Single three goes to radio the week of August 2 says Billboard.
I have the Forenever CD, but I don't recall this song. I'll give it a listen to see if it's familiar. Hope these guys can get back on the radio with this one.

This is from Fornever? This track wasn't memorable at all from what I recall...I'll have to give it another listen and repost my opinion. I was kinda hoping for You Need to Be Here.

It's sad for me to say that whatever song they choose from an album with many good songs on it has a very good chance of doing nothing :(

Hoobastank is a very underminded band in my opinion. Well upon a listen, the chorus sounds similar to So Close, So Far to be honest, In fact almost too similar. But I do actually like this song. I'm surprised it never stood out before.

Vanessa Amorosi? You mean the teenage girl who sang "Absolutely Everybody" or whatever it was called 10 years ago?

No idea who that is. She's not a featured artist on the actual CD from what I could find from the booklet. I am guessing it's a new recording or remix.

yes it is her...and I love that f'n song, lol. This version is better than without her IMO. I'm sure a lot will disagree but I love her voice.

Alternativeaddiction.com shows a Hoobastank "best of" album being released tomorrow, although I cannot find anyone who is selling it. And with only four top tens, it makes no sense to put one out anyway.

I liked "Who The Hell Am I" and "Tears Of Yesterday" more than this.

I love how this song begins, it feels like it has so much potential. It never holds my attention much longer though.

Did "So Close, So Far" do anything, or even go for adds?

Did it actually go for adds though? If so i'm suprised it didn't do better. This new single will do jack btw.

Rockdirt.com has posted the video. I must say I am impressed with the solo female verse and the combined chorus. It stands out nicely from the original, especially considering the content of the song. I hope they make this available as a CD single because so far it's better than the original for me.
