Someone posted on the No Doubt fan forum that they were able to access Universal Music's B2B site (see link to screenshot below) and saw that "Star a War" is listed for a release on 11/9. November 9th is a Monday and corresponds with the first live show of The Voice so I'm guessing the label is timing its release with what likely will be Gwen's first televised performance of the song. www.gopix.fr/share-6453_55CBB7EF.html"Start a War" is a ballad written by Sia (not sure if Gwen receives co-writing credit) and was performed live back in February at Gwen's Mastercard concert in Los Angeles (please see below for video). It's obviously a break up song which is interesting timing considering the recent news of Gwen + Gavin's divorce. Let's hope this is true and leads to the release of her third solo album finally! :))

So why lock her back up in the studio if your just going to use a record that's been done. I don't get it but all the best to Gwen and this campaign

The track is co-written by Gwen and Sia and it's produced by Arnthor Birgisson according to the credits of the CD Maxi of "Baby Don't Lie" from Discogs. That said, it's mentioned there that the physical single release would be in the UK, although I think that this is a typo and it's Germany instead, on October 16 as a bonus track.

After Baby Don't Lie and especially Spark the Fire underperforming, I'm a little leary about this. I wish Gwen the best (and I've always LOVED her music--well, most music)! Don't disappoint!

It doesn't have to be a real single to be listed as an "eSingle", it might be just one random "permanent download" guaranteed from some maxi-single bundle, (might be from the digital bundle from Baby Don't Lie), need to wait and see later. BTW, I also have access to UMG's B2B site, obviously there wasn't a single listed there. See my screencap below, I already sorted by release date.

I'm confused, then how come "SAW" was listed when the other person accessed UMGB2B? Either way, it seems like some sort of new release is brewing for the Fall to coincide with her return to The Voice.

(I'm going to move this to Non-Singles for now; we can move it back once it's officially a single.)

My expectations of this are fairly low after the tragedies 'BDL' & 'STF' were.
