Excellent choice. My personal favorite song on the album and it ranked the highest on iTunes of the album tracks at release. Not sure how well it will do though.

I thought Superfast Jellyfish was supposed to be the second single.

My personal fave. Whoever has to make the decisions on the singles is in a tough position because there are so many amazing songs on their album.

This would be a great lead single for Plastic Beach! My fave on the album too

Hopefully the flop of Stylo doesn't hamper this one too badly.

Yeah, I'm confused.. I thought it was Superfast Jellyfish as well, then I saw the video for On Melancholy Hill on iTunes and figured they went with that. So, this is actually the 2nd single? Does anyone know why they did the video for On Melancholy Hill? This is pretty good, but I prefer On Melancholy Hill to this.

They did a video for "On Melancholy Hill" because it's the second single in the UK.

So glad to see its sudden increase. I don't get why it didn't happen sooner, though. Sounds like a summer jam to me.

It's a good song. Not immediate for everyone, but I think it stands out.

I dunno, with the exception of "On Melancholy Hill", "Superfast Jellyfish", and "Stylo", I'm having a hard time feeling anything on the album stand out to me, and that's not a knock on the album. It feels like it was made to be the soundtrack to something more than an actual album with songs. I mean, some of the songs barely go anywhere before they cut to the next song. It's just not really built for what I'd understand as radio.

I see what you're saying. It seems a lot of the songs are groove-centered. This album is sick, though.

The background vocals are cool indeed. Good single choice my fav from the album. :) Me too! The album is excellent but this song is really hot.
