The Omega Concern Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 We have seen three songs released so far, and I really do not expect BU2B2 to be a single (although I did include it here), so what do you think should be the next single?
Merely Space Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Should be? Wish Them Well. Reasonable length, accessible straight ahead rock, important message, blazing solo. Will be? The Wreckers, if the sticker on the album is anything to judge by. Not a bad choice, but I think Wish Them Well would be better.
Merely Space Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Wow, when there's only one vote, it kinda looks cool on the poll!
losingit2k Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 The Wreckers followed by Halo Effect then Wish Them Well!
The Omega Concern Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 I actually think "Wish Them Well" would make a better single also. Not really a boundary pushing song so non-Rush fans might actually take to it a bit easier.

Not a bad choice, but I think Wish Them Well would be better. I also pick "Wish Them Well," for the same reasons.
Shredder2 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 I actually want "The Wreckers" to be a single, as signs point to "Yes."
The Cat 3 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 I voted for "The Wreckers". Mainly because it is listed on the sticker ont he front of the CD here in the United States. Not to mention, it may be the most radio friendly "Rush sounding" track. Truly a great song!
ShlappinDahBass Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 QUOTE (trenken @ Jun 15 2012, 04:30 PM) The obvious answer is BU2B2. You can always get a good head-bangin' from that song.
Cyclonus X-1 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 The Wreckers is the logical and seemingly inevitable choice for the next single, and I'm fine with that. I'd like to see The Anarchist get the nod after that. Once The Wreckers' super-catchy, radio-friendly hook is out there, it probably won't matter much what else is released, so they might as well go with the album's best track. Maybe it'll catch the ear of a discreet listener or two.
Principled Man Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 When The Wreckers is released as a single, it should be publicized that Geddy and Alex switched instruments. That could generate a lot of interest....
Sword and Armor Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 The Garden should be next but unfortunately it'll never happen. (Rant On) Rock radio has gone corporate and is absolute shit, It's now all about trends and focus groups and commercials. That's why Nickelback is still relevant and somehow considered a "major" act - pure shit! BTW, since the "merger" of Sirius and XM, that's turned to shit as well. The dummies running radio seem like they don't understand that there's that thing called a iPod that they're competing against. What happened to the days when a jock could actually play what they wanted? (Rant Off)
rushgoober Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 The first time I heard The Wreckers, I couldn't understand why it wasn't the first single.
J2112YYZ Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 The Wreckers. Releasing something else wouldn't make any sense.

mjohnson30 Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 I voted for The Anarchist. You're not going to win over the pop crowd anyway. Might as well bypass the blander (ie radio friendly) rock on the album and throw something out there that kicks a s s.

Not a bad choice, but I think Wish Them Well would be better. My favorite ... The Wreckers but is written on top of the album ... on a sticker ...
KenJennings Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 The Garden was played on a local station just the other day, surprisingly. I think The Wreckers is actually a track that I could imagine hearing on a classic rock station five years from now.
lifeson90 Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 wish them well, as the lyrics project a clear general message that anyone can understand, without being part of a story.
