Maybe It was a rotten title. Perhaps...Everything and Anything would have been better.

Default 4 left out songs of HAND

Nothing was one of the 4 songs that were changed prior to the release of HAND.
Does anyone know the 3 other songs? Are they available somewhere?

I think the other 3 song were 'Unbreakable' .. 'Dirty Little Secret' and 'These Open Arms.'

They will be available on torrent sites.

It is also a similar sounding song to 'I am' but he said that it was just he could n't relate to the lyrics - I told him I thought it was a great track of which he replied - ' I make mistakes maybe - I'm not an A n R guy and I wanted to not put 'Prayer' on Slippery ....
Hope this helps.

My take on it is it means a "band/ artist is nothing without their fans or customers"...so to speak. And if you think about it....if you don't have fans who BUY the music and go to the shows....then...basically you don't have an audience and therefore.....well...you get it.

Or...maybe a Man is Nothing without a Woman? I suppose you could "read into it" a variety of ways.
