I think they set out to do the acoustic album as others have said, Jon was sick and then they tried to re-create it in the studio, and instead found themselves going off in a completely different artistic direction. Where we were supposed to get a couple covers we now have two new songs. The old songs are not just acoustic versions- they have been reborn. And that is what is so exciting- this did start out as an extra which was probably partially meant to get that last two million sold before the box set and it morphed into something else, something creatively driven and I think that is great.
