Do you mean "royalties"?

If so, the answer will of course be yes.

As some of us have said before on this, and many other threads, it is entirely pointless discussing or arguing over release dates and schedules.

At some point soon they will be officially confirmed - until then it's a waste of time and the discussion just goes round and round and round ad infinitum.
Far be it from me to spoil people's pointless debates! :wink:

you old spoil-sport :wink:

Well, "Where the streets have no name" and "How can you expect to be taken seriously?" were a double A-side-single. Ok, "Where the streets have no name (I can't take my eyes off you)" wasn't on "Behaviour" ...
It will be a double A-side. "Numb" is not a song writen by PSB (like "Where the streets have no name (I can't take my eyes off you)"), so they also want to promote a psb song: "I'm with stupid" as the did in the 90's with "How can you expect to be taken seriously?". That's the idea, I think.
Hope that both songs will each have a video for it as it was with 'Where the streets have no name (I can't take my eyes off you)' and 'How can you expect to be taken seriously??'

For me very beautiful and touching song (at least the demo). Though doesn't fit the PSB style a bit... It's mood reminds me of Love is a catastrophe a little. Looking forward to hear it.

I couldn't say how but I think that some of the members of this forum have already got hold of Fundamental.

doubt very much that anyone here has heard it or had a copy, have you noticed that anyone who says they have heard it such ever gives any details apart from what is known, not even a line of lyrics
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

I doubt that very much....The copies that have been issued so far are only advanced copies to a very select few peeps.
You don't have to be beautiful, but it helps!

You can hear the demo of "Numb" sung by Diane Warren on the bbc2 show: the Diane Warren Story.
Trevor Horn: "from electronic to acoustic and back again, twice, with a 50-piece orchestra."
I'd love to hear this demo btw :wink:

Let them decide..
I'm of this way of thinking as well. Most fans only like four on the floor electronic dance tracks, and EMI are thinking of ways to appeal to a wider audience.

Erm, Always on my mind, Where the streets have no name (I can't take my eyes off you), GW, Somewhere...... :?

PSB have no problem paying royalties if they think they can get a hit cover version. And all them have gone top 10 too.
