I've heard loads of negative press about this one before i heard the album today, but I really love it. Think its a really nice song and I dont think it would make a bad single. Ok so its not a typically psb song, and they didnt write it, but that doesnt make it bad!

It will be rather miss than hit.

Numb is not very psb, but it's a very beautiful track, with a beautiful music
i think it sounds great and the people who don't know psb, could easily think that it is a nice song, so i think it has a hit potential
we cannot know the future, so it is impossible to really say that a song will be hit or not
however,
i think that integral would be a great single and i would like to see it release after numb.

Personally, I think its an OK song. I think (although I don't necessarily agree with this) it will be a single. Why use a song written by someone else unless its going to be a single? I'm sure they are quite capable of writing one extra track for the album or just have 11 tracks.

I don't think Neil's voice goes well with this song, it wasn't written with his voice in mind.
I rule. You don't.

You can say that about all the covers they've done then!

i think even an autumn release wouldn't be too late because people radio stations would pick it up immediately after all the momentum it's gained. and many people will recognize it immediately. even if they will be associating a bad memory but that's why we all listen to miserable songs: to soothe the pain.

What cover versions have PSB done that were not released as singles? :wink:
