Default That Was Then, This is Now - Japanese Bonus Track
Here is a link for the bonus track on youtube so it is easier to find


Song sounds good. Like the solo but I can defiantly understand why it didn't make the record

I'm sorry I can't understand why it didn't make the album? I love it!

I love it to! I just can't think of song that this should replace. Even though some of the slower songs (KTB Mainly) aren't wonderful, they still fit the theme and add variety to the album so I wouldn't want to get rid of them.

He obviously wasn't going to take the song he wrote for his daughter's wedding off. It actually brought tears to my eyes even if Jon's voice did sound a bit weak.

My choice would be to take off Living In Paradise and replace it with TWT TIN. That is possibly because I don't like Ed Sheeran's music at all!

I do wish I had gone for the Japanese album!

Edit: After looking at the price of the Japanese album I wouldn't pay that much for a CD just for that one song. However, after hearing it that has really kind of spoiled Forever for me somewhat.

This song I think it best suitad as a bonus track. I don't see it as anything special, personally. At a push it could replace Living In Paradise, but it's not really any better for me.

Very Fleetwood Mac outro guitar solo. Nice to see so many songs with proper musical outros.

I love this song, and it is a standout for me of all the songs on Forever. Jon is very inspired here, he has a special feeling, the guitar work is simple but rewarding, that intro borrowed from Disarm by Smashing Pumpkings is also fantastic. It's possibly my favorite, I'm not exaggerating, much love to this track.

And yes, it should have easily been part of the official tracklist.
