Second US single from "Only Revolutions". Not expecting much after "Mountains" flopped. Goes for adds September 21st.

It would be a shame if this flopped because it's a beautiful song and the highlight of that album.

Album is sooooo under appreciated by U.S. radio. This song is fantastic but the album overall is a fantastic listen from beginning to end. So glad I don't have to rely on the radio to get my music fixes like back in the day before internet and underground scrounging.

I know that probaby releasing singles at this point makes no sense anymore, but I want "God & Satan" to be sent to radio stations so badly!

They're sending this for adds again on March 1st. Hopefully it does something this time around. This is an epic song!

Love this album. God & Satan is kinda just meh for me. Liked Machines from the previous album more.
I like Whorses. and The Captain.
I thought they sent That Golden Rule to radio, not Mountains? (Because Mountains was released much before the album was)

^"Mountains" got sent out as the first single around this time last year. They're obviously giving this a deserved second chance now.

pulsemusic.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=alternative&action=display&thread=87481Had to do some research to find that. (Stupid search feature is broken) You're right though, problem is, I never saw that topic when it was changed to Mountains, so I was still under the belief they sent That Golden Rule instead since they had released Mountains a year before the album's release. Haha. Glad I cleared that up with myself. Woulda bugged me.

Well, "That Golden Rule" didn't have an adds date when I created that thread. I just made one for new Biffy Clyro. TGR wipes the floor with "Mountains" aswell. >:(

I sadly perfer Matt Cardle's cover that he released as his X Factor winners single
Originally liked their version but then Matt kind of won me over and haven't heard Biffy's since.

Omg that was horrific. The key change going on there was particularly irritating. They just dulled down the song, everything that was interesting about the original vanished on that version.

One of the most added on alt. radio. Looks like Warner Bros. is giving them a proper push.

it sounds like they "Americanized" the song to reach a bigger audience to me
not for the better in my eyes and ears

Are you referring to the new remastered mix? You can download it for free below. ;) I'm all for it, if it's gonna bring them a hit on alt. radio. www.fmqbproductions.com/epks/2011/biffy/EDIT: Good to see you back, Stereo, btw. :)

I'm not really sure what was changed about this. Can anyone explain it to me?
EDIT: Never mind, it sounds like maybe more instrumentation on the latter? And is it louder? Actually, I admit I kind of like it.

And yes, they do need a hit on radio in north america but as much as i love this song, i really thought it would be That Golden Rule, and then they didn't bother to push it here at all. Oh well, at least I got to enjoy the song and album for that matter.

"That Golden Rule" is not a song that would do well here.

If this does well on rock, they could try to crossover this to pop and HAC. I think it could at least get Top 30 or Top 20 on HAC.

I really like this song. Hope I get to hear it more without having to do all the work myself. It reminds me of something like "Run" by Snow Patrol.
