Like it! I love how well this era is going. The single releases are really on point. Hopefully this will get an adds date for late next month to give "One More Night" enough time to peak. I can see this song being big!

Hopefully stations don't pick up on this yet, OMN is still going strong. Also this is easily the weakest single this era. I haven't listened to the CD though, so I don't know if there were better options.

Eh. Lucky Strike seems like a better option for now.

^ You're both wrong.
Daylight is perfect for now. But then The Man Who Never Lied thankyou please.
Lucky Strike can end the day.

Jonas Åkerlund :O And I like the single choice, it's obvious after OMN. (maybe Lucky Strike has a shot as a single)

My favourite track from the album. I'm thinking a top 10 peak.

I liked the first two singles, but this one is boring. I prefer "Lucky Strike". It should be at least a moderate hit though.

As long as 'Lucky Strike' and 'The Man Who Never Lied' are released, I'll be happy and not really bothered by this being 3rd.

I think I mentioned this in the album thread a few weeks ago, but I'm happy with this choice. "Lucky Strike" was probably the most obvious option, but this breaks up the poppier sound of their last three singles (with MLJ included) to something a little lighter and HAC-friendly. I think either one would do well, but I'm glad this is the way they're going (presuming "Lucky Strike" is fourth; I know Jack swears by "The Man Who Never Lied," but I think I'd be happier with that as fifth).

Agree with Jack. Great choice and next single needs to be TMWNL. Great era.

Eh...this may grow on me, but going from the amazing "One More Night" to this is like going from the Iphone to a droid...such a let down :(

I'm glad this is the next single, it's seemed obvious to me from the start. Lucky Strike is cheap and forgettable, this is much better.

Isn't "One More Night" doing good right now? Why would they announce this so soon?

Very chill song, appropriate for fall. I think it will do pretty well.

YASSSSSSSS :'(
Definitely my favorite song on Overexposed, I was worried it'd be Lucky Strike and Love Somebody and that Daylight was going to get overlooked.

Good song, but the thought of it becoming a single bores me.

The beginning was a snooze fest. It picked up but still not very catchy.

They should've waited on this for 5 more weeks, since One More Night is gonna hold #1 until Taylor Swift starts ramping up her airplay.

There is no adds date yet, is there? If so then announcing the 3rd single is fine. Even announcing an adds date, now, for 4 weeks or so away would be fine.

Ugh. I really dislike this as a single choice. It's okay and all, and I understand why they need to slow it down a bit, but why not "Love Somebody" or "The Man Who Never Lied"? This one is just so dull. It's like a leftover from Hands All Over IMO.
Edit: This album's singles so far SUCK! I mean, the album is amazing. It has a bunch of smashes on it! The singles they've released are smashes, yes, but there are even BETTER choices than what they're picking. I mean, "Lucky Strike," "The Man Who Never Lied," "Love Somebody," "Wipe Your Eyes," and "Doin' Dirt" are much bigger smashes than "Payphone," "One More Night," and this to me.

This song is really boring, but I knew it would be next since Adam adores it and thinks its their next "She Will Be Loved" I would have preferred a number of other songs for #3.

This is by far the most obvious smash on the album! This song will smash HARD!

This song is decent, just like the first two singles (it's less catchy though).
