NICE! I saw it had gotten an add. This has the potential to be their first legitimately successful follow-up single after all their lead singles have done well.

YES. YES. YES. This is my favorite off the new album. So glad they picked it. If they're lucky enough for a third, if they close the era out with Don't Fight It, I'm going to be so happy. I know, getting ahead of myself but I'm just excited after wondering what they were going to follow up Shoot It Out with for awhile.

Much better than Shoot It Out. Perfect single choice!

I would have been suprised if they hadn't gone with this. Although, "The Wicked Ones" & "Don't Fight It" would have been fine selections too.

I'm not getting the love for "The Wicked Ones" or "Don't Fight It". I'd go with "Waking Up The Ghost" for a heavier track and "One More Day" for the crossover shot, but if I'm in the minority, they probably shouldn't listen to me. "Now Is The Time" would also be a good heavier cut for radio if the chorus didn't plagiarize "Scream With Me". If they're trying to crossover with the third single, then "One More Day" would be my pick if "Fix Me" can do enough damage.

There probably will be a third one.
"Fix Me" was more instant for me than "Shoot it Out". I guess because "Fix Me" is a little more generic than "Shoot it Out" (not saying it is).

Top 50 on active:
56 49 10 YEARS Fix Me 99 59 40 0.222
While it still hasn't gone for adds, it was originally supposed to go for adds at the beginning of the month so the fact that this is just now going top 50 isn't a super promising sign to me.

7 adds today, making it the second-most added song this week just behind Sixx:A.M.'s 10 for Lies of the Beautiful People.
It's also on the chart as well:
53 43 10 YEARS Fix Me 155 71 84 0.37

Definitely! They've definitely got some material for a third.

You like "Don't Fight It". I like "The Wicked Ones". Jamie likes "Waking Up the Ghost".
All good options to me.

I would want "Now Is The Time" if the chorus wasn't Mudvayne - "Scream" with different (albeit better) vocals.

I'm good with either "Now Is The Time," "Chasing The Rapture," or "Waking Up The Ghost."

In the chorus of "Now Is The Time", the guitar part, bass part, and drums are pretty much nearly identical to those same parts in the chorus of "Scream With Me". IDENTICAL. (well up a half-step, but otherwise).
In the absence of "Scream With Me", "Now Is The Time" would probably be my pick for single #3 even though I would still think "Waking Up The Ghost" is a better song. "Fade Into (The Ocean)" is probably my favorite song on the album, but that doesn't really sound like a single unless they're wanting to get all the Tool/prog fans to back them.

Haha meaning everything that's not the vocals? They might as well have just sung over Mudvayne's track. It's blatantly the same.
Despite all that, I still like "Now Is The Time" better than "Scream With Me" and that's including my mental deduction for a ripoff into the equation. Otherwise, I'd like it WAY more.
