Whatever happens, it will all end in tears. Either Integral isn't released as a single, which means some people on here will be forever whining about the potential number one hit that never was; or it will be released, but in a remixed format (to coincide with the verison on Disco 4) that divides the forum and fans alike, and peaks at #27. At which point, the general consensus on here will be "if only they'd released the original version"...

It's indeed the most logical way of thinking. But, as you might remember, Disco 3 didn't exactly make a massive chart impact, with its #36 peak.

I don't think they are released with the intention of selling a lot of copies. I think the Disco's are simply a bonus for the fans.

Agree completely Dave.

HMV wouldn't have made it up - am checking with a contact at the record co today.

Well I won't be moaning about it getting a single mix because I've always said that's what it needs.

I like that poll that was created here, I think that Disco 4 should be like Disco 3 with half new songs and half remixes. Good idea!

If "Integral" will be a single, it will probably be in a (slightly) remixed version, since that particular version should promote Disco 4, which will probably not contain the original album version. I compare this to Flamboyant, which hit #12 in 2004. A similar OR better result for Integral must certainly be possible. You're being too negative when you say it will peak at #27.

I was being tongue-in-cheek about the chart position. A new version of Integral would probably sit comfortably in the top 15. Ultimately I don't think there will be a single to precede Disco 4 (assuming it is happening) anyway.

If they will release Integral as single for sure it will arrive in top20 and maybe top10 (I'm with stupid arrived in top10, so why not Integral?). For the album for me it will arrive in top30
