This was somewhat released as the last single. There wasn't much push behind it, but there's a video. Love this track.

Totally agree on Beyonce

I believe Revelry was the 3rd single. It certainly was here.

I would like to add Rihanna's "Breaking Dishes" which should have taken either Shut Up and Drive or Rehab's place as a single.

I still don't understand why "Breakin' Dishes" wasn't ever released. Blasphemy!

Songs that should be released as singles:
Kid Cudi, "Sky Might Fall" and "Heart of a Lion"
Whitney Houston, "Call You Tonight," "Salute," and "I Got You"
Jay-Z, "Already Home," "Off That"
Beyonce, "Radio," "Smash into You" (even though she should just move on from this album)
Maxwell, "Help Somebody" (should be the closer of BLACK, leading up into SUMMERS')

I'm gonna have to second both of these. I've often wondered why these weren't singles. "Porn Star" is probably my favorite track from Paper Trail.

Red Face "Big Branch" is not on my copy of KALA. Is there another edition? Maybe where you are?
