iTunes National Treasures - Track by Track videos

[Midlands_Junk]

Hello.
I understand that the iTunes edition has track by track videos for all 38 tracks, rather the select few the band have previewed elsewhere online.
I've already purchased the deluxe edition of the album, and don't really fancy shelling out again, just for the added bonus of the videos.
For those of us who already own the album, might someone out there be willing to upload these videos to Youtube?
Cheers x

No it doesn't contain a 'track-by-track' video for all singles. It has one 46-minute video that covers most, but not all of the singles. I think all the ones you get with the iTunes LP are online already on various sites, see manics site for links. It does contain the music videos for each track, but not the extra 'bonus' ones on the DVD. Faster's is different.


These are the singles that don't feature in the so-called 'track-by-track'.

*Stay Beautiful
*From Despair To Where
*La Tristesse Durera (Scream To A Sigh)
*Life Becoming A Landslide
*She Is Suffering
*Everything Must Go
*Australia
*Tsunami
*The Masses Against The Classes
*Found That Soul (though briefly mentioned in comparison to So Why Sad)
*Let Robeson Sing
*There By The Grace Of God
*Autumnsong
*Some Kind Of Nothingness

What exactly are these track-by-track videos?

The band talking about the songs.

Can you only get this by buying the whole album off iTunes?

[Porco]

It's just the band talking about their singles (except the ones I listed above), annoyingly spread over 5 different sites.

The links were on the official website, as I said, but here you go:

Part1 (thequietus.com)

Part2 (virginmedia.com)

Part3 (football365.com)

Part4 (drownedinsound.com)

Part5 (muzu.tv)

Oh, someone in the other thread told me there were videos for all singles.
So there's nothing we haven't already seen elsewhere?
That's lame.

I think the confusion possibly arose between the music videos and the track-by-track video.

Enter the Cashcow... (wasn't that a remake of a Bruce Lee movie...?)

So in short these are the main content differences with the iTunes LP as far as I've seen so far:
-so-called 'Track-by-Track' video (all as one thing instead of edited into 5 parts like on the web).
-Alternate Faster video.
-'Alternate' You Love Us video (Heavenly version of YLU) in place of the GT version You Love Us music video that is on the NT DVD.
-No alternate Autumnsong video (i.e. the simpler angel/devil girls one).
-No Jackie Collins Existential Question Time video.


I think the iTunes version is a perfectly nice choice for £10.99, but they're obviously being cheeky scamps as usual making us buy all versions if we want everything.

Oh cool, that had passed me by completely. Can't trust that lot to leave them all online so will have on Salt & Vinegar in an hour or two.

It's commercially available on iTunes. It's the same video.

The track-by-tracks are the same I'd assume, but the five vids posted above do not have all of the songs that aren't on your exclusions list (all the KYE to LB stuff, mainly). Would be interested to know what they have to say about them*.

*even though it's pretty easy to guess what they're saying about them anyway

oh yeah, you're right.

Highlights:

So Why So Sad:
-video cost a lot, and Found That Soul's was a lot cheaper and better.
-Sean liked the use of the stylophone
-James 'accepts blame' for song

Ocean Spray:
-Lovely Song
-Like the video

The Love Of Richard Nixon:
-Sean still likes it for its 'insanity'.
-They like the lyric

Empty Souls:
-Nicky was uncommunicative on Japanese tour, uncomfortable with commercial failure.
-Brief usual 'ashamed of Lifeblood' schtick from Sean and Nicky.

Anyone with too much spare time in their hands willing to give brief nutshells of their track-by-track comments on the songs that aren't on the five vids linked above?

By 'their' do you mean the Manics or 'anyone with too much spare time in their hands'?

The track-by-tracks are the same I think. The exclusions I listed apply to both the web videos and the iTunes LP version.
