural occurrence
|
Re: Next single(s)???
The next single probably will be, and should be Why I Am. Their best single since Grey Street.

Dive in SCREAMS Coldplay-esque catchy music, and the masses would eat it up. |

It's heavy Tim-wise, but I don't really mind there being an electric guitar in DMB music. I know some people have a coronary like they're violating some unplugged oath that the band has, but it's fine by me. I like electric guitars. Most of the music I listen to has them. |
Re: Next single(s)???
I think shake me like a monkey should be on the single. :monkey

Re: Next single(s)???
Seven would be an amazing single. It's one of those songs that grows on you the more you listen to it, and it's ridiculously catchy.

They could easily do an unplanned 4th single with either Shake Me or Dive In, ala BTCS (Rapunzel) and Stand Up (Smooth Rider). Heck, UTTAD and Crash had 5 singles so its not out of the question. |
