My Alternative Quarry Track Listing

Well, seeing as the track listing for the Platinum Edition seems to be changing daily (see main page), and after listening to some b-sides today, I thought I'd do what others have done before and suggest an alternative tracklisting - all terribly subjective of course, and prejudging the obvious astounding quality of The Slum Mums, Home Is A Question Mark, The Public Image, I'm Playing Easy To Get.

By the way, has Moz dropped Lazy Dykes from the live set list now?

1: Irish Blood, English Heart
2: Let Me Kiss You
3: My Life Is A Succession Of People Saying Goodbye
4: First Of The Gang To Die
5: Come Back To Camden
6: Don't Make Fun Of Daddy's Voice
7: How Could Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel
8: Friday Mourning
9: I Have Forgiven Jesus
10: The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores
11: The Never Played Symphonies
12: You Know I Couldn't Last

Now I'll duck...

I would have to include It's Hard To Walk Tall When You're Small. Although i don't know what i would put it in place of.

From your tracklist that is.

Cheers Andy. I think a lot of folk realise that in retrospect the track listing should have been different. There are a few stinkers on the original line-up, and, given more time, it could have been a less plodding and more listenable album.

Erik - I was pondering over Teenage Dads - in my opinion it's the most lyrical of the Quarry songs, but, again in my opinion, let down by an ambulatory tune. Could have been a good one.

Still, as the French say, Chacun A Son Gout.

Really? I love it especially when it culminates musically and lyrically starting at the point where he starts singing:
"you're a dipper, slider,....."
The ending is AWESOME to me

Don't get me wrong Erik, it's a great song - I think musically it's very much akin to That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore in structure. I must admit when I heard it I went about the next few days singing it to myself...

Camden and Friday

In my opinion Camden is the best song on Qaurry. Friday Mourning is the best B-side.
