Default The Next Album - Which will be a hit? if any?

For the 'O' album i'd say Cannonball and The Blowers Daughter were the ones that reached mainstream the most.
Delicate and Volcano were there too but only a wee bit.

Just to see the general feeling for the next album.

and what constitutes mainstream??

the single to be released and get plenty of airplay on radios and a video be made for music channels.

I can't see any of them on the radio, but I think Fool would be the most likely (depending on how it is recorded).

Yes, mainstream would be anything that gets plently of airplay on radio and on TV (MTV, etc.)...And charts on sales lists, such as Billboard®.

From what I've heard of Damien's new stuff, none of it sounds as radio-friendly as anything on the radio unfriendly 'O.' But that's the whole reason why Damien left Juniper, is it not? Damien is content with songs unfit for radio, as long as he likes them.

(A few weeks ago, 'O' was #40 on Amazon.com's bestselling music list.)

I think BD2 would definitely be a hit.

I could also see at least Grey Room, WLAM and Accidental Babies all getting decent airplay

Out of the list provided I'd say Grey Room is the most likely.

I'd also say sand or lonely soldier. Hard to say though, I dont listen to the radio these days. Its mostly junk! =D

No Greg,

Still pure speculation at this point.
