It's certainly a stomper and an epic Horn production which I love.
Its all too short in my opinion - a Trevor Horn extended version must certainly appear dont you think?

other artists just dont do songs like these

- which may or may not be the problem when it's released as a single.
Kids buy and download singles and I think it's too arty and intelligent to chart well.

Must be the next single!! Remember that most people don't listen to the lyrics with a song like this. This is a stomper and like I'm with stupid it will work excellent live. Here's looking forward to the summer concerts.

For all the people who think "Integral" has to be the next single and it's one of the greatest songs of the album I said that, according to Neil, "Integral" is not a big hit (for him the big hits of this album are "I'm with stupid", "Numb", "Minimal" and " The Sodom And Gomorrah Show".
The next singles seem to be "Minimal" and "Numb". I'm agree with you, "Integral" has to be a single but, as I said before, PSB and EMI don't think the same.

What a pity!, for me Integral is the second best song of the album. The best one for me is "The Sodom And Gomorrah Show" (which I think is a new classic).

I haven't heard the rest of the songs, only Integral, I'm with stupid and Luna. Things can change. Earlier Minimal was going to be the first single. Popjustice seem to like Integral a lot to.

like it alot

if it does become a single, then its very unique for them

i just wish the vocals were a bit clearer and a little catchier.... because the lyrics are very strong.... although the chorus is very punchy

The more I listen to it the more I think that its simply BRILLIANT!

Please let it b the next single!

If it's not a single, then someone has gone off the deep end.

Oh! I have all my hopes on that...and I think it will work better for me in an extended way...
I found it too over-the-top since the very first beginning of the track...I personally like better the songs where there are some intensity growing up as the minutes goes by, but Integral show it´s highest touch too early for me...
...like a stripper introducing his act naked...what we have to discover after that? A desperate move to catch your attention on the first seconds, but with the opposite effect on me...
I'm with stupid works perfectly on that way, and I still refuse to listen to Minimal, but judging the reviews, if the strongest part is at the end, I´ll work for me too...

Long live us
the persuaded we
integral
collectively
to the whole project
it’s brand new
conceived solely
to protect you

One world
One reason
Unchanging
One season

If you’ve done nothing wrong
you’ve got nothing to fear
If you’ve something to hide
you shouldn’t even be here
You’ve had your chance
now we’ve got the mandate
If you’ve changed your mind
I’m afraid it’s too late
We’re concerned
you’re a threat
You’re not integral
to the project

Everyone has
their own number
in the system that
we operate under
We’re moving to
a situation
where your lives are simply
information

One world
One life
One chance
One reason
All under
one sky
unchanging
one season

If you’ve done nothing wrong
you’ve got nothing to fear
If you’ve something to hide
you shouldn’t even be here
You’ve had your chance
now we’ve got the mandate
If you’ve changed your mind
I’m afraid it’s too late
We’re concerned
you’re a threat
You’re not integral
to the project
