Will there be 2 or just 1 single from each album??? does anyone know?

My guess is two singles each, since the first one has really good chances to receive massive airplay and maybe (just maybe) even hit the charts here or there...
Thus we might even get some more “new” tracks as B-sides of the singles, like remixes or unreleased live versions - that´s what I hope at least.

I think 2 or even 3 is likely.
They need good promotion for another GH album, in September first single hits radio stations, so in november they need to release another one so they got promotion not only through NOTP.
And as for third single - this one of course depends on how first two will behave...

Well, usually it´s three months between the singles, so with the release date set in October, the next one is due end of January or beginning of February.
Since they are planning to release the second compilation album somewhere in spring 2003, there´s no time left for a third single, not from the ballads album at least.
Also, I guess they don´t want all new songs out as singles to make people buy the album.

probably we should be very lucky if there are two new songs on the bloody greatest shit albums...

What I do expect: 2 new songs + 1 unreleased one on each album... let´s see what happens.

Definately not more than only 1 single. I don’t even think there will be 2 new songs on the album. I also think the album will only contain the studio versions of all the ballads that have been released as a single. The same thing will go for the uptempo compilation. Unfortunately.
But I hope both albums and singles will do well, so we can expect a real album in 2004.

As has always been the case, it depends in large part on how well the FIRST one does. If it does reasonably well... then yes, there will most likely be a second (if only to gain radio airplay... which helps to promote album sales).
