After the SNL performance, one would assume it will be Gold on the Ceiling. Doesn't matter to me, but I hope not. I'ts not my favorite (as mentioned earlier). I'm doing a full-blown cover of Sister, and I like about 3-4 other songs better than it.

Strange Times

Run Right Back would have made a good single if they hadn't already made it the B side of the first one. Then again, that hasn't stopped other bands in the past.

A long record cycle -- or at least one longer than that for "Brothers" -- is exactly what Kaplan and the label team are planning: at least three legs of the "El Camino" arena tour (with the possibility of additional dates in 2013) and servicing three to four singles, the second one likely being "Gold on the Ceiling." Already confirmed are headlining slots at major U.S. and European festivals this summer, and next on the to-do list is creating stronger inroads internationally.

What the hell is a single anyway?? Back in the day, it used to be something cool, with a B-side that wasn't on the album - a reason to buy. But in the digital world - what's the point? We HAVE all the songs already!!

And Phil Spector said: albums are 'two hits and ten pieces of junk'.

As far as I know, all BK-singles have been released as records... Some of the ones considered "singles" are in fact promos though.

And if you check them out there are tons of unreleased stuff on them.

Regarding the question in the thread... I believe it's gonna be "gold on the ceiling"...
