And your point is? If WE want it, we make it happen. I say so. 1. The point is that Running will never be a single. 2. Good luck with that. I am not going to argue with anyone that Runnin could/should be a pop single, but I can't help but wonder how a non-pop song could be successful on the Top-40 charts. If that were always true, then how do you explain "We Are Young" by Fun? I think that Runnin and We are Young have a lot of similarities (catchy/non-traditional verses and grand power ballad chorus). Luckily there is no shortage other viable single candidates on Trespassing.

tl;dr ahead!
Ok. Now that I've had a chance to immerse myself in Trespassing and totally digest everything...I have a confession to make. Here goes:
I don't like Underneath. /o\ I also don't really like Chokehold. I'm so sorry. But I LOVE trespassing, cuckoo, shady, pop that lock, naked love (even though it sounds like bubble gum boy band) running, OOL (omigosh I love this so much more than I thought I would) & NCOE. And I LIKE broken english, nirvana (and to a lesser extent ) take back and BTIKM (sounds so much better surrounded by other album tracks).
So it's all good. Shady may just be my favorite song of all time, ever, and that's saying something!!!
My preferred playlist (and the order I like to listen to my faves) is as follows:
Trespassing (gotta start with a bang!) Cuckoo ( get your party on) Kicking in ( get you drink on) Pop that lock (get you dance on) Shady (get your...ummm, groove on. Heh) Naked love (back to something more innocent) NCOE ( good segue into the deeper end) Broken English (slowing it down a bit) Running ( deep and I love the lyrics so much) OOL (so heartwrenching and simple and beautiful) Nirvana (dreamy and hopeful)
And repeat!

OK, I have a question. I opened up an itunes account several months ago and the only thing I've bought was the BTIKM video. I thought me buying 10 deluxe hard C Ds would be sufficient for this first week's sales, but since Adam asked, thought I'd buy the album from itunes. Why are the digital albums so expensive? You'd think they would be cheaper than the actual CDs. What am I missing? I mean $19.99 for the deluxe and $14.99 for regular. I understand individual songs being more expensive, but what's the incentive to buying the whole album...there is no price break. Do most people pay extra just for the convenience of loading songs on their various devices? I'm just curious.
