The EMI's dilemma (third single)

#1 Post by Nickname »

According to some sources of Popjustice, EMI will choose one song between three tracks of Fundamental for being third single. These ones are (in no particular order):

- Numb
- Luna Park
- Integral

Integral absolutely.

Luna Park is my choice. Integral, great as it is, is already sounding a bit dated to my ears. and I still haven't gotten that used to Numb. letting it grow on me still. but it's been a while... OTOH, Diane Warren... hmm

Erm, not too sure Integral has that OOMPH to work as a single.

Best bet would be Numb, Psychological or Minimal.

If is has to be one of those three, I'd go for Integral. Luna Park is a decent choice though, while Numb would be a disaster.

Difficult choice... In fact, it's hard to compare the two songs: Luna Park is a slow song and Integral is high NRG! Love them both!

I dont have exactly the same info. Until last week, PSB had not yet decided which the third single will be.
Neil Tennant has a great voice, Chris Lowe has great silence.
