Third single from We Are Not Alone.
Goes for adds: June 21st.
I'd been expecting Forget It for the longest time.

Pretty cool, low key song. Nice to see it be released, but I doubt it'll do much, at least a rock/alt radio.

Supposedly, the song has been re-recorded and "My Immortal-ized". There's a band version. They didn't play it live at the show that I'd gone to, but apparently, they'd been playing around with it at recent shows.

Man, what's with these songs that I don't even remember off the album getting released? I'd listened to "Sooner or Later" maybe once by the time it was announced as a single (I thought they'd have gone with "Simple Design", "Break My Fall", or "Breakdown"), and I thought for sure that "Forget It" was going to be third.
I also notice that "Rain" is the last track on the album, and that it's 6 minutes long. WTF?

They're releasing an acoustic song for the summer, with the chorus being "rain, rain, go away, come again another day", and adding electric guitars to it?
I wish they released "Follow".

Not a bad song, but a bad single choice (especially considering that "Forget It" is on the album... I mean come on, if you're gonna release a ballad, that's the obvious choice).

Considering how good 'Away' is, I'm not sure why 'Rain' is being released as a single.
I can only pray that it doesn't get popular, for the destruction of one of the better rock bands would be quick and painful, and probably something that they would likely never recover from (see: Seether, Sugar Ray).
What's with the need for labels to release the one slow song as a single, no matter how bad or boring it may be? It boggles the mind.

Sugar Ray was never a rock band in the first place. I like this, but definately would perfer "Forget It"

I like this song a lot, but this isn't a radio single. At all. I would have preferred "Forget It" as well.

Lemonade and Brownies? Floored?
