Favourite Lead Single From Alter Bridge?

[leadguitar_85]

Definitely Open Your Eyes. That song got me into Alter Bridge and there will always be too much nostalgia to change my mind on it.

This. I don't think it's the best first single they released, but I was such a huge Tremonti fan in the Creed days...I remember hearing a radio interview Myles did talking about how "Mark's solo will be the longest one to hit mainstream radio these days," and I was like...what? Solos? Then I heard the first song with Creed's rhythm section and Master Myles singing over the top, and I remember thinking...shit, this is awesome.

I really love Addicted To Pain, but had to go with Open Your Eyes, it's my all time favorite AB tune...

I'm really surprised by all of the Love for ATP. Yes, first song in years from the guys. Yes, it kicks some serious ass. But to be peoples favorite already after one day seems pretty cool.

I can see a lot of the people who chose it their favorite are probably new to AB or the hard core fans never saw their first single as epic as this one

[One Drew Remains]

AtP! Isolation is a close second. I don't remember being this excited for a record in the last 17 years!

IsoLAtion.

Although it is unfair to compare Addicted To Pain to these since it hasn't had time to sink in to the same level. Who knows,it could end up on top, though I think quality of its chorus compared to Isolation could hold it back.

agreed. I actually think the chorus is the weakest part of Addicted To Pain. Isolation has the definite edge in that aspect

agree^

I like how a lot of people around here used to complain that all of AB's choruses were too predictable because they all exploded and sounded huge. Now that ATP doesn't do that, everyone says it's the song's weakest part.

This is why I'm not voting. On first impressions, I would say Addicted to Pain, but that could change once the initial shock and excitement have worn off for me. Personally, it's way too early to decide.

It's ironic

Favorite lead singles by AB:

1. Open Your Eyes
2. Addicted To Pain (I love it, but OYE is the first AB tune I've heard, so #2 for ATP...)
3. Rise Today
4. Isolation

I thought this originally, but Timo set it up so you can always change your vote later. He's the man like that.

Oh smart guy! I'll stick my vote up for ATP then. =)

Maybe, but don't attribute that to me - I never complained about AB having good choruses.

Addicted To Pain, if this song was a woman i would marry her

Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with good [explosive], huge choruses.

I don't mind if it's a 2 line chorus, or a 12 line chorus. If I like it - I like it. End of story.

No, you wouldn't.

She'd have probably sold you out and betrayed you

I figured you weren't one of the ones who would say that, it just seemed ironic because that's been a semi-common complaint.

Oh, true that

[DivCruz]

I find it funny that ATP is already a favorite even before the official release
I went for Isolation but I may change it soon
