I can see the rationale behind releasing Numb as the third single, even though I dislike it. After I'm with stupid and Minimal the album has pretty much sold as much as it can sell with the strength of "typical PSB-singles", so why not try to push it further with a non-typical PSB single by a renowned hitmaker? Fans will buy it anyway, especially if the b-sides pass muster, and if somebody else gets it, that's just a bonus.

I get along (album version) is 6 minutes long and yet they managed to make 4 minutes long edit

I never understood how Numb could be considered as a single. Eldritch point is valid though it is sort of a non PSB single so it *potentially* could have an impact on non PSB fan...but hey..would Aerosmith fan buy Fundamental ???
Luna Park is a grower... but as playlists on radio stations are based on first impressions, I don't think it would be successfull.
Integral could be a good choice. Quite catchy for the masses
. I would prefer TSAGS though.
But let's face the facts...if there is an internationally released third single (remember London only released in Germany
) this would indicates a real iimprovement...and that would makes me happy.
