I LOOOVE Hush; it makes me smile like a goof. But it's a trifle, and would not have fit on the album.

Skeleton Park is meh - it reminds me of some early B-sides like Bumblebee or Dante where you can sense a song buried in there somewhere. The only thing to recommend it for me is that it's probably on a similar level to The Exact Feeling (though feeling's lyrics are better).

I'd say keep these both off, cut Exact Feeling, and shorten Struggle by two minutes.

I think Dante would have been the best song on DFN if it was left on, and I think DFN is their best album.

Have to agree with best album, but I think Dante runs a close second or third to Grace and Thugs. Would love to hear a clean version of Dante. When the heck are they going to release all the extra odds and sods?

DFN is my favourite album as well, by some distance. However, I stand by opinion that Dante sounds like an idea in search of a song. Of course, I might change my mind if I heard a clean version. And now back to Skeleton Park and Hush. Sorry that I initiated a brief tangent.

Cheers,

Hush reminds me of So Hard Done By without actually sounding like it....if that makes sense

Listening to Hush...

Makes me think of Rent-A-Goalie.

Anybody else?

I love both of these songs. Hush is very quirky and reminds me a lot of Tom Waits. I can understand why they left it off the album. Skeleton Park sounds like it would've fit perfectly in between The Last Recluse and Coffee Girl.

I would love to hear these songs?? Any suggestions where I may find them ?

Much appreciated,

While we are talking about ticking off fans with bonus tracks, does anyone know how to find the bonus track from In Between Evolution called "Night Is For Getting"? I can't find that one anywhere. I know I'm a couple years late down the road on that, but if anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

VENT: I think that if songs are worth being released, then just put them on the cd as hidden tracks so the people that follow your music and collect it can have it on the disc. The IVL tracks should have been part of that disc. Same with the IBE song (Night Is For Getting). It's almost like the bands are trying to kill off disc sales. Call me old school, but I only buy music off the internet when I have no other choice. :nooooo

Cut Exact Feeling? Are you serious? That's my favourite song!! :rambo:

Also, Night is For Getting is not available on Itunes in America.

I can't get it in the states. Why in the world would itunes limit their product anyway. I would gladly pay the dollar if I could. Anyone out there that I can work something out with?

hush baby hush, everything will turn out all right, hush baby hush, now we really need some quiet.

(because of this, when i first heard of the bonus track Hush I thought maybe it was just a rerelease or retooling of night is for getting - luckily i was wrong!).... hush baby hush

A most interesting discussion. Hush was worth a buck. That's what I like about the bonus tracks on iTunes-- you can buy the album without it (on Amazon, or hard copy, or whatever) and if you want to add the track for a buck, you can.

Speaking of, I really had my head in the sand when IVL came out. One of my favorite albums, but I was definitely not using iTunes or even MP3's at that time. (Yes, I was ignorant-- I thought that if it didn't come in a store in shrink wrap, it wasn't really music.) So I've still got my TTH card but can't get those three tracks-- never had them, never heard them. Are they available anywhere?

can't get this line out of my head:

"and patting the grass you said, come sit next to me, be my sweetheart, over in skeleton park"

it just bounces so good.

(the line about "raven took the moon and tucked it under her wing" is also excellent).

I've been listening to Hush nonstop lately.
One of the coolest songs das hip have ever done!
