Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
Yes. And it might have changed some peoples perspective on DMB. However, You and Me reinforces all the cheesy DMB song stereotypes out there.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
No, because this is one of their worst songs ever.
Sorry.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
No, it's the most un-dmb sounding song they have and as we see on this site most people either hate it or love it, you want a single to be something that everyone can enjoy.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
nope, its a hate it/love it kind of song, not to mention one that, i think most the fans of the song will agree, works a lot better in the live setting. on the other hand, i could see how some moderate/casual fans would hear it and be like wait, thats dmb? i guess i need to check out this new album.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
After reading through the thread I am surprised at the hate for Seven. I remember when Big Whiskey came out it was the second coming of the greatest song by DMB I literally got ran out of threads because I did not think it was genius. What happened?

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
you know, the more i think about it, maybe it would be. its not like dmb needs to draw in numbers of casual fans at this point, so a light radio song wasnt really necessary. i think a very unique, different song would not necessarily get lots of people to kind of like them, but maybe get a smaller amount of people truly interested in finding out more about this band. just an idea.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
I would say no, because i absolutely hated it at first, which probably a majority of people would feel the same way. But as of now it is my favorite off BW!

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
Seven is awesome, but no it wouldn't have been a good single. Seven is too complicated of a song for the average radio listener to hear once and fully understand. Funny and Why I Am get the job done as singles, You and Me sucks but whatever.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
I think Seven is a great song but maybe wouldn't go over so well as a single. Not "radio friendly" I don't think...great song though.

It's too weird. SMLAM would've been a sick single I think.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
I was thinking about this yesterday while listening to Seven, actually. After considering it, I think that SMLAM would have been a better single.

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
Absolutely not. Seven is one of my favorite songs of BW but seriously guys? Odd time sig and ridiculous lyrics/falsettos = bad radio. They did the right thing with the singles, though I would understand switching smlam with either WIA or Funny

Re: Would Seven have made a good single?
Seven is one of the better songs this band has made in a while, you're kidding yourself if you think its a lower tier song.
