I know. I begged them to make AYS a single, and we saw what happened. They released RBY and gave up.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I think that it'll be "Not Enough" It'll be that because its ones of the songs that they play at every show. It could also be "All For You" or "Do You Like It" too. I think it will be "Not Enough" though

8O rrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeaaaaarrr :clumsy: dude there's a clown!? someone mentioned before that on enery other cd the first song has been made a single, so it's making me guess all for you will be next, it would be sad to break the tradition :nod:

well, i would put my $money$ on *Made of Steel* considering that it is alongside SOT and Innocent on the ourladypeace.com website. that could possibly mean that they want people to preview the singles before they come out in radioland.... :wtf: i unno. just a guess.

Without you I'm as good as
dead ...

I *really* hope 'made of steel' doesnt become the next single, but i'm afraid it probably will be. Thats probably my least favorite song on Gravity...it just sounds like they made it to put on radio or something...a little too radio friendly sing along to me (then again, overall this album as a whole is *way* more radio friendly than the previous 4).

They need to go with something with at least some edge on it. My pick would be 'sell my soul' or 'not enough', or if they wanna go out on a limb, 'bring back the sun'. If they dont pick 'made of steel' though I think they'll pick 'all for you', since they open every show with that and its one of the songs that'll be aired on the mtv Rock and roll hall of fame thing.

It would be tragedy it they released 'Do You Like It' or 'Made of Steal' because there are 6 better songs on Gravity.

I'm hoping for 'A story about a girl' but betting on 'Not Enough'

Creative name :mrgreen: . Anyways, you have to think about it. You can't release something like "Sell My Soul" because it's not radio friendly. Made Of Steel and Do You Like It are.

Radio Friendly (ray-dee-oh, frend-lee):
1. The ablity for a song to hit the radio waves and be accepted by listeners of the genre.
2. A person who's only friend is a radio.

yeah, well, i still think that 'Do You Like It' and 'Made of Steel' are two of the three weaker songs on Gravity. 'A Story About A Girl' would be the best pick

Im starting to see hwy people would think Made of Steel will be the next single, and I think i agree. Although, i REALLY wish it owuld be All For You. if they released All For You as a single, they would be selling out arenas in AMERICA! everybody loves that song and its a 100% rock song, but it's also sing-alongable(real world?i dont think so) so the rock audience would all take them seriously(which i doubt they did after SOT!) and the poppy audience owuld like it too. I LOVE the song, but i think there are a lot better singles on that album. I haven't totally agreed with any o fthe singles so far. SOT is an okay choice, I guess. but INNOCENT?! so..yeah, made of steel is a good song, but they should go with All For You...lol, just so i can see raine(in the video) lip synch to "Jack Kerouac..K-K-Kerouac"!

I actually just put Gravity in because I had "k-k-kerouac-craving"(meaning:i had to hear it now!) an don th ecomputer, when the music thing pops up, it says "Our Lady Peace Gravity rock_pop" POP?!?! 8O DOWN WITH MUSIC MATCH!!!!
