thankssssssssss

True Love should have been the closer instead of A Distorted Reality... don't get me wrong i love Distorted Reality... but the b-side version is so much better than the album version...and this True Love is just...beatiful

i'm glad Pitchfork noticed the leak...

oh i see thankyou! i shall take a listen of course

I love True Love :heart:

 

Bumb for bumb's sake and all

 

They use his cover for the Beatles' song Because in the tv commercial for Six Feet Under.. here at least.

His cover of "Because" can also be heard in the end of "The American Beauty"

I love True Love :heart:

 

Bumb for bumb's sake and all

 

 

its a beautiful song :)

 

I am actually in love with all of the Figure 8 album last day or so, its just, perfect.

I Better Be Quiet Now :heart:

^^^ yes :)

i like pretty much every song,least fav maybe....color bars ?

bump

 

i cant stop listening to 'true love'

yes

 

along Stickman it's my favourite leaked Basement demo...would be a perfect album closer in my opinion...god, i'm still wondering how Elliott would mix that album if he'd be alive. double album? different songs? same tracklist as in 2004 released LP?

 

oh well, okay...i'm happy that we get all those unreleased demos, even if in unmastered and mp3 quality...they're worth gold

wait a minute, so he didnt decide the order in which aboah when in? i thought he did. :stunned:

wait a minute' date=' so he didnt decide the order in which aboah when in? i thought he did. :stunned:[/quote']

 

well, his family decided which songs will make and which won't the album...i mean, come on, the the posthumous album was released 1 year after his death!

well ok i know it was released after,but i just thought seeing as he finished that amoubt of songs,he might of had a basis of order he roughly wanted songs in.
