Apologies if already started, but I didn't see it on page one or two.
This is the lead single from the new disc. I've heard it already a few times on alt. stations. A classic, almost disco sounding big hit in the making.

Holy smokes! I wasn't aware that these guys were still around! I bought "All The Pain That Money Could Buy" back when "The Way," "Fire Escape," and "Out Of My Head" were tearing up the charts and I remember seeing them at my second concert ever with The Goo Goo Dolls and Sugar Ray, but then I figured they just dropped off the face of the earth.

No, they put two more albums out and have been played mostly on adult contemporary. That's why I always check out old bands on Wikipedia every so often, to see what they're up to. |

Heard it twice so far. This is the only single I remember besides The Way.

"Out Of My Head" was pretty darn huge at pop formats.

"Out Of My Head" was pretty darn huge at pop formats. Just heard it today on my pop station actually, and it reminded me of this thread. |

I heard Little White Lies on a Modern station this afternoon. It reminded me of the same thing.

I loved Fire Escape and Out Of My Head from back in the day.
Just heard this and was so surprised how good it is! Hope it does something.

After a few more listens this song actually could fit into Modern nicely. What's funny though is that after repeated listens I found myself thinking this sounds like something else....
Then I figured it out......this is what the Wonders (That Thing You Do) would sound like if they released something now.... :)

Yet to hear this, but I'm not a fan of Fastball.
Well, I just know the singles and the only one I like is "Fire Escape".

My former girlfriend's mother is on record as only having liked two modern popular songs. One of them was "The Way". The other one was "Dilemma" by Nelly & Kelly Rowland.
Which could only mean one thing: She needs some serious psychiatric help for liking "Dilemma", as does anyone.
