I voted for Locked, not because I don't love the song, just because I don't ever think of it as the lead single off FC

Voted for Blow this round. I love it, and I know it's a CanRock classic and everything. But those other songs are just so damn good.

what an amazing time that must have been!!! i mean, to go from the sound of the Road Apples album. and then introducing the "new direction" with a single like LOCKED! That song is such an incredible turn into uncharted territory.

this poll should be considered not for the song itself. but the way it reflects as a representative and an introduction to the new album.

Locked it think can possibly beat Grace by that aspect. possibly. but not fully, nor completely

I think that's sort of what I'm saying - even though we arrived at different results for voting in this round. I arrived at the Hip late in the DFN / early TATHH period and at that time I never would have guessed Locked was the first single from this album - for the exact reason you suggested. But to your point I believe the song to be a better lead single than Grace, just that I have never associated Locked as a lead single the way I have with Poets or In View or ABAC,

I think I said earlier that Poets is my horse in this one!
