Fourth single from Gasoline hits radio on March 20th. It makes sense since it's already been a single in other areas and it's pretty much the only obvious single that hasn't gone on radio yet. I'm surprised by how much mileage they're getting out of Gasoline.

SWEET! I'm glad they're releasing this song in the U.S. It did really well up here in Canada. hopefully it can carry on in the States.

It's about time, but I really really liked Say Goodbye And I think the reason they tried a fourth single is because they've been touring for this album like mad and want to squeeze every possible inch they can out of this album. This puts a good finishing touch on the album.

This is crazy. I've already played the song out when it was hot in Canada. I'll still give it a second serving.

I love this song. "Nothing Could Come Between Us" is the only other song of theirs I love more. I'm actually not sick of this but that's probably because I'm not a frequent radio listener. However, I'm so burned out over the video, I remember catching it almost all the time on Muchmusic. I always loved watching their videos, particularly because they seem to have a hot chick in them most of the time LOL.

I'm sorry for the delayed response here, but I think Nicholas meant it is pathetic because they resort to having a hot chick in every single video, perhaps to make up for the fact that their songs are, let's say, less than stellar.
It's like '80s hair metal. Each of their songs had a hot chick in their video; perhaps to take away from the fact the music, let's say, sucked.
Let's just say that, if I were Theory of a Deadman, I would make sure there were at least five hot chicks in every video.

Wow , this sounds like an 80s power ballad . It's the first time I ever heard a song from them and judging by this the Nickelback comparisons are off , thank god ! Maybe they should send it to HAC also.

Maybe they should send it to HAC also. It isn't being sent to HAC but it's going for AC adds in two weeks.

Let's just say that, if I were Theory of a Deadman, I would make sure there were at least five hot chicks in every video. Oh yeah, I totally forgot to respond to that. This is pretty much right, but I dunno, it's not so much about the lackluster songs, even. I mean, at least the hair metal bands had an image and a lifestyle to live up to. A random, heavily featured hot chick in a video, especially in a band lacking an image like ToaD, pretty much indicates they have no visual ideas, and the director doesn't know what else to do, so it might as well appeal to the lowest-common-denomenator of audience that likes the style of music they play.

It's another C-range song from the ToaD. I'll give 'em that they've at least been able to put forth some listenable songs off of Gasoline. The singles from Theory Of A Deadman were awful because they sounded outclassed. "No Surprise" sucked because it tried so hard to be artificially macho. But "Hello Lonely" and this song, the only thing I can hold against those is that they just aren't up my alley.
