Anything Is Possible a fit for A/C radio?

Postby Don » Mon May 23, 2011 6:33 am

Listening to this song, it plays in te same vein as When I t Comes To Love by Foreigner. The solo at the end takes it the next level but as there were no qualms about editing COH or HF, I wouldn't be surprised if a neutered version of this or the track Someone gets released to radio when the US tour starts.

As much as a non-radio stance might sound cool, I would think it's MANAGEMENTwho probably gets to decide what is best here.

I think that song was recorded with hopes it would find itself on a soundtrack of a movie or something.

Human Feel was the song for that and Tron Leagcy was the movie for it.

If any song off this record would fit on an A/C format I'll be pissed. I had enough A/C with Trial By Fire to last me forever.

Just was listening to The Party's Over and this song (Anything Is Possible) came to mind for some reason. I'm getting the same vibe from both songs. I think it's the laid back guitar sound that I Imagine I'm hearing.

Do we not want Journey on the radio with any of these songs, or are we just fine with them not being on, just because we believe it's not possible in these times?

We want them on the radio but we don't want the songs edited so we have to see what fits.
This song is about the same length as DSB. A feel good song that that could actually benefit from being on Amazon as it could be downloaded by itself for those that aren't into the rest of what Eclipse has to offer.

Anything is possible could be the lead in song for "the biggest loser" next season.

I would say we want them on the radio, edited or not.

There might be a strategy here. I expect a couple more singles get released to coincide with this leg of the tour.

Most of the music buying public just ain't deep enough to worry about that. Is the song catchy? Yes.

You think the buying public will notice that the solo at the end of the song is rehashed from a previous journey song(if not a couple of them) :lol:

It's a very nice song, and is one of the ones that didn't grab me at first but has grown on me to where I like it a lot now. I think it would be great as a single, and fit AC. It's like a hard rock song as AC goes, but I think they would play it. The problem is, the song is a bit of a grower. If AC played it once, that would not be enough for people to love it, I'm afraid.
