Call My Name will be a great single. I just don't think that having it as the second single is going to do the album any favors. It either needs to be 3rd, after A Million Days (or as a double A-side with that song).


pop/rock radio isn't going to wait around for a third single to jump on the comeback bandwagon. by the time a pop single is released, they will have moved on.

I'm listening to CMN at this moment. What an amazing song - if there ever was anything in his post-80s ouput that is definite Grammy-winning material this is it. Of course, my concept of what kind of stuff is winning the Grammies these days might be a bit outdated, but give this old hack a break.

Actually, this album contains a lot good potential single choices. But - for some reason - I've started to think "A Million Days" might not be afterall a good choice for a single at all. The production style wouldn't fit any radio format, it's too loose to fill such a function.


Yup, you nailed it. We old hacks think alike lol

I think it is the right single, You have to remember all the other songs ( C, girl, M, Days are great) , Thats what Us die hard fans want to hear, There going after new fans.

, I think Call my name will do very well adding new listeners and the others to follow and grow on people. Most people aren't used to the sound of C, girl and Millio days. We are but not todays listeners

CMN is a great choice, it's the first song that i would push the volume up on when the album first came out...

....but after seeing P at State College i have this sneaking suspicion that Illusion etc. will be the next single and THEN CMN....and based on the crowd's reaction to Illusion, it should do quite well. da house was jamming!
