I guess this is their next single. Plus, it's been getting some airplay lately.

They're obviously not able to push this as hard as they would have with Capitol Records behind it. I don't think it's even gone for adds yet, and it's been out for over a month now. It's been averaging 20-40 plays per week on active rock, 10-20 plays on alternative, and single digit plays on mainstream rock. This band deserves to be one of the bigger rock bands of the decade.

If this is their next single, I totally called it. I hope it ends up being a SMASH.

I'm betting against it. Not on the merits of the song, but because it should have already hit top 50 by not if it was going to do much. I hope I'm wrong though!

why did Capitol Records drop them? Um, because neither album sold particularly well? Not too difficult to figure out, I wouldn't think...especially within the past 5 years. |

Meh. "World Ain't Right" is not a single worthy song. Just cause it has Morgan doesn't mean it's a chartbuster.

World Ain't Right sucks ass. This is a fine single choice, though if "Wars" didn't blow up, nothing off this will.

Ok I'm thinking that their drop from Capitol Records was almost as unfair as Eve 6's drop from RCA (Think Twice is one of my all time favs)

It's about sales, right? In fairness to Capitol, Hurt probably wasn't getting it done for them in that department. That said, Hurt is probably one of the best bands they've ever had on their roster.
