I cant tell which would be the most radio-friendly. Probably Beauty School or Risk. But I pick Prince anyways, because it's basically my favorite. Amongst others.

I vote Prince, but CMND/CTRL would make for the most interesting choice.

I have to say I really hope they don't pick Sextape. I don't like it. It's very uninteresting to me, and the lyrics feel like "Cherry Waves" throwaways.

This is true. Wen I read the reviews I thought Beauty School or Sextape would be my favorite. Then wen I heard it I preferred Sextape, but now I prefer Beauty School. I suppose either one would make for a good single concerning mainstream and whatnot, but...eh. I dont care about that. I dont suppose they do all that much, or they'd make more radio-ish music.

Sextape would do good but I don't think it represents the band and will confuse people when they hear their other shit.

sextape is the only mediocre song on the album, also too corny. beauty school all the way, maybe shortened with the middle part cut out.

I think Beauty School is MY least favorite. THATS WEIRD AMIRITE

but then its too late cause they already took a change and bought the cd muahahahaha.success!

976 evil has, like bergerac said - "left-field notes". it takes unexpected turns in the melodies and chords, thats not the typical single. a single should in thelabel eyes be catchy and instant, no fuzz, and not too heavy.

so i think they will choose sextape or beauty school. weaker tracks of the album but radio friendly

i vote sextape because its a catchy radio single. i wouldnt want them to put out the very best songs because everything else might disappoint so no beauty school...no 976...no royal....

give em sextape...get those people who may not necessarily listen to give the deftones a try.

deftones86

I based my vote on what i would like to be a single or see a video for. And that song is Royal. But if we are talkin about radio play and record sells then Sextape or Beauty School for sure.

I think I'd vote Prince. It's time for the deftones to put out a classic deftones-sound song. We haven't seen anything like that since ummm..white pony? Don't get me wrong, I LOVE minerva, and I do consider hole in the earth an important and cool song...but those aren't songs that matches the 'tones sound we all fell in love in the first place. Oh, and I drastically disagree with the other single choices since then, as much as many people on the board do (hexagram, bloody cape, mein...I wouldn't have ever go into deftones if that's what I had known them for)

Sorry for the grammar, by the way. I know there's some stuff wrong in the last sentences.

I agree. First Deftones song I heard and liked was Beware, and it was because I saw the lyrics written and wanted to know if the song was actually good. A lot of their more popular songs, the ones that were singles, I'd heard some of, and just skipped them.
