Well, I think the few songs that SHOULD NOT be considered as single material are:

Undivided- One of the best songs on the album, but the fact that it's a tribute song to something so sensitive means that they should probably not profit from it in this way.

All About Loving You- Quite a nice song, but it's too much like Thank You For Loving Me and that didn't score so well as a single.

You Had Me From Hello- Too soft to be a single from a rock band.

Open All Night- See above.

I believe the songs I haven't mentioned all have some potential as a single, but which ones they will be is anyone's guess. Then again, Jon has mentioned something about Misunderstood, so I guess that may be one of them!

for singles, I'd like to see Right Side Of Wrong, Bounce and The Distance (because it's pretty different from their style)
Undivided is too hard
Joey is too mellow
Misunderstood has not good chorus
All about loving you, too intimist
Hook me up, too different
You had me from hello, too simple, needs more emphasis for a single
Open all night, great song but see YHMFH for details

I think Hook me up, Misunderstood and Joey would be 3 great choices for singles, cause they all have hitpotential (at least here in Europe the would be successful, I think).

sure they don`t realise Undivided as a single...it`s one of the best songs but if they should had realised the song..they had make it to the first single..couse they know that Undivided is much stronger then Everyday i think...if you know what i mean.
The Walrus's 1st rule of releasing singles: Never release the best song first.

Right now, I'm split over whether Undivided should be released or not, but right at this second, I'm slightly more in favour of it being released as a single rather than not......

for the Walrus : nobody can tell which song is better from another. it's music, not sport

Why do you think that? The first single is the lead single and will usually sell the best, it's also supposed to represent the album so it makes sense to put the strongest track out first.
