that's why I liked Underdogs fan-made video, it was different.

Maybe they could use those Grog Doll things and make it an animated video of some sort.

I presume they use songs left over from the recording of an album to use as b-sides, not to specifically record songs afterwards to fill in the gaps for a new single. They should take a break. I don't see why want to release a new single, especially the way the last one charted.

They do both. Usually the first one or two singles consist of mainly album session outtakes, but after that they start recording specifically b-sides. This is why you can sometimes find pointers about the next sound they're moving onto on the final singles of each era, e.g. Comfort Comes.

Anyone wanting to take a guess as to when the single will be out?
I'm thinking next month after the Brixton gigs. And the rescheduled Radio 2 show.
Anyone want to be optimistic and say it'll get A-listed on Radio 2?
Ok then. I will.

It seems strange putting one out in close proximity to the proposed greatest hits, and it'd definitely kill sales putting a greatest hits out without a single release to go along with it.

surprising, but excellent, news!

any chance of the album cover star featuring in the video? would certainly help get them some exposure.

Great news to hear, although I think the damage has already been done with SKON not making the top 40.
I would have released this as the 2nd single, hell, even the 1st but that's just down to personal preference of which album tracks I like. Can we even get AWMIE for a 4th single release? It gets played enough on TV as a backdrop to loads of stuff!!
