Satellite is an These Days outtake - if you listen closely to the vocals it has to be from that era.

Indeed, and the guitars also sound the same as the ones they recorded for Open All Night.

Actually, I have considered that. That's what I find confusing about it. The vocals go with one era, the lyrics with another.

I know a few albums that were made in the 00's and more awful than Lost Highway.

He's got many valid points. But so have other people.

People seem to mix Sex Sells and Introspective or whatever the solo album would've been called. Sex Sells was the working title for Crush, a band record. Introspective was the solo album Jon was working on and that had songs like Older, Rich Man, Hush, Stay etc.

I was always under the impression that the solo album would have also had "sex sells". Interesting. I had heard there was a Jon only version of that song and he brought it to the band and they tried it but it didn't work. Good to know though.

I think satellite is definetly an outake from crush. It goes with the diversity that they were trying at the time.

And also they were 'borrowing' alot of ideas from other bands and artists which could definetly explaing the bridge...
