I have been swamped lately and only listened to FOTF now. I'm really enjoying it 2 listens in and I hope the rest of the album is in a similar direction. Not what I was expected from BDI2 at all good to have you back. Hello, hello, hello.. |

Obviously its not something i listen too but i think so yes, most shows.
I think he was going to play Flick of The Finger on the 15th but due to the US radio play he played it last monday.
Would have thought the first official single will be played sometime closer to the album like The Roller was.

Maybe it just won't be the hottest record. No big deal really.

So basically the "new single on Zane Lowe Monday" was rubbish and flick of the finger was always destined to be the first single and we're disappointed because it shouldn't be a single ; it's a perfect album opener but not worthy of lead single.
This is disappointing.
I expected a great lead single to spark commercial interest in the album; as flick of the finger won't do that I'm afraid. Despite the fact it's a great song.

Its been said repeatedly that its not the single so I don't think we can be sure of anything right now. There's nothing to suggest Zane won't have a new tune on his show yet. Flick Of The Finger has actually created more buzz than I would have thought. There has been a lot of positivity about it. |

I still don't think FOTF is a single thought with XFM, Lamacq and Zane Lowe all saying it isnt. Its the kind of thing they know, newspapers etc will just say its a single as they've not been fully informed.

But we've not heard of any other song and its close to Monday... We've been unlocking stems for FOTF.... And then we unlock "artwork" for it.
All the signs point to it being the main promo song.

All the signs point to it being the main promo song. Not quite. We also have XFM and Zane Lowe saying it wasn't the single, the official site has never refered to it as a single, and the promo vid is quite evidently not the sort of video you'd expect for a first single. |

It's definitely not the single, they haven't referred to it once as the new single, just 'our new track' plus all the DJ's hae confirmed it isn't the lead single. Very strange we haven't heard anything yet though on what is the single.

This is beyond a joke.
As any regulars on the forum will know, Flick Of The Finger IS NOT THE SINGLE.
It has been said by several people who have actually heard the single and who are in the music industry that Flick Of The Finger is a different track to the one which will be played on Monday.
Let that be an end of it.
Come Monday, we'll see.

Only NME have said we will get a a single on Monday, the rest saying FOTF is to be unveiled on Monday With the Tour announcement on Monday now, i can't see them playing the single aswell.
I do hope i have to eat my words though!!

Single or no single ; it has become the main promo track.
If it ; or nothing ; is played on Radio 1 on Monday then this promo build up will have been worse than BTL/DGSS

Unless you have heard the single which I'm pretty sure you haven't. No offense but you seem to be one of those who is determined to be down on them whatever they do. |

I love them. I just want a great lead single to get people talking. A minute brass intro... Some vocals.... And a minute long speech isn't going to get people talking. I love the song but its clearly meant to be in the context of an album. We need a great tune - which we all know will be on the album - I'm just scared that they're not gonna give us that on Monday  |
