I seriously doubt it and trust me, my woman's intuition has never betrayed me. Just in case it happens, I'm afraid there's a big difference between what I would like them to release (read: Turn) and (since they don't give a flying fook about what I think about this all) what they would probably release (you have no fooking idea just how much it pains me to say it) - Guilt is a useless emotion.
Babe honey, I share the same desire of Turn being the next single and the same fear of Guilt being it instead.
Actually I think that Turn should have been the third single in lieu of WTF.
I reckon this will be a tie between TURN and GUILT.
I'm in the GUILT camp (as if you didn't know).
MORNING, NIGHT AND DAY, not TURN, is the best rock stylee track on WFTSC track in my opinion.
Who's Joe has single potential as well. An edit with the intro cut down.
It would be Working Overtime if Hooky got to decide! (see the interview snippet on the lyrics etc. page) Obviously not going to happen though.
Its a close call as there are many potential singles that could be released. I think it would have to be a guitar driven track (so that rules out a few). "Turn" wouldnt do much as a single. Its a great song though. "Hey Joe" is great too but wouldnt make top 30. "Hey Now" is far more commercial and catchy and could get top ten. So I'd have to go for that one.
Guilt in the US, Turn in the UK
As simple as that.
But of course there won't be a 4th single and we all know it. I'd love to have remixes of Guilt on the WFTSC single..
They could release it as a DJ promo like they did for Someone Like You... ![]()
Guilt is the most obvious single off the album. Turn is equally good if not better, but doesn't conform to today's ridiculously narrow playlist criteria.
I think it should be Working Overtime!!!
It would convert new fans and show the punks who can really rock. And a live version of Rock the Shack should be the B-side. And maybe a cover of Sister ray live too.

4th single you mean...
If they promote it properly (i.e. more of the JET style promo + THE COMPANY ASKING RADIO STATIONS AND MUSIC CHANNELS TO PLAY IT!) theres no reason not to release the 4th...
I think "Turn" is crying for a single release! However, I actually voted for "Morning Night And Day" because it's pretty much tied with "Turn" as my 2nd favorite from the album.
Since there's such a close call between "Turn" and "Guilt" as the next single, how about a double A-side release in the UK, "Guilt Is A Useless Emotion"/"Turn".
I really think this album has a lot of potential singles. It's a shame they can't grab the massive airplay to secure more singles. ![]()
Guilt.
This song is begging to be remixed. Don't get me wrong, I love Turn, even slightly more than GIAUE, but for purposes of a singles release, I feel that Guilt would be a better choice.
In fact, Guilt should've been the 2nd single! Nevermind that Jay Eee Tee song! ![]()
Guilt would work much better on the dancefloors.
Hey Now would be good for Radio 2 audiences.
I'd be happy with either GUILT or TURN, I think GUILT has good re-mix potential and would probably do better than TURN. ![]()

Why do we all know it? If Guilt isn't coming out as a single, how come loads of people seem to be working on remixes of it right now??

Has to be "Turn" for me as it just has that classic New order sound.
I do love Dracula's Castle but i think they could have made the title a bit better ?Very good catchy song though.![]()
Ho Ho Stop this fucking marketing... 3 singles is enough. There is no other tracks good enough on this formated album. If the band has kept a lot of good materials from the wftsc's sessions why not to release it on several singles only. back to the early years ... Drop by drop
12 inch by 12 inch... That's was their originality... before
And Mr Marketers, after you can always release a beautifful "best of"...
I would have gone:
- WFTSC
- Guilt
- Turn
- *Krafty
(*Contingent upon how things went with the other three.)
Well, Turn is undoubtedly one of the album's highlight, a brilliant song and all, but it's ok for me if it stays a (yet) classic album track (just like the wonderful Dream Attack on Technique). On the other side, since all the babble than ran 'bout the pre-release period of WFTSC album,on how our Lads are feelin' uppy and all, i thought it would be nice to see how an already danceful base tune would turn if wisely remixed... Might end with yet another killer dance single... Let's see...
