I'm glad to see "Goodbye, Goodbye" as the third single since it was initially my favorite song on the record. I really do hope they push something after "Closer" state side. I could see "I Was A Fool" being a winter hit.

I assume they're still working with Closer in the US. They seem to be doing a lot down there with their tour with Fun and a performance with Katy Perry's thing next month.
I could see I Was A Fool doing well if released.

It puzzles me that their label hasn't bothered properly pushing anything in America after Closer. I heard it on my CHR last night and actually thought that I'm glad they didn't move on, instead pushing it steadily and giving it time to grow into a hit. I mean, I definitely would've rather had it smash last year when it came out and had VH1 promo and whatnot, but better late than never - I figure otherwise they would've tried and failed to release a string of singles with no hits at all. |

I didn't realize it was still growing. Song is ancient to me and I don't hear it as often on our local stations out here. |

Goodbye Goodbye? Ugh. Still think the most obvious singles (other than "Closer") are "Now I'm All Messed Up" and "I'm Not Your Hero."

They are singing Don't Find Another Love for the movie Endless Love, and have a song with The Lonely Island for the Lego movie.

Their team needs to push another single in the U.S. since they're opening for Katy.

I Was a Fool, I'm Not Your Hero, or Love They Say tbh.
They remain very underrated. Heartthrob put them on another playing field musically. I wouldn't have expected for it to sound so genuine.

Their fourth single in Canada is I'm Not Your Hero.
It follows Closer (#13), I Was A Fool (#19) and Goodbye Goodbye (#30).

Guess they're not going to try Now I'm All Messed Up. Shame.

I just discovered the Sainthood album.
"Arrow" "The Ocean" <3<3<3 "Hell" "Night Watch" "Northshore" are all big standouts.

Sainthood is my least favourite of their albums but I'd be lying if I said it didn't have a few gems on it. It's too bad that the songs I don't care for bring the album down (in my view) and as a result I was never able to get into the record as a whole the way I have for all of their others.

I saw them in Pittsburgh for the third time in less than a year and still couldn't get enough of their music!!!
Their stage talks with the audience are endearing, and there's nothing quite like screaming along to "Now I'm All Messed Up" and songs from The Con live! *sighs*
The setlist was a nice balance:
9 Heartthrob songs (all but Love They Say)
12 old songs
1 cover

Incredible performers. Just got back and, ugh. They were absolutely fantastic. Engaging, hilarious, energetic, positive - they just epitomize everything good about music.
