| The All Access Music Group has just
posted a streaming version of "We Deal In Dreams" to their website (requires RealPlayer). If you're interested

posts new article about Live compilation |
| Live's record label, Geffen Records,
has posted a new article
about Live's upcoming CD/DVD compilation to their website. posted october 6th, 2004 |
| Live's new
single to be released onto Hot AC radio format |
| I have received word that "We
Deal In Dreams" will be officially "going for adds" on Hot AC (Adult
Contemporary) radio stations on October 18th. As of now, it doesn't look it will
be "going for adds" in either the Alternative or Rock formats (although
select stations in these formats may add it to their playlist anyways). Live's last
single, "Run Away" (duet with Shelby Lynne) was the first single in their
career that had only been released to just the Hot AC radio format. (It looks like
"We Deal In Dreams" will most likely follow the same path). posted october 4th, 2004 |
| New info on
"We Deal In Dreams" single |
| In Holland, "We Deal In Dreams"
will be released as a cd single on October 29th. According to Gertjan of Holland,
the new single was "world premiered" at the annual Subculture Of Live (official Dutch fanclub) meeting. He reported that
the new single is a recent recording that has "no falsetto or fancy stuff",
and contains a "slightly heavier chorus" than the old demo that is currently
in circulation. (If you haven't heard the old demo version yet, hop on over to the
Featured
MP3 Section to download
it now). [Thanks to Gertjan and Misha of The Subculture Of Live for contributing info towards this update].
