If there will be one more single it can't be other than Schlager. It screams for a Christmas EP around november!

Perfect time for "Why am I dancing" and "Feel" like previous singles.TeCHno PoP wrote: Wed 12 Jun 2024, 7:55 pm If there will be one more single it can't be other than Schlager. It screams for a Christmas EP around november!
First single: "Loneliness" (February)
Second single: "Dancing Star" (April)
Third single: "A New Bohemia" (June)
Fourth single: "Why am I dancing" (August)
Fifth single: "Feel" (October)
Sixth single: "The schlager hit parade" (December)
A rework in "Why am I dancing?" and "The schlager hit parade" for the singles versions would be perfect.

I really don't understand why WAID? is so popular. It has no chorus, its lyrics are weak. A poor imitation of more classic PSB anthems.

From my point of view and many others "Why am I dancing?" has a stronger melody and a really good hook that makes it better. "The schlager hit parade" has a very lazy and simple melody like the style of songs called "schlager".daveid wrote: Sun 09 Jun 2024, 9:26 pm I think Why am I dancing is a lyrically weak rip-off of earlier songs. I would go with Schlager as it's vaguely anthemic sounding. Feel is my second choice.
"Feel" is another good option too.

That is the whole point. It’s a song about schlager, in the style of schlager.Nickname wrote: Thu 13 Jun 2024, 12:26 pm"The schlager hit parade" has a very lazy and simple melody like the style of songs called "schlager".

The same for me, it's a weak parody of another song. Could be much much better.daveid wrote: Thu 13 Jun 2024, 10:40 am I really don't understand why WAID? is so popular. It has no chorus, its lyrics are weak. A poor imitation of more classic PSB anthems.

Feel … it still sounds fresh and I’ve played this one a lot since release.
I would think a PSB extended mix of this could be insanely good

It's the poor love child of Go West and Bourgeois.
Why am I going West to construct a bourgeois love dance?

Double A side release with WAID and Bullet would be lovely.
Double CD release with a nice outer wallet to house both cds, and each cd to contain an extended mix, remix, and one spanking brand new track !
I know, I'm living in Dreamland !

Marketing is a bourgeois construct. All it takes is for someone to say, "let's do it." It's not as if PSB are stroking the algorithm for number one hit optimisation, so why not have fun with the product?
Look at my hopes, look at my dreams...
Re: Which song do you think that should be fourth single?
I agree with this but it is highly unlikely to happen. Hope to have a bit of vinyl but that seems to be dead for them now.Too Many Shadows wrote: Sat 15 Jun 2024, 11:44 amMarketing is a bourgeois construct.

Bohemia is the one that deserves vinyl.
The artwork, harking back to vinyl-age, and the clear importance to them.
