There is no denying that most of the songs on The Promise are truly fantastic, but it should have been split up between songs with original vocals and the newly recorded ones - his voice has just changed too much over the years.
If you put all the 2010 "new" vocals on the same disc, holy shit, do you have some kind of new album on your hands. Even the songs I don't care for as much, like Save Your Love, fit MUCH better this way. Try this on for size:
1. Wrong Side Of The Street
2. Save Your Love
3. Someday (We'll Be Together)
4. Gotta Get That Feeling
5. One Way Street
6. Because The Night
7. Spanish Eyes
8. The Little Things (My Baby Does)
9. Fire
10. It's A Shame
11. Breakaway
That is a killer new album.
Then, use the remaining 11 as your "originals" disc (with some new enhancements of course, but still retaining the original vocal, making it truer to the Darkness time period). To go a step further, incorporate the four Darkness outtakes found on Tracks, which are just as good, and churn out a devastating Darkness companion like this:
1. Don't Look Back
2. Outside Looking In
3. Iceman
4. Talk To Me
5. Candy's Boy
6. The Brokenhearted
7. Ain't Good Enough For You
8. Hearts Of Stone
9. Rendezvous
10. Racing In The Street '78
11. Come On (Let's Go Tonight)
12. Give The Girl A Kiss
13. The Way
14. The Promise
15. City Of Night
Now that is fucking incredible right there.
Finally, when he inevitably releases more Darkness-era outtakes like Preacher's Daughter, Goin' Back, Don't Say No, Janey Needs A Shooter, etc., simply expand the Darkness companion CD to two discs.
Yes, I think about these things WAY too much.
