Favorite unreleased tracks?
What are your favorite Damien songs that don't appear on either O, 9, or B-Sides?
I'm a fan of: -Cross-Eyed Bear -Sand (of course, and he absolutely needs to include this on his next album, although he won't) -Front Door -Bottom Shelf -Toffee Pop (I think this is actually Juniper material though) -Child, Man, Silly Dog Damien could put out a CD solely of his rarer, less played stuff, and it would be fantastic. |

With Damien, to me, the more obscure the songs, the better they are. And I think it's true on the opposite ends to, with popular songs like TBD or 9 Crimes that I just simply can't listen to anymore because they simply have lost their magic. So his best works come from the unreleased stuff, like the songs that you have listed. To me, some personal favorites would have to be: Old Tomatoes, Be Real With Me, Stone, Slow, Fool, and Front Door.

Front Door BTW, Marti can we get an update of the Bumpman big list of all Damo's songs?

Insane is the best unreleased!!!!! followed by Fool!!!!!
I love all the newies/unreleased from the 9 tour (Stone, You shouldn't be here, What this night is for, Beast & Beauty), we can also add Is That It My Friend cos the lyrics were 50% new. I also love the 2 latest ones from 2009 (The Waiting Song and Everyone Said it). I'd be happy if any of these makes it to album 3, I think they're all worth being included.

^I love love love Beast & Beauty!!!!! I was at the gig in which he debuted it live so it will always be special to me the melody is gorgeous & the lyrics are more mature than anything he's fdone before (except the cutie part)

If anyone has copies of these songs, would they be so kind as to post them to sendspace or megaupload or direct me to where I could download them? Thanks in advance!

so how many abandoned-unreleased post-Juniper songs do we have??????
I can only count: Front Door It didn't take you long Rule number Two Closer ^Out of this, the one bad bad one has to be Closer. But I really really like the other 3 songs, so I cannot really understand why he gave up on them...

I've been listening to "You Shouldn't Be Here"... does he say "wool" or "wood"? I've been pondering that line for a week. I'm also LOVING "It Didn't Take You Long".

^I think we discussed it once and someone pointed out that Paper Wool is some recycled material... not 100% sure though...

hmm. thanks for all the comments. I'm assuming it's just an analogy but... I still wanted to know. I thought it was wool, but wasn't for sure. I'm just now listening to a lot of the unreleased stuff, and figured yall had discussed it all before.
cille - that stuff looks familiar... I was thinking maybe it was something like felt. but had no idea.
