Spanish eyes is a JT b-side! That's cheating.

Silver and Gold gets a pass because its first appearance on an album was R&H.

I put Hallelujah Here She Comes on my early lists. But recently I switched it out with Spanish Eyes, even though it's cheating. It just works in the album nicely. And HHSC doesn't have album quality mastering, it sounds like a demo.

But it's awesome and When Love Comes to Town sucks.


When Love Comes To Town is decent, but I have no idea how it was on the 'best of' album and running to stand still, one tree hill, electric co, etc. were left off. I mostly like it and the rest of Rattle and Hum because it's so much different than everything else they've done. 1987-1997 was such an incredibly diverse era. Also, the ZooTV version of When Loves Comes Town is a pretty sick, funky acoustic.

I've got the perfect No Line track list, trust me:

1. No Line on the Horizon
2. FEZ-Being Born
3. Winter (Linear Version)
4. Unknown Caller
5. I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
6. Window in the Skies
7. White As Snow
8. Magnificent
9. Breathe
10. Moment of Surrender

I know some might take issue with WITS being in there but it actually fits really well and is much better than the songs I left off.

Seriously, try it, it's great.
 
1. Mofo
2. Holy Joe
3. Do You Feel Loved?
4. North and South of the River
5. Staring at the Sun

6. Discotheque
7. Last Night on Earth
8. Gone
9. Miami
10. If You Wear That Velvet Dress
11. Please
12. Wake Up Dead Man

I love Pop as it is death, but I'm an addict when it comes to messing with track lists and devising dream set lists and pointless shit like that, so this is one I don't mind. I didn't really want to lose IGWSHA, but I think it's the only place you can slot in N&SotR without rearranging totally everything else. That, and I think losing Playboy Mansion does wonders for the album full stop, even if it's not replaced by anything not already on it.

Id also include Two Shots of Happy, but I think that would have to be in place of Velvet Dress and that's too big a compromise for me :shifty:
 
Just created a new playlist called 'Songs of Horizon' and tracked it in a manner following AB. I wanted to combine the songs I like best between SOI and NLOTH and also create something bright and poppy, perhaps a little rock-ish. Interference will hate it but whatevs. lol

1. NLOTH 2 - The 'Zoo Station'-esque experimental intro. I like the extra bounce of the remix.
2. Invisible (Red Edit) - The EBTTRT short rocker single.
3. Every Breaking Wave - The 'One' ballad single.
4. Stand Up Comedy - I know I lost everyone here but I like it and it's my guitar rocker. Not as good as UTEOTW but fits tonally with what I'm trying to do.
5. Crazy Tonight - Same here filling the 'Wild Horses' spot.
6. Winter (Linear Version) - Different and atmospheric, it doesn't sound like 'So Cruel' but as close as I could find.
7. The Miracle - Big guitar rock like the Fly
8. California - Technically 'Magnificient' would fit tonally better in the 'Myst Ways' spot, but I don't care for Magnificient. So took something else with a strong base line even if it isn't funky.
9. Iris - I slid this all along the playlist before settling here just because I wanted to include it even though it sounds nothing like TTTYAATW. Hmm, maybe I should flip it with Cali.
10. Fez-BB - Does a decent job in the 'Ultraviolet' slot. Almost put it where 'Wild Horses' would go as it has that epic feel too.
11. Breathe - Prominent guitars is the only thing I could say it has to do with 'Acrobat' but then again, what could ever match 'Acrobat'?
12. Song for Someone - Should really be MOS, as that would actually tonally match LIB pretty well, but I wanted to keep things upbeat and MOS is on the darker side.
 
I think I've finally found the perfect TUF retracking.

I've been playing around with an alternate Bomb. I know we're all in agreement that the tracklisting is awful, but I still think it's a pretty good collection of songs, for the most part. Here's what I have now:

1) City Of Blinding Lights
2) Love And Peace Or Else
3) Vertigo
4) All Because Of You
5) Electrical Storm
6) Original Of The Species
7) Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
8) Miracle Drug
9) Mercy
10) Yahweh
11) One Step Closer

It's heavier up front and more emotional in the back. I like OSC following Yahweh and serving as the closer. To me this has somewhat of an ATYCLB-vibe to it (COBL/BD, Vertigo/Elevation, OOTS/IALW, Mercy/WILATW, OSC/Grace), though I might be stretching a bit. But I'm pretty happy with this.
