JAPANESE WHISPERS AND...

STUFF

JAPANESE WHISPERS IS DELETED
AS THERE SEEMED LITTLE POINT IN REMASTERING AN ALBUM THAT WASNT REALLY AN ALBUM ANYWAY
AND (AS HAS ALREADY BEEN POINTED OUT) ALL THE JW SONGS ARE AVAILABLE AS REMASTERS ON THE GREATEST HITS AND JOIN THE DOTS

AND 'OTHER' KMKMKM SONGS...

THIS WAS A DIFFICULT EXTRAS CD TO COMPILE
AS THERE WERE REALLY TWO...
ONE WITH 18 UNRELEASED AND B-SIDE INSTRUMENTAL DEMOS
AND THE DEMOS/OUT-TAKES/LIVE ONE THAT IS TO BE RELEASED

ON BALANCE I (AND THOSE I PLAYED BOTH TO) FELT THAT THE DEMOS/OUT-TAKES/LIVE ONE WAS JUST MORE INTERESTING AS AN EXTRA WITH THE KMKMKM ALBUM...

MAYBE THE OTHER ONE WILL LEAK OUT SOMETIME...

ANYWAY...
THESE NEXT REMASTERS REALLY DO SOUND FAB... PARTICULARLY THE TOP!
RSX

AND (AS HAS ALSO ALREADY BEEN POINTED OUT)
NOW ALL THE CURIOSITY TRACKS WILL BE AVAILABLE
AND
THERE WILL BE AN 'ALL THE SINGLES' COLLECTION NEXT YEAR - WITH STARING AT THE SEA TYPE LINKS INBETWEEN
AND
THERE WILL BE A LIVE DVD BOXSET
WITH ORANGE
AND SHOW
AND JAPAN(?)
AND
AND
OTHER SURPRISE STUFF

AND
A PRAYER TOUR SHOW?
HMMMM...
IF I CAN FIND THE FOOTAGE!

ONWARDS...

****

I like the idea of the "All Singles" collection. Would it fit on 2 discs?


1. Killing an Arab
2. 10:15 Saturday Night (technically not a single, but....)
3. Boys Don't Cry
4. Jumping Someone Else's Train
5. A Forest
6. Play for Today
7. Primary
8. Charlotte Sometimes
9. The Hanging Garden
10. Let's Go To Bed
11. The Walk
12. The Lovecats
13. The Caterpillar
14. In Between Days
15. Close to Me
16. A Night Like This
17. Why Can't I Be You?
18. Just Like Heaven
19. Catch
20. Hot Hot Hot!!!

1. Fascination Street
2. Lovesong
3. Lullaby
4. Pictures of You
5. Never Enough
6. High
7. Friday I'm in Love
8. Letter to Elise
9. The 13th
10. Mint Car
11. Strange Attraction
12. Gone
13. Wrong Number
14. Out of this World
15. Maybe Someday
16. Cut Here
17. Just Say Yes
18. End of the World
19. alt.end
20. Taking Off

I don't think that would all fit..... Plus, I feel like I'm forgetting something....

There are lots of promos and obscure singles limited to a few countries.

Stuff like...

Grinding Halt
M
Doubt
100 Years
The Upstairs Room
Lament
Birdmad Girl
Shake Dog Shake
The Blood
How Beautiful You Are
The Last Day Of Summer

and so on.

"Other Voices" was on Staring at the Sea too, so I'm guessing they'll include that.

And I want that bonus bonus "Kiss Me" disc!

I can't wait. Show on DVD!! (Japan too, is great but I always found Orange to be very very BORING...) ... I really hope we get Play Out on dvd too!

I really can't say i'm in a hurry to hear more instrumental demos (re: what the 2nd kmkmkm disc almost was.) If they are like the bloodflowers demos, then maybe. But no more home casio demos, please!

The way he phrased the whole thing about the All Singles collection sounds more like it's going to be DVD. "With staring at the sea type links between the songs" or whatever he said. I tell all of you now: If the next cure dvd video collection does NOT include the long version of POY ... I won't be held responsible for my actions. We got fucked out of it on Picture Show (oh but they gave us the 12" vid for WCIBY??? Assholes.)

Regardless, this is a really exciting time to be a cure fan.

Yeah, I know, Sacrilige. Maybe it's Robert's short hair, the fact that the entire film is practically a freeze frame, or the fact that the performances lack much energy, but any way you slice it, it's a boring ass film.

smokeverbs said:

Yeah, what's up with that? I think it looks really cool, but I have no idea how they did that.

It is very cool to hear "Relax" by the Glove at the beginning of In Orange tho!

GangstaFam said:

maybe it will be a 3-disc set like the recent Genesis collection

NorthernLad said:

That'd be nice. I love "Join The Dots", but they seem deserving of a proper box set of hits/fan favorites as well.
