Krafty is a single so its not on here Jetstream is going to be a single in the summertime.
WFTSC would be a popular choice to promote the album. IMHO

It would be a crime to ignore the title track...
BTW, anyone can actually remember any artist that released the best track of the album as a THIRD single?

Pet Shop boys puts out 3 or 4 singles per album. Wonder why they have almost 40 singles and 20 top 10 singles and 35 top 20 singles in the UK.
Obviously this album is solid enough to have 5 singles.
And I won't push my lucky by saying I Told You So could be a light summer hit if pushed wisely.
I believe WFTSC, and GIAUE could be single #3 and #4, and I'd put Turn as Single #5...
If they don't, then WFTSC should include remixes of GIAUE (like 60MAH/SLY)
And ask the Chemical Brothers to remix it.

It would depend what is on the charts, not by your predictions. Like WFTSC maybe 3 but if the charts have shitty songs, they maybe lucky with number one. But if the songs are good on the charts thats better, it might struggle top ten.
Guilt is a useless emotion. It would win over the dance floors and that seems to be the song that is dragging in new listeners
Who's Joe is so powerful and sophisticated at the same time, but it's too suble and expansive to be radio friendly. Pity. But that would be my choice.

That is exactly it. However, if people are drawn to bother getting the album they will see it's loaded with the goods

Then I would suggest you "Get Ready" 
Guilt ... YEAH RIGHT! Last thing I want to see is a bunch of 14 year old kids dancing to it in the clubs. 
It's a competition between the title track and "guilt" for me.. as it seems to be for most of us.
I suggest they put the title track first and then "guilt" as a surprise fourth single at the end of the summer.. with some extra b-side track on it 
I've been thinking if they would have the energy to put out (maybe late 2005) some off-the-record stuff like "Here to Stay" and their 80's hits was.. those news would make my downstairs pretty hard

WFTSC will be the third single.
MNAD & Who's Joe? would have been very good singles

I think '# 3' means Nic thinks it will be the third single released, rather than it will reach number 3 in the charts. Its unlikely any other singles will hit the Top 10. NOs fanbase aint really the single buying age group and now we've all got the album, well many won't by the singles for a b-side or a remix.
Would agree with WFTSC as most likely next choice and think HNWYD could be a surprise contender for a 4th choice if they decide to release more.

SHUT UP YOU GIRL!!! :P
I thought WFTSC was already selected for the third single?.The worry is seeing as its over 5 minutes long they will inevitably do an edit of it for Radio and i just can`t see how the song could possibly be edited without brutally destroying it:(
Even though I'm liking more and more of the album, I think GIAUE would be a good single. Plenty of remixes! But, WFTSC seems to be the third single and I'm fine with that, too. I just wish they released that as their first and put Krafty as their 2nd forgetting Jetstream altogether.
Hint... going on a limb here, but I already suggested it...
WFTSC as a single with remixes of Guilt as the b-side, release Guilt as a DJ 12" Promo like they did with Someone Like You.
That would please everybody.
Unless there is a miracle, you won't see a 4th single.. although Republic had one, so who knows...
