Top 10 STP Songs That Weren't Singles
« on: June 19, 2010, 07:45:34 PM »
Top Ten:
 
Wicked Garden: Never a single! Only a radio promo
Dead and Bloated: Wasn't officially a single but it gets a lot of radio airplay anyway
Wonderful: Should have been a single. Too bad the album wasn't heavily supported by the record label.
Atlanta: I love this song
Songs for Sleeping: Great poppy song
Hello It's Late: Another great pop tune
Army Ants: awesome psychadelic rocker
Seven Caged Tigers: The band continues to explore new territory
Coma: Great rocker
Lounge Fly: A Good Trippy One
 
Honorable Mentions:
 
Too Cool Queenie
Adhesive
Kitchenwear and Candybards
 
New Album:
 
We only know two of the singles so here are my favs that might not be singles. I'm pretty sure Cinnamon will be a single so I didn't include it.
 
Hichory Dichotomy: One of my favs from the new album. It may or may not make it as a fourth single
Huckleyberry Crumble: Another great one.
Fast As I Can: Probably won't be a single but it's good nonetheless!

I'm looking for a new meditation, still looking for a new way to fly. Don't want any plastic validation, not looking for a new way to die.

Wow, I can't believe nobody mentioned Coma. For sure I thought that'd be on most lists. Maybe it's just me. I'll just pick 2 from each record.

Piece of Pie
Crackerman
Still Remains
Silvergun Superman
And So I Know
Adhesive
Atlanta
Glide
Coma
Hello It's Late

Off the new album 2 tunes that I would guess would not be chosen for singles but are great nonetheless:
Maver
First Kiss On Mars
STP: 07.31.00 | 08.04.01 | 10.24.01 | 04.23.02 | 10.11.02 | 05.31.08 | 09.05.10
SW: 11.30.11 | 03.12.13 | 08.29.14 | 03.10.15

Not in any specific order...and I should mention that I don't necessarily think all of these songs would've been huge singles, but still could have been singles none the less:

Dead & Bloated
Crackerman
Still Remains
Heaven & Hot Rods
Coma
Wonderful

That's all I can really think of right now...it's hard for me to pick songs from past albums and try to think of which ones would be singles...but the ones I listed are ones I can definitely say would've been good singles. Didn't include the new album since more singles will come...but FAST AS I CAN NEEDS TO BE ONE OF THEM!!! ATLANTIC RECORDS, ARE YOU READING THIS?!?!
My STP shows: 8/10/2008, 7/19/2009, 10/10/2009, 5/22/2010, 4/26/2011, 4/24/2015   Weiland solo: 1/29/2009, 11/29/2012, 3/13/2015    VR: 8/5/2007

This thread isn't a "What songs should have/could have been singles" thread, it's about what songs that were not singles are your favorites.

A song doesn't need to be a single to be good.

I've been eyeballing this thread for a while, but knew it would be an insanely tough task. So I blew it off. Well now I'm bored, so I guess I'll give it a shot ;)


In order of release, not by preference. I couldn't rank them.

1. Sin
2. Still Remains
3. Kitchenware & Candybars
4. Silvergun Superman
5. Pruno
6. I Got You
7. Atlanta
8. No Way Out
9. Bi-Polar Bear
10. Fast as I Can (Doubt itll be one, but love it)


Honorable Mention:

Piece of Pie
Crackerman
Dead and Bloated
Meatplow
Heaven & Hotrods
Learning to Drive (No.4 Outtake. Didn't even make it on the record, but still love it)
Glide
Coma

I've realized I used to love STP for their hits, but now I can't get enough of their less popular stuff :) I find myself listening to their non-singles at probably a 5:1 ratio of their singles at minimum these days!

Favorite STP songs at the moment: Hazey Daze, Fast as I Can, I Got You, Pruno

In no particular order...

  • Naked Sunday
  • Wicked Garden
  • Ride the Cliché
  • Dead & Bloated
  • Pop Love's Suicide
  • Crackerman (tend to prefer it live, though)
  • Coma
  • Long Way Home (quickly grew on me)
  • Seven Caged Tigers
  • Press Play (so short and simple, yet so soothing, as well)
Water summons wind...wind makes fire dance...

Wonderful: Should have been a single. Too bad the album wasn't heavily supported by the record label.

I saw them in a private acoustic show on New Year's Eve 2002, and before they played Wonderful, Scott said it was going to be the next single. So that was the plan, but for whatever reason (low sales of SLDD), it never happened. Shame; I think it would've done at least as well as Sour Girl back then.

By the way, here are my non-single favorites:

1. Silvergun Superman
2. Wonderful
3. Seven Caged Tigers
4. Unglued
5. Piece of Pie
6. And So I Know
7. Atlanta
8. Lounge Fly
9. Still Remains
10. Regeneration

I didn't exactly approach the list as the top 10 non-singles that could've been singles...I realize that songs like And So I Know wouldn't do well on radio.
STP: 07.31.00 | 08.04.01 | 10.24.01 | 04.23.02 | 10.11.02 | 05.31.08 | 09.05.10
SW: 11.30.11 | 03.12.13 | 08.29.14 | 03.10.15
VR: 05.28.04 | 05.18.07 || AoA: 02.01.07
CheSTP: 09.06.13 | 04.25.15 | 09.20.15 || JeffTP: 07.28.18 | 09.15.19
