This is the next single.
I hope 'Don't Leave Home' can get back its bullet and become a hit, but i don't see it happening.
This one is much more radio friendly, but will it even make a difference?

"Don't Leave Home" lost its bullet already? :o That sucks major ass.
Great choice! I hope it's not overlooked. So far, they've picked the right singles. Whatever happened to "Life For Rent"? ???

They skipped to 'Don't Leave Home'in America after 'Life For Rent' underachieved internationally. Of course, 'Don't Leave Home' then turned into a complete disaster internationally. :(
Doubt they'll go with LFR in America though, unless 'SIMS' becomes an unexpected huge hit and they want to push a 4th, cos it sounds quite similar to 'DLH'.

Of course, 'Don't Leave Home' then turned into a complete disaster internationally. :( Seemed I heard "Life for rent" everytime I went anywhere in Italy. So it was never released in the USA? I heard "Don't Leave Home" on PLJ once since I've been home, but that's about it. I think it is radio friendly, but "Sand In My Shoes" would've been a better follow-up. "SIMS" would've been the best second single here if they wanted any Pop airplay at all... now I think it's too late for it to matter.

As I said, "SIMS" is a strong single but that won't be enough at this point. HAC seems to only support lead singles from core female solo artists anyway.

Don't Leave Home was such a great song. I can't believe HOT AC only sent it to #21. Sand In My Shoes doesn't seem to be a good HOT AC song. But it's one of the 4 best songs on the album, to me.
1-White Flag, 2-Don't Leave Home, 3-Who Makes You 4-Feel, Life For Rent, 5-Sand In My Shoes.

I can't see this doing too well. Probably another run in the 20's for Dido. For one of the Core Hot AC Female Artists on a third single, as usual, things don't look great.

'Don't Leave Home' is always on the radio here in Halifax. I certainly expect nothing less of her new one.

Wow. I just heard this song and I really like it! It's my favorite single from the album for sure! It should have been released after Life For Rent and Don't Leave Home should've been the 4th single.

It's just the right time of the year for this song to break on to the airWAVES... it's got some "tempo", great lyrics and a refreshing end of summer lamenting sound. Dido deserves another hit, and the time is now...

I hope it does well. As was already said, it's VERY radio friendly. And it's a good song. It deserves to do well.

This song is weak, again. "Don't Leave Home" was weak, this is pretty similar. Whatever happened to her radio-friendly stuff like "Here With Me" and "Thankyou".
She's pulling an Alanis and releasing weird crap.
