what 04-09 b-sides that were left off should hav been included on Swords?

[chrisarclark]

to my mind, more than a couple gems were left offf Swords (to the inclusion of a few lesser tracks). let\s see if anyone agrees.

 

[headlongintoharm]

I'll never understand why he abandoned "Easy To Get."
Such a beautiful little pop song.

 

[Bhoy_least_likely_to]

I'd have liked mexico and human being to be on it. I think It's Hard To Walk Tall When You're Small is on it.

1. No one can hold a candle to you
2. Song from under the floorboards
3. I am two people

 

[chrisarclark]

glad to see the lov for "The Public Image"- one of his best of the decade.

 

[ray_afraid]

Why not include all of 'em in the collection?
As far as ones I love that didn't make it go:

HUMAN BEING (New York Dolls cover) -itunes bonus track, but that's not enough
I Am Two People
No On Can Hold a Candle To You (Raymonde cover)

It's Hard To Walk Tall is on Swords - track 12 between I Knew I Was Next and Teenage Dad On His Estate.

I wish they'd included the YATQ outtake Home Is A Question Mark instead.

Have you actually heard 'Home is a question mark'?
If so, what's it like?

 

[The Ghost of Troubled Joe]

All of them - but as thats not a choice I went for Playing easy to get. It could have been released as a single to promote the album

No - but just knowing it exists makes me wish we could hear it!

why the hell were mexico and i am two people left off

One of the finest.

A glaring omission.

Duh, I voted for "Walk Tall" then I realized it is on Swords. I just love that song so much I'll vote for it in whatever poll praises it

 

[Oh my god. it's Robby!]

I was surprised he did not pick "Human Being"
I thought he loved those guys.

 

[Slip-In]

I could do without the Live CD on the limited edition, instead, I would have chosen to add all the B-Sides from You are the quarry onwards, really make it a B-Sides Collection but I suppose that would asking too much?

I wonder how long before Decca/Polydor/Universal release The Singles Collection, The Best Of, that includes tracks from all three studio albums. It's bound to happen sooner or later.

Yes it is

I love the blurb "Hand picked by Morrissey". Well Der who else is going to pick them? Has someone sles been selecting his track listings all these years?
