A few weeks ago, a few sites including MTV.com stated that 3DD's cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "That Smell" MAY[/i] be released as a single from "Another 700 Miles".
If so, do you think this would disrupt potential future singles from "Away From The Sun" (including the title track)?
from MTV.com:
The live disc will feature six songs, including the new track "It's Not Me," which was written in New Orleans in March when the band entered the studio to record some acoustic numbers. "We were like, 'Hey, we're already here, let's do a demo for the label,' " Henderson said.
The tune, which is about the breakup of a husband and wife, sounded so good, the band added it to its live repertoire and decided to include it on the live EP. Another 700 Miles was recorded earlier this year at shows in Cleveland, Chicago and Cincinnati and features the album cuts "Duck and Run," "When I'm Gone," "Kryptonite," "Here Without You" and a cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "That Smell," which may be released as a single.

I hope that is not the case.
3 Doors Down really need to promote a new single to Alternative and Active Rock that is harder, if there will have any hope in saving their Alternative and Active Rock audience, which they have said numerous times they would be devastated if they lost it, and that is not a cover either.
I surely hope they're considering releasing either "Away From The Sun" or one of their harder songs next.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

Oh god I hope they don't release "That Smell" as a single. I am sure they cover it well but they really need to promote "Away From The Sun" more.

They need to release another "duck and run" type song, and have to go into it with the mindset of whatever will most likely succeed on active rock. I don't have their CD, so I don't have any candidates. |

"Dangerous Game", "Going Down In Flames", or maybe "Running Out of Days" would be good candidates for a harder fourth single, and I don't think any of them would be too hard to alienate the pop crowd either.

Oh please NO!! We have had enough covers and remakes this year! >:(
I agree that we need some harder rock songs from 3DD to hit the charts. I loved Kryptonite & Duck and Run!

Now that I have had the chance to hear "That Smell", I am pleasantly surprised with the new version by 3DD. I could see some limited play for the song before "Away From The Sun" kicks in.

I haven't heard this song, but I have heard "Away from the Sun" and it was really good. I hope they don't release "That Smell" simply because we do not need another cover.

I heard that song and it's not bad, but it's not going to be a radio song that's for sure. It's about 6 minutes. I'd rather they release 'It's Not Me' from that same EP, otherwise I wouldn't have either song on the radio.
Away from the Sun or Changes would probably make a better choice for a single. I'm not a big fan of their 2nd album, but those songs stood out.

Definitely their best single yet. Should've hit #1 on Rock, Hot AC, Urban, and Rhythmic radio.
