Ashwhisker Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) The fact that there is now a video for Not Alone first made me think it might be a single, but here is a picture that caught my eye (note the LP symbol as well as "download to donate" replaced with "Not Alone"): http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs030/1102926160779/img/15.jpg LINKIN PARK RELEASE VIDEO FOR "NOT ALONE" FROM "DOWNLOAD TO DONATE FOR HAITI" COMPILATION Linkin Park has released a special video for "Not Alone," the song they wrote and recorded specifically for DOWNLOAD TO DONATE FOR HAITI, a star-studded recovery effort launched to aid the nation of Haiti following the magnitude-7.0 earthquake that struck Port-au-Prince on January 12th. The video features studio performance footage interspersed with stark images of the Haitian devastation. Check out the video at http://music.myspace.com. This came from an email message from the Music For Relief mailing list. So what do you think? Just a promotional picture, or a cover for an upcoming Not Alone single?

wiiesel Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 What would be the sense of releasing a song you can get for free!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashwhisker Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 More publicity, easier access, more funding for MFR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiman Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) If it meant that proceeds went to Haiti then yeah, I would like a CD single. Edited February 12, 2010 by Aiman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabi Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 IMO "Not Alone" is a single in some way... it offen plays on KROQ, now it's a music video for the song.. but I don't think this would be a type of single like New Divide, with so commerciality and so on.. but I'd like to hear Not Alone on radio.. love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just go off of video/radio play, Points of Authority, FRGT/10, and Lying From You would technically be classified as singles, but none of them were. It might happen, it might not. Personally, I don't think it will, especially with the remake of We Are the World being a huge charity single for Haiti now, but I could be wrong.

Do you think that KROQ is going to play We Are the World? I'd call Not Alone just a promo single, airplay only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotrix Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Not Alone is not considered a "single" per se ... it isn't available in a physical format, it hasn't been released commercially and promotional singles for radio stations have not been pressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePretender Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 The online translation is worthless, so i have no idea what that said. It says something like the quake is over, but the consequences not. They further talk about the album, the information we already know. I can't translate it though, German isn't my native language.
