Don't gimme the funk - has a big potential to be a hit.

Don't let it be me - a bit calm song with bass in the back, great combination.

Forever(Keep me running) - if changing this track in that way that main melody would remain the same and adding some lyrics.

We bring the noise - Scooter in electro style + has great lyrics.

Everything's borrowed - if main melody would remain the same and adding some lyrics.

Well done, Peter - hard enough to have sucess.

I would have liked to have seen either Like Hypa Said or The Chaser become singles as i think they would have shown the public a cooler, classier, "cutting edge" side that most non-fans don't get to hear.

Although, i think the only track that definately 100% should have been a single was We Bring The Noise. I dunno, it's just got SINGLE MATERIAL written all over it and if they had remixed it and improved it for the full single version we could have had a massive Scooter classic on our hands. Plus, it's track that kind of sums Scooter up as a band.

What should have been single:

Our Happy Hardcore - Dunno why, its the title track of the album and would have matched with the time in the mid 90s

We take you higher - Only two singles from the album is not much and this song had hit potential, Im sure

Hit the Drum - Same at Wtyh

Sex Dwarf - Like a second Rebel Yell, would habe been nice and more successful than Shes the sun, which I also like

Take a Break - This is the track where I really dont understand why they chose it as a single. Should hve been released instead of The Night

"Don't Gimme The Funk" definately. There's no excuse because it was the best song on the entire album. Hell, they didn't even like "I'm Your Pusher" so why not switch the two. The original plan was to release "Don't Gimme The Funk" and "Dusty Vinyl" on the same single but they did "She's The Sun" instead. Mistake.

"The Chaser" should have also been a single. So much potential. Beautiful song, could have easily been more successful than "Suavemente" (although that was a good song too).

Don't gimme the funk rules big time,it's "good-mood" song.I can't understand why they took the Pusher to be a single.
I think Summer wine would be better than She's the sun.
I think H.P wanted Space Cowboy to be a single.

Hit The Drum and Dancing in the moonlight are great as singles.
I really regret about Dancing in the moonlight-not a single,it's one of my favourites.
WBTN is good different song too,with H.P's voice that sounds more natural.
R U

would have rocked the charts big time.

Expecting more from Ratty is great.It would be kind of Intro to the whole Ratty issue.

"She Said" which was rumoured to actually be lined up as a single, before "No Fate" was produced.

I think we discussed that,and most said that the moaning was funny but too much silly as a Scooter single.

Quoted from ""Screamin Lord""

...oh yeah Abracadabra was very cool but too short.

Of course too short, they only played a short part of the instrumental at Alarm für Cobra 11. :lol:

But this song was planned as single. I've got a short making of from their Alarm für Cobra 11 appearance and at the end of this report they said that Abracadabra will be the next Scooter single. I'm really confused why they didn't release it? :roll:
