on a semi-related note I think the singles off MSOTS should have been – Honestly, Yeah!, Baby, Lets Rock! and And So I Died.

And on a semi-related note to that semi-related note, that makes for a pretty funky sentence: “Honestly, yeah baby, lets rock! And so I died. . .”

The first single should have been Come With Me, and the second should have been an edit of Mary Star of the Sea with Jesus cut out. And not a rainbow or paz to be seen in any videos. Then Zwan would have succeeded, I tell you!

EDIT: No horses either. Including Paz! OHHHHHH!

Why would you buy it? The last single was so lame I didn't buy it, and I buy everything. I have 4 Zwan shirts for crap sakes. Yes, I am ashamed (even though one was free).

The problem with that is that it would be too long to be a single. Isn't MSOTS 8 minutes long or something? Zwan would never be able to play the song live on shows like Jay Leno, or Conan, or even SNL, since they make bands choose songs that are around 5 minutes max.

Its 8:37 on the album.

I don't care, it should still be the second single after Come With Me!

Yeah like Zwan really has to worry about being on any of those shows right now.

Zwan has run it's course. There are no more radio singles coming out for MSOTS.

Maybe it will be a radio-only single. Settle Down was played on Music Choice (one of my digital cable music channels) this past Saturday. They seem to only play the "singles" on that channel.

And by worst song ever written by Corgan you mean that it’s a totally radio-friendly song that would have worked if they had made it a single. It has a catchy riff, easy disposable lyrics that would stick in your brain, and expressing sentiments such as “Baby, lets rock” and “Baby I’m the greatest thing you got” that would have gone over great on commercial radio. Any event its more relatable, mindless as it is, than the obscurities of “Lyric”.

perhaps on radio disney, or kiis fm. no way does that song make any rock stations playlist. that song had no chance right from the get-go with the cheesy synth-organ mistake. if it were purely about getting easy lyrics out there, 'honestly' would have done better than it did. the album sucked, that's the one and only reason zwan has tanked it's debut. it's not their choice of singles, the rainbow style, billy's reputation...the album sucked, plain & simple.

Honestly was #1 on the rock station up here and got fairly heavy rotation. The album didn't suck, it had way too many cool guitar solos for it to suck ass. If anyone remembers the reviews, they were all actually fairly positive. Lyric was a terrible choice for a 2nd single and Zwan got a bad rep as being "Billy Corgan's new band." They had some of the most horrible videos ever seen and they didn't attack the airwaves with songs fast enough. There was too much dicking around, and dropping out in the middle of a tour not releasing single after single didn't help at all.
