Second single from the album "Picture Perfect". This could see them get some airplay seeing as it's much more radio friendly than lead single "Like It Is". A solid post-grunger. Goes for adds February 16th.

Pretty good although I admittedly expected "Surrounded". Maybe for single 3.

While it may be more radio friendly (I haven't heard it yet), the lack of airplay for "Like It Is" doesn't bode well for this song's opportunity for success.

I remember this being more memorable than "Like It Is," so I'd assume maybe it will do a little better, but I'm not expecting a whole lot.

Really? "Like It Is" was too heavy and out of control for radio to play it imo. "Lesser Man" on the other hand is perfect for radio. A more slower, grungier effort. I wouldn't rule out a slow rise to the top 20 on Active.

You could say that I suppose. Sure, if you wanted to be totally wrong. |

Well, they're both ""slower & grungier", which is the point.
