i love suckertrain but there's something about it that tells me it wouldn't be a big hit. maybe cos it's so classic sounding.


"Do it for the kids" is my favorite song! I wasn't expecting it to be considered as a single. but now that it is it better beat out Big Machine!

I would go with headspace, illegal I, Dirty Little Thing before I go with Big Machine!

I hope the band like Do it for the kids better

You got no right definitely should be the 4th single but right now let's go with

"do it for the kids" It's Scott best vocal performance on the album and some amazingly fresh sounding guitar parts from Slash!

I'm disappointed for the alck of options.. FUnny superhuman was rumored as the third single.. No matter

I would have listed dirty litle thing, ygnr, headspace.. Big machine is cool, just very repetative for me.I picked do it for the kids, but neither were my pics of the remaining songs off contraband.. Nice we got to pick

Blah.... Do It For The Kids or Big Machine??  It shouldn't be either....

I picked Do It For The Kids, I can't believe that it's almost 50/50!!

The guys are probably planning on releasing YGNR after this.

Big Machine!!!

I actually think DIFTK could be a good single. It is kind of catchy and has a good riff.


Title: Re: Vote for next VR single!
Post by: Acquiesce on October 08, 2004, 04:23:32 PM
I think Big Machine would be more successful but I prefer DIFTK. Decisions, Decisions.  :hihi: Wow, it's dead even at 50-50.

If you have SP2 make sure you temporarily allow pop-ups.

Thanks for the pop-up advice.  : ok:

Im with you...I easily like "DIFTK" better, but I have a feeling "Big Machine" might catch on.  :-\

Voted "DITFK"  (which is currently in the lead).  Although neither would have been my first pick... :-X

I went Big Machine, it kicks a cool groove..


Title: Re: Vote for next VR single!
Post by: darkdays_01 on October 08, 2004, 11:03:21 PM
i went with Big Machine, i like DIFTK's but i think BM would be a great single and catch on very quickly, Suckertrain would be the best choice , and Illegal I is my favorite song off CB but i am not quite sure on how it would do single wise though.

now that Do it for the kids is being considered it better still win! :hihi:


I think Do it for the Kids or Illegal I would make a better single because they have catchier chorus's, melodies and harmonies.

do it for the kids is Scott's best vocal performance on the record I believe.

don't get me wrong Sucker train is still my one of my top 3-4 fav songs but I think releasing it would be like releasing Brownstone over Paradise City

I voted Big Machine and YGNR.

I think someone found away to make a computer keep voting for DIFTK's cause there is no way it got 3000 votes compared to 100 for Big machine since i last looked at it yesterday


Title: Re: Vote for next VR single!

im too computer illiterate

i cant ever get VR's site to work for me, so cluttered and shit, i hate it.

what are the choices?

Do it for the Kids or Headspace to me are the logical choices

Superhuman is my fav but the cocaine references would probably hurt it on radio etc


STB is a good rocker but not what i consider to be a radio friendly single it to me is more of a great rockin live tune but may not necessarily work as a single



Big machine fits in the STB category


headspace,DIFTK, or even dirty  little thing would be good as next singles

my fav of course is Superhuman but not sure how the drug references would play out on radio.

Post by: Top-Hatted One on October 09, 2004, 09:53:25 PM
I agree with every single thing you said although I would also include Illegal I as a great choice but it's losing at v-r.com

Do It FOr The Kids sucks

Do It FOr The Kids sucks

I wouldnt go as far as saying it sucks, but to me it is the weakest track on Contrband, minus Set Me Free, not that it is weak , it just sounds dated on the album, I think Illegal I is the strongest track on the cd but i just dont see it doing well as a single. My thought changes day to day on this subject , right know i say Suckertrain Blues or Spectacle.

I tried to go on the site and vote but coldn't even find it. They need to run that shit better.

Guys, make sure you allow pop-ups. The voting thing is a pop-up so if you are not seeing it that's why.

I ended up voting for Big Machine since it has a more commercial feel.


Title: Re: Vote for next VR single!
Post by: Cowboy Buddha on October 11, 2004, 08:05:16 PM
there's a new pop up...
What Should Our Next Single Be?
Sucker Train Blues
Do It For The Kids
Big Machine
Illegal I Song
Spectacle
Headspace
Superhuman
You Got No Right
Dirtly Little Thing
Loving The Alien


Vote Sucker Train Blues!!!!

You can still vote as much as you want. That is fucking lame. You think whoever made teh poll would be smarter than that....


Title: Re: Vote for next VR single!
Post by: tomass74 on October 11, 2004, 10:17:57 PM
Their official site sucks ass.  You can't even find anywhere to send the admin a suggestion.  They really need to fix the poll.


Title: Re: Vote for next VR single!
Post by: tomass74 on October 11, 2004, 10:35:35 PM
Everytime you refresh over there , there is like 20 more votes for DIFTK's....It i sso obvious that someone has a script set up from their computer.  %^&%#$%*

There is a way to set up a script so that your computer just keeps voting. They really need to get a clue over on teh official site.
