"Sucker Train Blues" was scrapped in favor of "Dirty Little Thing" which will go for adds on January 4.

I thought "Superhuman" was slated to be the third single.
Ah well, this should do pretty well anyway.

I think "Sucker Train Blues" would've done better.

This was instantly better than "Fall To Pieces".

I'm not sure but I think this sounds exactly like "Sucker Train Blues". At least one part does.
And I think someone forgot to tell both Seattle Active Rock stations that they replaced "Sucker Train Blues". KISW is playing it like crazy, and I think KFNK is wavering between both songs.

This isn't doing that great. Yeah, I would consider this a disappointment right now with the way it's crawling up the chart. I felt Velvet Revolver could enjoy Audioslave-like success, but it looks like they'll only go off with half of theirs and may close the album at three singles. Besides, Velvet Revolver have announced they're already pushing for a year-end release of their next album. Sincerely, Noah Eaton |

It's becoming my favorite VR single hit. This and "Slither" would be neck and neck as A's. "Set Me Free"'s about a B+, with "Fall To Pieces at a B-. I still don't have this album, but I will get around to it eventually. |

Wow, that video is badass. Too bad it'll never get shown on TV if for no other reason than A) the song isn't a big enough hit and B) accordingly, the video came out too late.

It's interesting how the band's first released material ended up on a soundtrack, and radio's anxiety was so huge that it pushed the song into the top 40 as a soundtrack cut. I always thought of it as a flop single until now. |

Man. Scott Weiland is only 37? He looks early-50s in the "DLT" video (besides the bright red hair, of course).

Matt and Duff) and I think they're all just (pushing) 40-ish. Scott's herky-jerky dancing in the video, red spiky hair, occasional bugged-out eyes, and the white sport coat remind me of Johnny Lydon (Rotten) from his Public Image Ltd. days. |

I just think it's ironic that there was such confusion over whether it'd be this song or "Sucker Train Blues" for the third single, and then when they do a video for this one, it features a runaway train.
I'm liking this one a little more with each time I hear it, but I don't think this is at all superior to "Slither", and just barely superior to "Fall To Pieces". I still don't understand why they had to have the verses in this and STB sound exactly the same, though.

Wow, I really didn't care for Slither when it came out. Fall to Pieces was amazing, but it was overplayed. This song really stands out on the radio when you hear it...it's probably their best single yet, IMO.
