They need to issue real cd single.


That way everybody could buy the extra tracks legally without spending a fortune in the deluxe  ;D



That would be the perfect sense thing to do

So it
You might get lucky, now and then

Would be interesting to hear the edit. I guess all the whistle intro is gone.

Does anybody have the radio edit of What It Is? Back in 2000 somebody recorded it of Italian radio (complete with Italian DJ!) and uploaded it as an MP3, I must have listened to that 100 times before I finally got the album, when I did, the album version sounded a bit bloated in comparison to the tight radio edit.

That was my first version of What It Is, too  :) I still must have the mp3 somewhere, plus various promo TV appearances with the edited versionon VHS  :o Pity the official video of "What It Is" seems to have disappeared from youtube. That version was edited, too. Oh by the way, what about the extended Mexican version? LOVE the extra verse. Ah, good ol' times  :)

EDIT: Google is your friend  ;D Just found the video somewhere else:

Did anyone say that the three bonus tracks are new recordings?   It occurred to me that they will be soundboards of tracks on the KTGC tour.   Hope not.  Tell me I'm wrong.  :-\

Great news, thanks, ustas, as always. 

Hey, what about the artwork for this single?  It seems a part of Ian Lewis'.   :)
