Sweet. Good choice. Where did "Mind Over Matter" end up peaking? Remember it stalling in the 30s for a while before rising to like 25 and then I stopped keeping track lol.

Seriously, how long have I been waiting for this to be a single. I mean no pun intended but IT'S ABOUT TIME
Now watch it flop cause it's been so long since "It's About Time"

Oooh. I like this more than "It's About Time" and maybe better than "Mind Over Matter."

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
This shoulda been single #2. I'm already charting this so I'm glad I guessed right.

Young The Giant is so underated and I don't know why? "It's About Time" shoulda gone #1. "Mind Over Matter" Top 5. This is another Great track and I'll be mighty displeased if it's overlooked again.

Cody. Right. They obvously don't mingle with the right big wigs in the music biz. Either that or they need a new manager?

That label is notorious for coming up just short on alternative...in fact I think their only alternative #1s were the two Fun. songs that got there in 2012. |

This song isn't bad, but I just don't see what the fuss is about. It's sounds like many other mediocre Indie songs to my ears. I'm sure Shadows in the Dark will agree with me? |

I actually haven't heard this yet, but I've never been a fan of Young the Giant, so I'm pretty sure I won't be big on this as well.  |

This is a great third single choice. Mind Over Matter ended up growing on me so I can't say I like this one better than that yet, but it could have easily been the second single choice. Hopefully it can rise a little quicker than MoM though.

Obvious choice. I think it still has potential to go Top 5 on Alternative, despite "Mind Over Matter"'s shortcomings. Only thing I'm really worried about is that adds date. Hopefully it won't get lost in the shuffle during the holiday season.

It's pleasant and all but that's about it. For me it's on par with "Mind Over Matter", which I wasn't too wowed by either.

Debuts at #37 on this week's Billboard Alternative Songs chart. Quality song, could do without that howl at the beginning though

The start this song is having after "Mind Over Matter" failed to hit the top 10 is encouraging. Hopefully they can pull a Cage The Elephant and have this go top 10 anyway. It would really set them up nicely for the staying power they deserve and album #3.
