Cut "She's A Mystery" at the 4:47 mark. Send out to all the AC stations. Go on all the shows, Regis, View, Today, etc. Play the hell out of it. Get back on Ellen. Get some momentum on this bad boy...do it now Journey!

What they did after 4:47 is one of the most interesting things Post-Perry, though.

I love this ^^^ I connect w/him here ...my fav!!
That would be great, no matter how they do it!!

wow, I actually agree with this. The album version can be what it is, but hey, a radio edit for a single is totally fair.
For me the single is "Someone" or "Anything is Possible".
"Resonate" and "Ritual" are also cool pop rock.

The part at 4:47, where the band goes all Zeppelin, literally makes the song. Are you crazy? Without the rocked out ending, you pretty much have another version of Butterfly.

totally agree, that ending one of the best moments in any Journey song in a long time.

The part from 4:47 takes the song from being a terrible song like Butterfly to a song that is just filler. I would've loved to have gotten an entire song like what happens from 4:47 until the end.

Whatever dude. We may listen to the same band, but you're idea of Journey is def. not my idea of Journey. "She's a Mystery" smokes...it could easily fit on Evolution.

Totally agree.

The song is good without the ending but what an ending! I love it. I do wish, though, that they'd have made a completely new song out of it instead so, in that respect, I agree with jestor92.

The best moments ARE the fast part- but A/C radio won't go for that. It's too heavy for them.
That's why I say Someone's a better single.

She's A Mystery reminds me a lot like a lesser Precious Time.
The ending of the song is the best part.

An edited Anything is Possible is the single, a feel good Journey song that would have fit great on the ROR.

Reminded me of Skid Row's "Eileen" off Subhuman Race.
