What STP song should have been a mainstream hit?
« on: May 29, 2008, 03:20:04 AM »
I got 2: Still Remains and Glide. Adhesive is still my favorite but it doesn't have the crossover potential of the other two.

I love Art School Girl but do you really think it had crossover, mainstream appeal? Thats why I left Adhesive off my list.

i think it does. it was originally intended for the radio. i see how you say that with adhesive but i think art school girl would have done well. pure opinion.

This is a tough one....I think there are a lot of songs that could've been hits.  Just a few: Crackerman, Still Remains, Silvergun Superman, Adhesive, 7CT, Heaven & Hotrods, Sex & Violence, Dumb Love, and Coma.

I think Too cool queenie had potential as a radio single.  Still remains as well.

Coma should have been the lead single for SLDD.  The record would have done much better IMO.

Art School Girl, absolutely not.  Would have bombed so hard on radio.

Still Remains would've been a big hit. I hear Unglued on the radio from time to time. That's a cool song too.

Still Remains, Lounge Fly, Sin, Silvergun Superman and Coma would have all been top ten hits if they were released as singles.

Heaven & Hot Rods! One of their best rockers. That easily could be a rock radio staple to this day.

I always thought that Seven Caged Tigers had that potential.  In fact, I've heard it played on XM at times.
