Q: The top 500 lost tracks of all time

#1 Post by rashomon »

PSB appear in this months Q mag - The top 500 lost tracks of all time

A respectable # 55 for 'We all feel better in the dark'

I always loved this tune - in fact I think Being Boring/We All feel better ... is probably the best A/B side single the boys ever released.

I could mention at least 20 B-sides and the same amount of PSB album tracks that would have deserved such a chart appearance much more... - Yet it's nice to read to they get some recognition for their great B-sides.

I thought that feature was about unreleased tracks. (The magazine comes wrapped in plastic in Holland and I didn't buy one.)

Crap, really - I thought it was about songs I had never heard, not about songs that were track 9 on multimillion selling albums.

We all feel better in the dark has to be remixed more.
I would like to hear a real Dance version of it.

The Brothers in Rhythm versions are awesome! I remember that one album boyband Soul Decision sampled it for one of their songs and it was awesome!

I was always wondering hoe Brothers In Rythm managed to make such a wonderful remix of such a boring original song! If it is "lost" - then only in Disco 2 version!

I think that there are a lof of PSB songs better than We All Feel... that are hidden tracks like For Your Own Good or talking about b-sides Always, Bright Young Things and so on...

As a great b-side and a lost gem, I always thought Hit and Miss should have been a single (with a proper mix)...
The CELL by Stephen King instantly hit number 1 in New York Times Bookseller Lists selling well over 200 thousand copies in three weeks. This affirms my opinion: People really need an occassional good horror read...
