The most obvious single on the album, and with a hefty amount of crossover potential, this juggernaut goes for adds on October 27th. I fully expect this to do well. This is from FMQB.

I actually heard this hot Toad the Wet Sprocket remake on the radio the other day. It sounds just as generic as everything else they've put out for the last 5 years, so I'm sure it'll do well.

i actually prefer generic songs. In the end, it is catchy, and that does it for me.

For us Canadians, this really reminds me of State of Shock. Great song.

I was hoping that the second single would be "This is It" Technically it was a single. Digital single release on iTunes

Digital single release on iTunes I don't think all itunes singles are really technical "singles," there are often some b-sides and other stuff that itunes labels as singles just to make it simple. Therefore, I don't know if you could really call it a single. State Of Shock blows. Money Honey is dead in the US So much negativity from you

The Bieler Bros. would really really appreciate it if people would just not remember Saigon Kick anymore.

Well me I was initially thinking of it to be a hot Cure remake. (An album cut from Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me.)

My brother had the tape, too. This was the follow-up single to "Love Is on the Way" at the very beginning of '93. It didn't really go anywhere, though, unless it was a minor Rock hit, or something. I vaguely remember seeing its snowy video maybe a few times at best on The Box...I just checked YouTube for it and it's perhaps the one video of theirs not posted. The Bieler Bros. would really really appreciate it if people would just not remember Saigon Kick anymore. Oh yeah? Why's that? I don't know the story.

It's actually a less enthusiastic Alanis Morisette remake.

I was kind of joking, because I've read in a couple of places where Bieler will joke about Saigon Kick, so I was just kind of continuing the tradition, I guess.

I had to re-listen to the album to see what this sounded like again. I was really hoping one of their harder tracks, but this would definitely be the one song that would be huge no matter when it was released. I can see this doing even better than "Believe" and having tremendous crossover potential as well in a few months. I'm basically preparing for myself to be sick of it in the near future, but for now I like it a lot.

Duh! 3:30 of crafted pop sunshine. These guys have been around for awhile and I think they wanted to hit this one out of the park and I think "All I Want" has the potential to do it. I would love to see an Alternative release for "The Way I Am" for those needing an edgier Staind on the radio.

I like this song, but after listening to much of this album I can't help but be disappointed AGAIN by the rather s**tty overall sonic quality of this album. The post-production/mixing is just s**t, as with their previous albums. It almost sounds like i'm listening to a 96 kbps mp3. Chapter V sounded the same. Some songs are better than others.

As someone who actually did have their songs ripped at 96kbps until a couple weeks ago, I can't complain. But yeah, they don't sound much different.

Sorry, this song breaks them from me. Staind are now the Goo Goo Dolls of the nu / grunge era.
