Default Where Is Undivided?

Here we are, almost a year into Bounce, and the strongest song on the album has not been singled? I went to the Anaheim, CA, USA show on April 10, and witnessed a heart wrenching performance/video of Undivided. I think it would definitely sell, those grinding guitars in the introduction, and Jon's angry vocals, along with an emotional chorus. It is simple, just release Undivided, and the album will, excuse the pun, BOUNCE. All About Loving You was a predictable release, but the guys should have put that one off a little. I was surprised that they released Misunderstood so quickly after Everyday, I thought it was doing fine and they didn't need to release another single so soon.

on the record i wasn't really too impressed with undivided, one might even say i didn't like it. Live it was quite good, but i still don't think it has the material for a successful single.

Undivided is an great song, but the lyrics arent good for a single they'd better release Hook Me Up or Bounce.

Right, I'm not going to go into another 'next single should be..." topic, but I will say that Undivided is a great song and when I saw the guys perform it live it was fantastic, I really liked what they've done with the intro to the song.

Like someone has already said, this kind of topic has been done to death, but it is blatantly obvious had they released Hook me up, love me back to life, undivided and Bounce. they would now have surpassed their 100 million record sales goal.

But no, the powers that be deigned to release 3 extremely weak tracks, so they're struggling to reach their target. And Richie is still trying to blame it on internet piracy!

As much as i like undivided live, as a single it wouldnt be as good. If they were to release it then they'd have to change the lyrics!
