Album tracks never played live

As we know, the sods are notorious for slagging off really good songs that they've done.

Another Invented Disease
So Dead
Spectators Of Suicide (album version)
Nostalgic Pushead
Symphony Of Tourette
Gold Against The Soul
I'm Not Working
Be Natural
Dead Martyrs
His Last Painting
My Guernica
The Convalescent
Epicentre
Emily
Glasnost
Always/Never
Fragments
Auto-Intoxication
I Think I've Found It
Don't Be Evil
Builder Of Routines
I Miss The Tokyo Skyline (full version)
3 Ways To See Despair
Manorbier
Next Jet To Leave Moscow
Black Square
Misguided Missile
Myakovsky

Have I missed any...? That'd be a decent set..

Did Condemned to Rock N Roll get a full outing in the end? I remember hearing a slice of it as an intro to something else, or as part of an acoustic set or something...

Yes, on The Holy Bible tour.

Lots of boffin related fun to be had here. There are also some cracking one-tour wonders (Firefight for example) and several songs that have only been played a handful of times (Born a Girl, ForeverDelayed) or just once for a promotional exercise (Door to the River, Fragments.) Think we did some setlists they could play without any singles a while back. I reckon that would be fun in real life, although highly unlikely of course!

Ah wasn't thinking hidden tracks, suppose then you'll get We're All Bourgeois Now and Working Class Hero too.. Somehow doesn't feel right to count those in the same breath as Bag Lady, not being their songs..

Oh yeah, they did Fragments on a radio session or summat? Tend to count those separate from proper gigs.. Would love to see em pluck Door To The River out, can see it fitting into the James acoustic slot. Well, if there is one on the EMG20 tour I'll be hoping for Bright Eyes, hoped for it on THB20 but it is on the Design For Life cassette...

Do consider myself so lucky for some of the stuff I've seen though... Wasn't stood at Leeds 2001 watching Royal Correspondent, or Glastonbury 2003 watching Everything Will Be, or Wolves PPF watching To Repel Ghosts thinking I'll never see those songs again..

There's a live version on the demos disc of the Generation Terrorists reissue too.

Fragments was played on a Radio 1 session with a few other Lifeblood tracks (maybe To Repel Ghosts as well)...

So many great songs that never see the light of day!

Got Lifeblood on now, nice wintry album for a snowy day...

Was a bit of a slow burner for me Be Natural, feel like it was only about ten years ago that it hit me how much I love it. Didn't James mention summat about it being initially touted as a comeback single?

The band thought Be Natural would be the single, with Tolerate as the B-Side. I know Prologue as a flipper was a mistake, but that would have been criminal!
