Really don't mind 'Put Your Hands Up' just a fun throw-away pop song. Will probably go down well when played live IMO.

Got hold of all the bonus tracks now, really like them all. Just don't understand why they were left off in the first place!

"I Will" really is a beautiful song. Can't stop listening to it, love the instrumental in the middle.

Let me know what you need and I'll put them in a dropbox-folder.
The last 2 I got from 'Powernoize' from this forum.
The first 3 I can deliver in any format you want, the other 2 only in MP3.

I salute you.

Yup, only about 15 minutes ago.

The more I listen, the tracks standing out to me most so far are Parade, She's So Mean, and Our Song. Radio, I Believe In Everything and English Town definitely hold my interest, though.

I don't really get too excited about Overjoyed. It's got a decent chorus, but it sounds to me like an attempt to make a repeat of If You're Gone, and it's nowhere near as good. I try not to judge a song based on length, but I also think there's a lot more they could've done with the song beyond the 3 minutes 7 seconds.

The album is growing on me, definitely. Put Your Hands Up isn't as horrible as it seemed at first. Definitely could be fun at a concert. Like MB20's version of We Got it Going On.

Maybe they were just having an off day, but when they supported Bon Jovi at Milton Keynes in 2001 I just wasn't bowled over. Some give me a Youtube vid to inspire me

This is an awesome performance of one of their best songs, in my opinion. The guitar solo/jam at the end is awesome.
