What's your favorite B-Side songs..........

We have all gone out and bought a album, or for us olderfolks a 45 . Ok almost forgot the younger folks, on a CD you don't have a flip side.

[snip] interweb, this really sounded a lot better in my head . Now you can just by a song with no flip side.

So........................

What I am rambling on about is MOST of us have bought a record/CD and been surprise my another song in the album. Those are the songs I would like to ask you to post. Let's share some music. Maybe we will find something the radio DJ's missed.

I am starting out with Three Dog Night, bought this album for "Joy to the world"

Found these..........






I had heard this before but didn't place the group.
Anybody remember this/....................

Not quite there yet. You're still about a decade behind.
MP3 Players have 0 sides.




I'm not even gonna try to decide on a favorite, but these would definitely be high up on my list. They are just the first 2 that came to mind.

[align=center][color=AEDBE8]I don't look in the mirror
I don't like what I see staring back at me
Everything is clearer
I'll never see what you see

It's not me
So beautiful and free
I'll never be what you need

I can't help it at all
I was born so beautiful
but now I'm ugly[/align]

[align=center][color=AEDBE8]and I rot in my skin
As a piece of me dies everyday
I know I'm nothing
I know theres nothing I can say
To change
the judgement in their ways

I'll never be what you need
I can't help it at all
My love was so beautiful
but now I'm ugly

I'm good enough but I don't care
I'm good enough but I'm not there
I'm good enough but I don't care
(I can go anywhere)
(...somewhere)
The Sun is out but I'm not there
(I can go anywhere)
(...somewhere)
I'm good enough but I don't care
(I can go anywhere)
The Sun is out but I'm not there
I'm good enough
(I can go anywhere)
I'm good enough[/align]

[align=center][color=AEDBE8]metaphor for a missing moment. Pull me in to your perfect circle

one womb... one shape... one result

liberate this will.. to release us all

gotta cut away, clear away.. slip away and sever this
umbilical residue.. keeping me from killing you
and from pulling you down with me, in here
i can almost hear you scream[/align]

[align=center][color=AEDBE8]one more medicated peaceful moment
Give me one more medicated peaceful moment
and i don't wanna feel this overwhelming.. hostility
don't wanna feel this overwhelming.. hostility

gotta cut away.. get away...slip away and sever this
umbilical residue
keeping me from killing you
(slip away and sever this)
keeping me from killing you[/align]

"How can a pretty painted shell send them all packing off to Hell?" eee by gum I love the Roses

X, Your phone's off the hook. But you're not.

B-side of White Girl single, 1982...

reply to post by boymonkey74


The Roses...hard to beat man!

But in my own predictable style.....
The Smiths- How Soon is Now?.

It was originally the B-Side to "William, It Was Really Nothing" in 1984.

This is on the B side of a promo that I literally fought someone for.

This was the fourth single released from 'Every Kingdom' though was always my fav of the album

Your'e welcome, it's a great song, Iove it too. ETA, he's a he, I know he looks a bit girly with his hair and hood, but he's certainly a man, I tend to prefer male vocalists to my music, maybe it's a girl thing but I just do.

reply to post by theabsolutetruth

ETA, he's a he

I studied him for 5 mins, thought I was safe.

I finally get to say it , "kids these days"

B side of "Strange Town", the Jam...



B side of "White Man in Hammersmith Palais", the Clash...



B side of "Kick the Wall", the Telescopes...

This was a great song at the roller rink..

do you remember going to the roller rink?

I do, and I loved it back in the early 70's..

not sure if it was a B side or not, hard to find out these days..



I'm not a religious person now, but as a kid I liked to skate to this song...
