new album (compilation) by the verve... is out o nov 1 with all their singles, b-sides and a couple of unreleased songs.
Tracklisting: 1. This Is Music 2. Slide Away 3. Lucky Man 4. History 5. She’s A Superstar 6. On Your Own 7. Blue 8. Sonnet 9. All In The Mind 10. The Drugs Don’t Work 11. Gravity Grave 12. Bittersweet Symphony 13. This Could Be My Moment (Previously Unreleased) 14. Monte Carlo (Previously Unreleased) considering they only have 3 albums is a compilation really warranted? i own some of their b-sides as well, not all, and am facing a dilemma over whether or not to buy it... but i suppose I'll end up buying it for the new songs anyway like I always do. the verve were great but this ain't really fair [Edited 10/10/04 17:47pm] | |

why'd they have to end so quickly? I really, REALLY enjoyed them. this looks like a good compilation, I'm sure I'll pick it up! thanks for the info  | |

also, there's a dvd with all their music videos coming out on the same day
and about time too - the bittersweet symphony video is an absolute classic though there's not many Verve fans here i see...u guys are really missing out. | |

That was about it however. Alternative radio played more but they only had the one cross over hit. That led to Urban Hymns selling pretty well in the US... | |

Buy it and you won't need to buy anything else by them. It has all their best songs on it and no crap ones. Shame they never made any money out of "Bittersweet Symphony" though. There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |

I am a Verve fan…I thought they already had a B-sides disc out though. Oh, this is B-sides & Hits, I see. Well I probably won't buy it because I already have their other stuff. | |

this thread inspired me to give "Northern Soul" a listen today. I forgot how much I loved that album! | |

Love that album, History is my all time favourite Verve song shortly followed by On Your Own. Hopefully they'll re-unite one day and make another great album. I've been saying that about The Stone Roses for even longer though. | |
