As soon as I heard this while listening to the album I KNEW it was going to be a single. Prefect choice. This has HIT written all over it! I played it for my wife and she immediately agreed it sounded like a hit. Hoping it is for these guys. Love this band.

they should have held off on this, Hollow Moon has a legitimate shot at a short #1 stay now that there are two conflicting Mumford singles out there. Good choice regardless though, it was among the album's standouts imo.

This is a good choice. "Dreamers," "Windows," and "Woman Woman" are also great choices for future singles.

One of my favorites from the album and probably the second best single choice. "Woman Woman" has to be next. They were both on the featured sticker for the album, so it's more than likely.

This could be their "Starlight". No, really.

Good choice. One of the most radio friendly songs off the album, although I wouldn't have minded "KOOKSEVERYWHERE!!!" as well.

Good choice (though I wanted "Windows") but I agree, why ship this off to radio right while "Hollow Moon" could still potentially get to #1? I assume PlayMPE doesn't constitute a formal impact date, if I'm not mistaken?

I feel like they released this too fast as I wouldn't say "Hollow Man" isn't even close to stale or overplayed yet. Anyway, I think this song is decent. The chorus is too repetitive for me. "Hollow Moon" is a better song in my opinion.

I really expected and wanted "Windows" but this is good too. I hope to see "Dreamers" in the future. "Hollow Moon" still feels kinda new to me though, this seems kinda preemptive. I love the album though.

I'm in the minority here , but this sounds too repititious in the chorus. I guess you have to be a fan of their style to like their music; which I'm really not.

I think this is a great choice. I kind of get a light version of "Sail" vibe from it. I thought "Windows" was going to be next as well, but I'm pleasantly surprised by this choice. Overall, the album is pretty solid so they have some great options.

Another "good" but not "great" song. I liked last album's first three singles more than the first two this time around.

This is used in a Red Bull commercial I saw on Youtube actually. Not sure if the commercial is going to be on TV or not.

Still not a fan. Sounds like that "Demons" song from Imagine Dragons that bored me to tears. I also don't get the appeal of this style? To me it sounds like something that would cross over to mainstream pop.

This might be my favorite Alternative single of the year so far. The chorus just has that epic feel to it, and I can see this being used for sports game and commercials. This should be a big hit for them.
