You Really Got Me (unlikely)

Desparate Journalist?

It's also unlikely that the peel sessions will appear as there are strange copyright issues with those recordings. Maybe they can work it out...

smokeverbs said:

Yeah that one's tougher.

So far I know of demos for

A Forest
Play For Today
Seventeen Seconds
M

and I also forgot about Desperate Journalist, the demo for Grinding Halt.

listed desparate journalist right above you ... but that's a peel session sort of thing too, so i dunno

hopefully faith won't be as simple as i imagine:

the holy hour
primary
other voices
all cats are grey
the funeral party
doubt
the drowning man
faith
charlotte sometimes
primary (extended)

carnage visors

i don't know of any demos, there's a peel session of all cat's are grey isn't there?

there's b-sides in this era - another journey by train, splintered and descent as well, but those are covered by the box set. it just seems that they would include b-sides on these bonus discs for those who didn't/would't buy the box.....?




ooo how about the infamous "tiannamen square" version of faith??

i know i probably spelled tiannamen square wrong.

I think Cool Colors is the demo of Primary.

I also have demos of

The Holy Hour
All Cats Are Gray
Forever

oh yeah... cool colours is awesome.

"yellowwwww such a happy colourrrrr..... yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow..."

super fresh

pornography is hard to figure ... there's a demo for one hundred years, i know that.

somewhere in here, hopefully we'll see a full length version of "ariel"...

I'm sure with The Cure that there are shitloads of songs we've never heard/heard of as well. Like how there's constantly new information about Prince outtakes. There will probably be several surprises on these bonus discs.

We'll keep Japanese Whispers separate then.

the top:

there's demos circulating for almost the whole album

TRON said:

that's funny cuz i considered what if pornography and an expanded japanese whispers were packaged as one?

smokeverbs said:

I also have demos of

The Figurehead
Siamese Twins

smokeverbs said:

They're about as different as 2 albums could be from eachother.

smokeverbs said:

This would be a good place for The Glove songs as well.

a demo for siamese twins? i would die! how is it?

yes, excellent place for the glove tracks...

and yes japanese whispers and pornography are so different, but that's what could ALMOST make it work... it's like two sides, night and day, dark and light...

smokeverbs said:

Not quite The Black Album and Lovesexy, but almost.

i don't know much what to say about head on the door ... a few demos i know of, like sinking.

i always imagined a two disc set for kiss me x3, but most of it is covered by the box set. i always thought kiss me, including hey you, plus the six songs from the orange ep, plus to the sky and any other remixes and b-sides would be the shit.

Here's what I have for '85.

Kyoto Song
Sinking
Inbetween Days
Throw Your Foot (alt)

If they don't end up doing Mixed Up as its own remaster, it wouldn't be bad if they included the remixes from their whole career on their respective albums.

Oh and I believe they had Peel Sessions from '85 as well.

TRON said:

curehits.com had demos for close to me and inbetween days as well...

and yes, i really, really hope to see 12" mixes added to all the applicable albums.

smokeverbs said:

Quiet, simple and good.

TRON said:

yup, i remember now that i've got a peel session for "six different ways"

it won't happen like this, but i've made a homemade copy of disintegration that goes like this..

plainsong
pictures of you (12")
closedown
lovesong (12")
2 late
last dance
lullaby (12")
babble
fascination street (12")
out of mind
prayers for rain
the same deep water as you
fear of ghosts
disintegration
homesick
pirate ships
untitled
pictures of you (demo)
lovesong (demo)

wish gets interesting...

open (fix mix)
high (higher mix)
apart
from the edge of the deep green sea
wendy time (alternate lyrics)
doing the unstuck (12"?)
friday i'm in love (strangelove mix)
trust
a letter to elise (alternate lyrics)
cut (alternate lyrics)
to wish impossible things
end

the six b-sides

lost wishes

and let's just throw never enough (7" version) and harold and joe in there too eh?

Yeah and what about Old England, Heart Attack and The Manor. Aren't those from Wish as well?

That looks damn good!

there's demos and "first pass" mixes of most of wild mood swings ... i'd like to see it used to be me restored to it's proper position at the end of that album tho. robert pulled it from the track listing at the last minute, or so the story goes. "bare" seems such a non-ending for the album, eh?
