I still think Shackler's would be a good single. I thought CD was a horrible choice and it would tank, while Better would race up the charts..... I was wrong. Shacklers has the same feel as CD does and is pretty damn catchy and radio friendly/ready.

I would love to see TWAT released, but I also don't want to see it butchered. If The Blues is released as a single CD is officially dead with zero chance of revival.

the only way TWAT, Catcher and ITW would work as singles would be if they were backed up by an epic video production...NR style...which gets massive airplay partially because it is so overblown in its thematic and size...to show off the new songs and members in as epic a way as possible...

but chances of that happening are slim to none...so i'd rather have those songs unreleased and still good, then butchered in some mediocre way...

On second thought, I am so far removed from current pop culture and radio playlists that I really am clueless as to what songs would be a "hit".

Absolutely - there's no question, in my mind, that TWAT deserves a November Rain style epic video. I always entertained hopes, when Buckethead was still in the band, that we'd get a TWAT video in which Bucket emerges from a chicken coop on top of the same mountain that played host to the church from the November Rain video. He does his massive solo, and is then beamed up to a waiting spaceship to return to his home planet, his work on Earth done.

Yeah, I'm thinking Louie Armstrong will join up for that open trumpet spot, too.
