explain why

I picked Sorry .. just cuz I really like that song. They didn't play it live when I saw them though which was disappointing. I think Sorry is just an overall good kick ass song that would do well as a single :mrgreen:

All For You - just because!

Not Enough. Why? Well, I would hope they would move further from the popish sound for their next single, but I would expect something that should be widely liked (so in my opinion All For You is out of the question). Not Enough is a great song. Maybe I'm crazy, but parts of it even remind me of Led Zeppelin's Kashmir. :nod:

I picked All For You because after SOT and Innocent, they need a hard song, something that isn't so new. Ya know? Their last 4 singles were Life, Right Behind You, SOT, and now Innocent. Something rockish needs to come next.

Plus, it's a really good song and it's got really good lyrics.

Story About A Girl, because it's my favourite song off of Gravity.

^

but I don't think it would do that well as a single. Plus, I always like to have that one really good song on the CD that isn't a single so when you go buy the CD, there's that one song that they never released but it's soooo good.

EX: Denied, Story of 100 Aisles, Happiness and the Fish (practically that whole album) and Are You Sad?

I'd wish Not Enough would be the next single. It is a truly great song! I love the chorus, and I think it will help sell more albums.
But, who says there will be a 3rd single? Sure Naveed and Clumsy each had 4, butthen happiness only had 3, and SM had only 2! I really with there was a video for Blister and Right behind you.

i'd choose not enough. it was my favorite new song they performed at the houston show

I think logically I'd pick Sorry as the next single. I believe it's the strongest, most radio friendly song, aside from SOT on Gravity. BUT because I'm a big dork, I instead voted for BBTS, cause I like that one the most, even though it's totally NOT radio friendly and will probably never be released. So if anyone wonders where that one phantom vote for BBTS came from...RIGHT HERE BABY! :mrgreen:

Althought Sorry is my favorite song on the cd, i picked All for You because it seems like the most radio friendly song and one of those songs that could hook a lot of people to olp.

And as a response to teelo, according to ourladypeace.net naveed had 6 singles, clumsy 5, and happiness and SM both had 3. While some of those weren't really played anywhere outside of canada and us cities bordering canada, it seems that gravity being a more radio friendly album, would have at least 3 singles pushed by columbia esp. considering the success SOT has shown.

This isn't my favourite song on the CD, but I said All For You. With today's crowd that song would get a helluvalot of airplay, and really open up the band to the States (and the few people in Canada who they haven't reached).

Innocent is the next single though. Then it will most likely be Sorry. If they do another one after that, it would most likely be either All For You or Not Enough.

I voted All For You because I wanted to vote Sorry, but as people have said, they don't play it live, so it doesn't look like they like that song, for some reason.

nelison · Post by **nelison** » 7/29/2002, 9:33 am

Sorry would be great, that would be my choice...
All for you could and probably will be a single but Not Enough won't, I cant see it being played on the radio and unless they made a great video it probably wouldnt get plays on Muchmusic either (like of course it will cause MUCH loves OLP so they automatically get put in high rotation but it wont get as many as they're used to getting)

Story About A Girl would be another awesome choice.
my only problem with it... Raine says Babygirl... Wasn't it like 5 or 6 years ago they said they would never put "Baby" in a song... I think it was in a Chart article...

Not Enough unfortunately just isnt radio friendly enough, sorry guys, but I have a feeling it's not going to be a single

methman1 · Post by **methman1** » 7/29/2002, 9:53 am

Why are we worrying about the 3rd single already? Innocent hasn't even been officially released to radio!
At any rate, I think the 3rd single should be either Do You Like It? or Not Enough, DYLI? because it would be a surefire hit, or Not Enough, because it has the potential to hit really big (although it probably wouldn't...).

Staley · Post by **Staley** » 7/29/2002, 10:04 am

It all depends on how Innocent does. I voted for All For You, but I think Not Enough or Sorry would be good choices too. Gravity is an album full of singles.

I don't think it's because they don't like it .. I heard it's because Steve and Mike are still learning that song and aren't comfortable with it yet to play it live ..

Sufjan Stevens · Post by **Sufjan Stevens** » 7/29/2002, 10:48 am

I would pick Made of Steel. It's radio-friendly, even though it may be about suicide, it could be made into a great video, and it would get publicity well before it was released, because of the people who associate that song with "Superman's Dead" (titles referring to Superman.) It's great song, and should be released, but it's doubtful....Bring Back The Sun should be a single too, but it would probably crash and burn as a single anyways.

superboots · Post by **superboots** » 7/29/2002, 12:12 pm

Even though I'm still in love with Not Enough (best song on the cd) I picked All For You. I think it would do great as a single. Not Enough would too, but I want to keep that song all to myself and don't want it to be on the radio. (I'm selfish, I guess).
