Umm... I don’t know...
This time I would rather have a true rarities compilation...For real, I don’t even own the first, sort of, “Rarities” mix-up!
Here is, however, the first half+ of my choises:
1. Crush on you (Almighty remix)
2. Wish I could fly (Tee’s in house radio mix)
3. I was so lucky (The golden blow) - or whatever it was called
4. Cooper (Closer to god)
5. Listen to your heart (abbey road)
6. The look (abbey road)
7. Help (abbey road) - they definitely have to release this time sometime or another
8. Chances (Dancehall version)
9. Stars (live)

Any “Rarities” version is welcome, cos I’ve not heard most of their rare songs.

If “The weight of the world” counts as a Raritie so must “Everyday” be on the CD.
Staffany said on March 16, 2005 04:50:
I just compiled the singles extra-tracks...
For those people who don’t want more compilations:
Let me say, I don’t want that either. This is a forum thread, I don’t work at EMI Svenska AB.
Just use your imagination and let us know what tracks you like more. I’d like to know what tracks released on the singles do you prefer.
It is not going to be released!!!
AURYTE said on March 16, 2005 05:19:
So you would like to know which extra-single track we like most, then here it is mine:
Makin’ Love To You
The Weight Of The World
Fading Like A Flower (live)
Don’t know if it counts, but I also love I Want You.
n-Somnia said on March 16, 2005 10:25:
I Want You should definitely be put on an album at some stage. Definitely a rarity

rarities wasn’t about compiling remizes there were only 2 on it so all the remixes are unnecessary. I think the b sides to the rs singles are a must, the demo to sdlha, center of the heart, and myth which are true rarities would be really nice and a lot of live tracks from the rs tour and the crush remixes

Does anyone know where I can get the breathe and matah demos? I really don’t want to spend $25 on two singles imports, especially when I already own the song featured on the single! If anyone has them, I have almost all other demos and some other rare tracks and would be happy to trade.
Staffany said on March 14, 2005 08:49:
This is my list:
B-sides:
- Entering Your Heart
- Happy Together
- Crazy About You (CBB Version) –> this would be the opening track!
Demos:
- Seduce Me
- 7Twenty7
- Milk And Toast And Honey
- Breathe
Live:
- The Look (Abbey Road sessions)
- Listen To Your Heart (Abbey Road sessions)
- You Don’t Understand Me (Abbey Road session)
(They would replace the 3 acoustic MTV Unplugges songs on the original “Rarities”)
Remixes:
- Cooper (Closer To God)
- Real Sugar (Shooting Star Treatment)
- Stars (X-Treme Extended Mix)
- Wish I Could Fly (R&B StoneBridge remix)
- The Centre Of The Heart (StoneBridge Club Mix Edit)
