As far as I know, the singles for Europe are Have A Nice Day, Welcome To Wherever You Are and Who Says You Cant Go Home. I agree with releasing all 3 as singles but I think we need 2 more. Them being Bells Of Freedom and I Am.

Bells Of Freedom is one of the best ballads on the album and would do very well as a single.

I Am is also a very good song and would encourage more people to buy the album and when to do, they would fully enjoy it. I know I definitely like listening to songs I have heard before, so if they've heard all the singles released in the UK already, then including I Am would separate the recognisable songs out a bit. All the other released singles are in the top 5 after which you might start to lose interest. Hopefully, this would bring it back up.


Btw, this is my first post on these boards. Hello all

There won't be another best of. No worries. That was the reason why the band put out TLFR - to give the fans NEW VERSIONS of old hits. Like it or not. Jon said he won't realease a "greatest hits + 2 new songs"-type of album (like Crossroad) again.

That's a long time in BJ terms, think how quickly they normally release albums after each other. They only went in to record these days becauase of the success of Always
