I really like this song and I could have seen the 4th single being any one of about four remaining album tracks that I had in mind, including this one so I'm not opposed to this choice. He'll definitely pick up atleast yet another top 10 here. HAC loves their Rob Thomas!

Not quite my absolute favorite of the remaining tracks, but it is one of the better ones.

This is great, I love this song.  The only other song I would've liked to be a single instead is "Streetcorner Symphony" |

This is a killer track from the album and among Rob's best, but it's not the best fourth single candidate either.
The production is tempting, but this is also one of Rob's angrier songs, and outside of the "Yourself Or Someone Like You" era, his more masculine side performs weaker commerically than his more feminine side.
In being an artist, after all, it's great to have a balance, and in fact a part of me is actually pleased this is being released on an artistic level. But commerically, I don't expect this to do much even here, and "Streetcorner Symphony" and "Problem Girl" both would make stronger releases.
"Streetcorner Symphony" by far would have made the best fourth single in time for the spring-summer wind-down and embracing the sunshine again.
I feel it can make the Top 20 here, but even that may be overly optimistic considering matchbox twenty got more airplay off their last album than Rob Thomas has off this album to date, and "Downfall" was a fourth single that peaked at #27 here.
My Prediction: #18
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

The fourth single from Rob! Just curious where you heard this. So far I've only seen this being released as the next single in Australia. |

I think "Streetcar Symphony" would have been the better single choice because it has an awesome summer vibe to it, but this will still do well.

Okay, are they going to bleep out the "shit" or dub over it? Great song. Hope it actually happens.

Okay, are they going to bleep out the "s**t" or dub over it? Great song. Hope it actually happens. Whenever they play Everlast's "What It's Like", they bleep out "whore", so I'm assuming they'll do the same with the "downtown whore" lyric in "Something To Be". I'm guessing they'll dub "shit" too, since they do that with "Hand In My Pocket" by Alanis Morissette. Sincerely, Noah Eaton |
