Here's what I'm wondering (sorry if someone said this already, I haven't read through the other posts)...

Do you think OLP will release Our Time Is Fading as a single off of Live? It would make sense to me. MoS is just about finished as a single, and we won't see album #6 for a while, so to keep the OLP hype up, it would be a good idea. It's the only officially recorded new song (for the Live CD), and they could use footage taped for the DVD for a video.

I doubt it (OTiF Live as a single)

I don't hear much live stuff on the radio unless it's live in the studio. Maybe it's just where I live? The only live song I remember hearing on the radio for (at least) the past several months was Daughter (with a WMA tag) from Pearl Jam. I was just once that I heard it and they're releaseing a complete version of every show on the tour (they did the same in 2000 and there was a total of 71 double disc shows and one 3-disc show) so it would have to be expected that something would end up on the radio sooner or later.

Too much OLP is not always a good thing for the general listener... maybe for us CM'ers but not for the average guy, they'll get sick of OLP before the 2nd single off of the next album comes out

well think about when stations play nothing but Nickleback, or Lifehouse, or any other band that saturated the market, people become sick of them

Well, around here OLP gets played maybe once or twice in a work day (9am-5pm). If OTIF was a new single, it would more or less replace Innocent and/or MoS as one of the semi-high rotation OLP songs.

I think people would get sick of OLP more quickly if they kept hearing just Innocent and MoS than hearing some new stuff.

I guess it depends but you'd assume that OTIF would be out until just before the new album, which means that a new single from the new album would not get the spotlight it would deserve because people wouldn't know where one era stopped and one begins

in which case it wouldn't be released till just before the new album came out... which would give it the spotlight, but I don't think it will be on it cause that song was written for Gravity

because they like to play it.

They played Trapeze when it was written for Clumsy but they didn't throw it on Happiness

They started playing Trapeze in 1996 and stopped in 1998.

I think it's possible that Our Time Is Fading will be on the new CD. Things like that have been done before. Originally there were 12 tracks they liked for Gravity, and I think their reason for leaving off Our Time Is Fading was that it had more of an edge and didn't fit on Gravity, not that it wasn't good enough to be released.

I would guess that OTIF will show up on the next album...



I'm quite dying to hear a studio version so I will seriously fall to the floor and cry like a school girl if I don't get to hear it....

I have a feeling it won't be on the new one... they'll be in the studio for a month, I'm sure they'll find 10 or 12 new songs that they might like better. i could be wrong but We won't know for sure until we get an update on the new album.
