Default Future singles off 9??

Which songs do you reckon could be potential forthcoming singles off 9??

I'm thinking Dogs. Seems to be very radio friendly... I think it would be a great 3rd single... and Elephant after that maybe??? The only other ones I can see as potential singles are Grey room and Accidental babies...

What do you think?

If it can't be the Singing Bowl for some odd reason I vote Coconut Skins.

never doubt the power of the Tibetian Singing Bowl, or it will go on for 15 minutes and make you think you have hearing problems the first time you hear it.

me: WHAT THE HELL IS THAT RINGING?

I'd be quite surprised and a bit disappointed if the next one isn't either Accidental Babies or Elephant.

i can't imagine accidental babies or elephant being played on the radio...

for me, it's more likely to be Dogs, The Animals Were Gone or Coconut Skins

If "The Blowers Daughter" could become a massive hit, so can "babies" and "fant"
Whether it'd get airplay or not.
Was "blower" played on radio much?

It does seem like a logical order... I would have always thought that The Animans Were Gone was an obvious choice.

Well, personally, i think Dogs. Also, it would be THE best summer song, beating Coconut Skins in my opinion. But i just think people will like it generally.

I thought Wikipedia was zero reliable... I thought anyone could go there and type whatever they wanted to... or am I mixing it with another site???

I admit I never thought about Animals as a possible single... same for Coconuts... IMO these are greats songs but lack the Wow factor of songs like Elephant... That's why I think Elephant would be a better single... It's a 10 out of 10 song... Coconuts, Dogs or Animals are 9 out of 10 songs...

What about Grey Room??? I think it would be great too, it's one of these songs that starts quiet and keeps growing and growing...

I couldnt imagine Dogs on the radio. Either Grey room or Accidental Babies. that would be amazing. however, Rat Within the Grain is pretty catchy and fun to listen to. that would be awesome, even though its not on 9.

Coconut skins is very commercially friendly. It's such an upbeat song that it'd do well

I think someone around he mentioned that they do play Dogs on the (irish?) radio, instead of the actual single 9 crimes.

Paul Oakenfold should do a re-mix conjoining "Tibetan Singing Bowl" with "Me, My Yoke, and I"...kinda in the vein of George Martin's re-mixes of the Beatles on "Love"
