Why not give FUGITIVE a run

I know it's been mentioned before but surely Fugitive is a strong contender for a possible single release ( i believe there will be another one from the Fundie campaign ) whether or not all on it's own or backing up Integral as a double A side.
Am i the only one who can hear a slight touch of "Love comes quickly" in the background of Fugitive, if you can hear past all the other awesome sound effects ?
Fugitive is way too good to be hidden on a bonus disc.

I expect the Fugitive 7" version will be kept as a b-side to a future single, so be it.

if they didn't put out Sodom, they ain't puttin' out Fugitive. and from what I know, N&C don't seem to think much of Fugitive while they both love TSAGS.

Fugitive - 7" would be an awesome b-side!!!

Then again, I'd rather just have new songs

Fugitive is a damn good song and I really can't understand how they manage to waste such fabulous songs for b-sides or bonus CDs. But we should remember how it happened many times before - with It Must Be Obvious, Forever In Love or A Man Could Get Arrestred. Whatever you like...

Fargo is right...
The first proper PSB hit, had a B-side that should have been a single. It's a "tradition" PSB haven't changed ever since. The Resurrectionist is the most recent example of a B-side with hit potential.

So, all of you´re suggesting that we must get crap stuff for b-sides, because if it´s good is nonsense??

It only means that we always should pay attention to every b-side, every remix, every compilation album or bonus CD. There definitely are great songs we shouldn't ever miss!

Why all the fuss about Fugitive?

A very average track which began life as a Closer to Heaven demo.

or b) yet another brilliant track hidden away somewhere and completely wasted whilst dross like Numb gets released and ignored by just about everybody in the world.

No, I'm suggesting that PSB are still as brilliant as they used to be during their popular years, they only got worse in picking the right singles. Or better said: putting the right stuff on their albums.

Betrayed, Hit And Miss and Delusions Of Grandeur are B-sides, Electricity is on Bilingual.
Screaming is a B-side, I don't know what you want but I can't give it any more is a single
I Didn't Get Where I Am Today, the most potential hit song from the whole Release sessions, is a belated B-side..
etc etc

Screaming shouldn't even have been a B side. Not only was it already available elsewhere at the time, but it's crap! We really got hosed on the Nightlife B sides...

What? 'Lies' & 'The Ghost Of Myself' are superb!

Did anyone notice that the keyboard riff comes straight from "Battleship Potemkin"? Brother, o brother...

Anyone knows where is possible to find the original version of Fugitive - not remixed. Remixed version satisfies me in the best way it can but anyway it's quite interesting to compare to original.

As Richard X is the producer of the track on the only way it was released, I don´t know what you mean with original version...maybe a PSB demo prior to be fully and finnally produced by Richard X? or maybe the Richard X Radio edit??? Anyway, none of this saw the light at this time...
