I also want never heard before material, but I would also like to get those pending accounts that are great. What I mean is that having a couple of songs in these boxes, which you may have heard before but which are great songs and highly appreciated by the fans, would be cool and make it more attractive.
I do not see where the problem is.
If "Nothing" were included, it could be the best song of this box almost certainly.
My point is that if we are talking about a large number of tracks, suppose we get 30 or 40 tracks when all this is over, I would not mind that 6 or 7 tracks that we had already heard but were never officially release (Nothing, Gimme Some, Life Too Short, Game Of The Heart, Lonely Is The Night.....) finally are included in this collection, as long as this sounds good -High Quality.
What would bug me is getting poorly chosen live track, you know, Its my Life live from Philadelphia 2013, or Lost Highway Live from ... any show from any date... but we've never heard of it before.
I'd fight to the death to get these songs in high quality, so if you want to continue to detract from my point, I'm not going to give up.

Right, well if it's 40 songs, yeah I think we'd all like that. But if we're in the position to hope for what we'd like in it and your two examples are songs we already have, I have to wonder why, right? Nothing and Gimme some we'd get the exact same song, just clearer. I'm aiming way higher if we only get a handful of songs. Sex Sells, This ain't a drinking song, Mona Lisa. A lot of this really depends on if it needs to be from the non Richie era, or from when Jon didn't have a full record contract, then we're talking slim pickings regardless.
Bigger picture, I'd love a better Nothing but if we're getting five songs for instance, nah. That's me. Not trying to detract you, just trying to understand why.
