    I second that........that's one of my favourite tracks on the album.

    Also have to disagree with stig about diamond bollox. It's very different and I used to think it let the album down at first and for a time I actually cut it out of the album. Now i love the track. It just won't sit still and jumps around from a slow, depressing mood into a fast and frantic conclusion. The most innovative artist since Bowie.

    Yep its an awesome track but both mixes side by side doesn't work for me sometimes when listening to the album I will skip one of them.

    Golden Goose, a particularly ill-advised comedy song on Todd Rundgren's otherwise sublime album Healing.

    Yes, that's the one.

    Would say it's one of the best on a mixed album.  The End of the Golden Age of Stones records
  • DaveMehmetDaveMehmet
    Mother - Synchronicity - The Police

    I think both "Angie" and "She's Electric" are great tracks.........

    With you there Leroy! I always felt they meant that as more of a hidden track. I ignore it & if I do hear it, & generaly think of it as that. The same when I forget to stop 'Welcome To Sky Valley' by Kyuss & 'Lick my Do' comes on.

    "Home" spoils the otherwise perfect self titled Innerpartysystem.

    The ones they let George Harrison do on otherwise perfect albums (eg that sitar dirge on Revolver).
    Have to disagree with you here Spirit. If you mean the final track on Revolver 'Tomorrow Never Knows' one of my favourite Beatles tracks and about thirty years ahead of its time.

    I never understand it when people say "ahead of its time", because its not really, its just a great track, one of the best conclusions to a mediocre Beatles record.

    I love Frankly Mr Shankly.

    "Tomorrow never knows" was a Lenon track, I think he was talking about "Love you to" which is the Harrison Sitar track although has one of the highest BPM for a "dirge" I have ever seen or "Taxman" or "I want to tell you" or maybe harrison doesn't only have one track per album and it was just anothe Spirit wind up.

    Sorry. I could never see the point of it, musically or lyrically.

    Yeah - that one too. And the last tracks on Aenima and Undertow for that matter. Songs For The Deaf is also ruined by the stupid 'hidden' track
  • StigStig
    I hate hidden tracks.  If they're gonna put a track on, they should do it properly.

  • Leroy AmbroseLeroy Ambrose
    Ordinarily I'd agree Stig - but the hidden track at the end of Kyuss' final album (Day One) and Deftones' 'Around The Fur' (Damone) are proof that they don't ALL have to be duff
