Yeah I remember those single juke box holes. You used to have to use one of those plastic thingies in the centre on the record player to get them to play properly. I guess you would call them a vinyl single adapter. Quite often these were included with the turntable ( a little section in the corner of the turntable to keep it in when not using it).
Together with messing with tapes those were fun times and you had to put a bit of effort in to listen to music rather than just click some buttons.
Although all sorts of limited release singles have been available, I personally don't consider a single to be a single without marketing and probably a video. In that case Surf's Up was a single as there was a video.
Blind as a Bat should have been the first single from Bat 3, second single should have been Alive and third Bad for Good. Those are the biggest single failures I can see. Anything would have been better than IACBTMN as Meat had to do the whole why he recorded it explaining things and the production was rather disappointing in comparison to Celine Dion's so I don't see the point in that one and then we got what most of us here consider the worst song on Bat 3 as the proper second single. Very disappointing. Could have been so much better.
