Interesting. Thanks for the info, guys. I will have to look into more of his performances without the band. Like I said before, I have always loved the band and love his work as a producer.

There are a couple snippets of "If I Lose Myself" floating around and it's a dance-pop song; definitely their most uptempo single. Reminds me a little of Coldplay.
EDIT: Wait; it's on their album preview channel:

I was a little worried to see you say it's dance-pop, but that clip is really good. I think it's interesting that they're releasing these uptempo songs....I wonder if the whole album will be like that in general.

Don't know if we already knew this, but they're on X Factor 12/19.

"feel again" deserved to flop the new one isn't too bad, but i'm not too impressed.

I love both of their albums, so, clearly, I'll be glad when this one drops; however, since they've had great music and smart promotion basically throughout their career thus far, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt re: all the rescheduling they've been doing with this project.

I'm surprised that it's pushed back that far. I know "Feel Again" underperformed, but it's not like it was a huge flop. It's almost like they're trying to pretend it never happened, despite it being a Top 20.

Sad to hear that "Feel Again" has officially peaked; I've been starting to like that one some. My expectations for it on the charts weren't that high anyways, so I shouldn't be too disappointed, I guess. Can't wait to hear "If I Lose Myself" in full as well as the album. I think I'll really start to like this group eventually (yes, even Mr. Tedder himself ).

"If I Lose Myself" is out January 8, according to Amazon. LQ radio rip, as confirmed by a tweet from the band:

:o I LOVE that! Seriously so excited for this album, I still can't believe I have to wait until March. As much as I love "Feel Again", "If I Lose Myself" sounds much more like a lead single so I really hope it does well for them.

I like this! It sounds kind of like a Coldplay song. But I think it'll be a hit. Although I thought "Feel Again" would be a bigger one too.
Hate having to wait so long for the album...

I wish the chorus repeated more than twice/again in the last minute of the song, but I LOVE If I Lose Myself. One of those songs I am just dying to hear again and again!

Counting Stars sounds awesome!!! Giving me a bit of Asif Avidan - One Day / Reckoning Song (Wankelmut Remix) vibes only then 1000000000 miles better!!

The new songs are very "Mylo Xyloto." It's definitely their most polished work yet.

"When I Lose Myself" is on iTunes now.
I think I've discovered my new favorite song. It has the same euphoric feel as "We Found Love" does.

"Feel Again" was not from Waking Up, like that article says. I thought it was the lead single from THIS upcoming album?
So is "Feel Again" now a promotional track? Or whatever crap they call it....

Yeah, I hate when they act like a underperforming first single never happened. :/ "Fortunately everyone came to the same conclusion about what should be the lead single," Tedder said. I guess he's referring to AFTER Feel Again? The whole article is so weird. And what was with him saying how everything's changed and they've been gone for three years? The biggest hit Waking Up had was just last year.

Yeah, I've been wondering what's going on there since their first post about "If I Lose Myself" last week was published with the same indications--I like "Feel Again" a lot, so I hope it makes the album.
