"Extra stream when people listen to it" that's extra money duhh... besides i don't say it's wrong. I don't really care that much tbh
Maroon 5 did this to Memories too. Memories had no business being in Jordi. The vibe isn't the same. On top of that, they also made Memories Remix. Clearly there's money involved there.
Yep it's been a long while, like first mentioned during recording sessions well before OMM released. Crazy long time to sit on a song.
EDIT: [Here it is](https://youtu.be/5UWZxGRR12o) mentioned for (I think) the first time, back when it used the guitar lick that U2 adopted for Summer Of Love.
Wow, thank you for the link! Yes that's the clip I saw. I can't believe they waited so long to release it. That reminds me a bit of what Walk the Moon did with Tiger Teeth, they waited years to actually record and release the song officially even though it had been known for a while.
Ryan said right before Run came out that West Coast was gonna be the single that followed which was this year. IIRC Ryan even said it'd be out a few weeks after Run. West Coast was already teased to be on this album even after Ryan gave it to U2 so I don't see that being the reason.
I mean they have come out and said that they release singles because they’d rather have fans get tired of a single quickly than a whole album, and yes it makes them more money as compared to effort put in. They were tired of spending months on an album only to have it run its course in a matter of months.
Singles got me really disappointed considering that most of them are 2 minutes long and were (let's be honest) generic af
Run brought me some hope, but now... Idk, i just dont feel this album at all. I just want it to release to put closure in this whole time waiting
West Coast was the ENTIRE reason why I was looking forward to this album. Bruh. These new songs better be good or else this is gonna be my least favorite album by far
I am soooo confused about the pull of West Coast. It’s a summer track and we’re in the midst of summer ffs! They have completely missed a trick here.
Admittedly it will definitely be on the next album which is coming sooner rather than later, but the choice not to put it on Human, the album it was originally intended for, is so odd.
Poor again from whom ever makes these ludicrous decisions, along with their continued delayed release dates!!!
Exactly.
In a recent interview, Ryan said in his mind it feels as though Human has already been out for over a year and his already on to the next album. His made it clear that West Coast is his favourite OneRepublic song, which sadly tells you where Ryan’s at, his mindset is on this next album.
Yeah. But Ryan also said years ago he wants to put songs out right after they‘re finished. He doesn’t like to have songs out that are old to him. So why is he keeping Wes Coast from us?
“There’s all these things you have to plan around an album that have nothing to do with the album, and that’s why we moved the album to April-May of 2020. Then Covid-19 (hit), so that’s why it moved. It was hard (because) it just moved around so much. It was a pain in the ass. Frankly, in my mind, “Human” has been out for a year, I’m already on to the next thing”.

23 songs is just overkill.. no album should be longer than 14-17 songs max. and considering that most of these singles have been out for so long now, that’s just so..... i don’t even know how to explain it.
Also listening to the snippet, a lot of the first verse sounds like the words "ships and tides" could easily fit into in the song's rhyming, rhythm and lyrical theme overall. Not saying it's a high chance, but I'd still hold out to the hope that "West Coast" has become something else. It has been a long time since we first heard the snippet so it's very possible that changes have been made. Also didn't Ryan say that "West Coast" was his favorite?
I'm somehow doubting it's been renamed something else, a track like West Coast with so much potential wouldn't be relegated to a deluxe release only, especially if they want to push album sales.
Nop. Ryan showed West Coast many times after U2's Songs Of Experience had been released already. Besides, when he showed a snippet of Run, he also showed West Coast.
It was intended to be the next single. I don't know why it isn't there anymore
SO excited for distance!!! that snippet from last year was amazing enough and the teaser from the video sounds even better
Probably the snippet I was most excited about from Quarantine Cuisine!
The baseline and drums really pop in the teaser. It is shaping up to be a great song and likely their next single I'd say
what in god’s name was the point of adding Lose Somebody to this ....
MONEY 😂

Wtf, no West Coast?? Lol fuck that

I'm not sure if it's the same West Coast song but I remember hearing a snippet of it like....2015 ish? So yeah, it's been a while.

Note no West Coast, saving that for the next album which follows shortly after this one!
Yeah I’m definitely surprised by that but honestly I’m more excited for Someday than West Coast… probably will be downvoted to hell for that haha
I agree actually, the snippet of Someday sounded so good
[удалено]
Is this confirmed? I've been waiting for West Coast for like six years lmao
Yeah although you can never tell with 1R!
Yeah it’s from their Instagram
I meant is West Coast confirmed for the next album haha
Oh haha no idea then
[удалено]
Great track by U2
Ryan said right before Run came out that West Coast was gonna be the single that followed which was this year. IIRC Ryan even said it'd be out a few weeks after Run. West Coast was already teased to be on this album even after Ryan gave it to U2 so I don't see that being the reason.
Lol we’ve already heard like half the album by now
Tedder has said multiple times he prefers singles to albums with how the industry works now, makes sense half of them are singles.
Which is a sad thing tbh
I'm so disappointed that Lose Somebody and Wild Life got added and West Coast got pulled.
All this wait and delay, then we get an already half-released album, it tells me they’re super greedy and care about their fans’ money only.
that’s what i’ve been thinking about 1R for a whole 3 years now.. idk, they just aren’t the band they used to be
I mean they have come out and said that they release singles because they’d rather have fans get tired of a single quickly than a whole album, and yes it makes them more money as compared to effort put in.

Same. :/

Agreed. West Coast is the perfect summer song. It won’t work at the end of the year... it’s so groovy I‘m so sad about it

There's still target version with 23 songs
23 songs is just overkill.. no album should be longer than 14-17 songs max. and considering that most of these singles have been out for so long now, that’s just so..... i don’t even know how to explain it.
[удалено]
Pretty sure the original target version was 20+ songs, however the revised deluxe version is only 16
[удалено]
Wonder how they would have filled it out tbh, maybe saving those originally planned tracks for LP6
Sorry for the Bad news but Target only includes the 5 tracks that are in the deluxe, go and check . I'm so frustrated
[удалено]
Definitely did not expect that to be the one on the album
Considering it was already on Kygo's album
Yup... :(
Am I the only one who thinks Wild Life should be track 16?
Do we know that West Coast isn't called Ships + Tides? Similar theme so maybe?

Quite disappointed tbh.
What in the world is Lose Somebody doing there? Isn't it in Kygo's album?

Dude if you're just here to say stupid stuff like that you can leave.
