Hey-O!

 

I always look for stuff by MSP online, but it seems it's all import. Also, there seem to be different versions of a lot of their stuff. Reading comments about each release on Amazon, the sound quality is not always good, depending on what version you have. So, I have no idea where to begin with them.

 

there are tons of singles, b-sides, multi country releases out there...check eBay.

US releases, Japan release, UK releases

usually the US releases are remixed to the "american rock sound" which if your talking clarity (rich bass drums, clear mids, crip cymbal crashes) differs from the UK sound (sounds a bit muffled). An example of this is "you love us" US version vs the UK. I think the US version sounds much better.

Generation Terrorists UK release has more tracks than the US release, but it's mixed differently.

From listening to various interviews, there is no love loss between the american arm of columbia/sony and the manics. There is always a power struggle for control of what type of mix goes to america.

 

I definitely liked This is My Truth Tell Me Yours the best. That was apparently their breakthrough album, and that was their first album I have listened to. The Everlasting, If You Tolerate This, and You Stole the Sun were some of my favorite singles of theirs. I was absolutely blown away with their lyrics and style.

 

I forgot to add, my favorite single of Manics is actually their rendition of Suicide is Painless (MASH theme). I think it was a Japanese release.

 

A Song for You - Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris
End of the Line - Traveling Wilburys
Roadrunner - Modern Lovers (original - John Cale version)

 

U2 - One


I have bad memories tied to that song, and it makes me sad whenever I hear it . . .

 

Immortal Technique - Dance With The Devil

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood

 

I thought of a couple more today....

I'll add:

"Ashes to Ashes" - David Bowie
"The Show Must Go On" - Queen

 

Rush - Tom Sawyer

 

I will add 2 more:

White Flag - Dido

Time- Alan Parsons Project

The very last time - Alan Parsons Project (This is because they wrote this because of his dog died, so I always remember my dog who died 4 years ago (BTW, my dog name was "Rocket")

 

I'll add Do You Believe in Shame? By Duran Duran, OMG, that song sends SERIOUS chills!! Doubt anyone else knows that song.
