I think they should go with Before You Were Young with something memorable about the release (promotion should not count as unusual :( ) like a free download of the song from the website or a feature length film with an extended remix version of the entire album as the soundtrack or an online streaming gig! With integral chatroom facilities :D |

It's true....there wouldn't be a point, at least in western markets.
Chinese Blues....best song on the album, would be my next single after Song To Self. |

Quite Free would be a great single and it sounds radio friendly, but I don't know if that matters. J. Smith is not radio friendly, and when I heard it on the radio it sounded amazing!
Maybe Long Way Down? I don't know... |

Fran has already spoken of it getting a possible release. They're releasing 3 b-sides for each single. We have 2 confirmed for Song To Self. Maybe the 3rd can be the middle 8 version. :) |
