If one of these already exists, delete this post and I'll post it there instead.
I just heard this great song called "Sweet And Bitter" -- not the version on FF but the original bootleg, if that's not a contradiction in terms. With thanks to littleleila at EH for alerting me (and no doubt others) to it:

What's the story behind this version? Is it a fan creation using different elements, or an actual version the band did, or something using another version by Don Goldberg, or what? Seems odd if there were a more fully fleshed out version like this available that the one on Feel Flows would be what they selected. (Though I guess that's more or less how they handled "Seasons in the Sun," and with this band, one never knows...)

In a way, that's the joy of a BB jukebox -- you just punch the buttons and nobody asks any questions. Well, almost nobody.

'fraid questions and such are my whole deal: personally I've never been one to just listen on my own and not discuss, comment, question, or otherwise engage those around me.

I suspect this says more about me than about you! I was looking for somewhere I could just park stuff for no other reason than that I liked what I heard.

Have at it! I just thought maybe you'd want to discuss the things parked. But hey, no problem. I'll refrain from interrupting the links ... starting ... NOW!

"Surfin' U.S.A." is the BB song I'm most likely to hear in bars in NL (I heard it again tonight). More than "Kokomo", a more likely contender on the face of it, and more than "Good Vibrations". It may well be the Boys' most joyous 45:

This is the Capitol Promo CD Single of "Somewhere Near Japan", whose mix sounds grittier than that of the album version: A gorgeous song, to be sure.
