My guess is that's all it is supposed to be. Great tune, great performance, but it's not going to be a major radio hit and my guess is that whoever decided this would be the first to come out knew that.

fwiw, Voodoo had *one* "$" track and I'm convinced that was something of a fluke... by which I simply mean that Untitled was sort of out of place on the album, sonically, not unlike Left & Right (the $ track that wasn't). I'm glad he dropped the track, but anyone looking for it to wipe away all questions or doubts (esp. if they are already a "doubter") is fooling themselves... because if this album is anything like Voodoo (and the imagery and hints suggest it is), then it's probably going to be intended as an *album*.... pick any track off Voodoo besides the aforementioned, and they stand on their own for sure but they make much more sense in the context of the whole (imo).

Does it matter?
