New single

from NDIFC.com

The news that "Six Feet Under" will be the new single, as NDIFC reported yesterday, is not correct. This is what was posted on their site:

Six Feet Under NOT next single
We would like to apologize for making the statement last night that Six Feet Under would be the next single. This is not true. When we checked it with the No Doubt management yesterday, we got this message:

"Six Feet Under is not going to be a single. It is being played on KROQ just to promote their Acoustic Christmas show, but there are no plans to do a video or release as a single."

Tickets for KROQ Acoustic Christmas go on sale Saturday at noon, and they are $45 and sell out quick!

New single

from NDIFC.com

Since KROQ already has "Six Feet Under" on regular rotation, "Magic in the Makeup" might not be the next single. It hasn't been played on radio stations yet, while "Six Feet Under" has been played, and not only on KROQ, but on other stations too.
