Since we have many here who like to do own tracklists:
Has anyone ever made one with the "Open All Night album", meaning the left-over tracks we have from these sessions? I think the vibe on them is different than on These Days and am curious as to how this might flow as a standalone album. Anyone ever tried that?

NO but that's such a good idea. That sounds like a fun project to compare track-listings that flow.

I love doing stuff like this. When I listend to the box set stuff recently seperated into eras it's amazing how different These Days and Crush particularly could have been!

Do we have a definitive list of tracks that we think would have been "Open All Night"?

Obviously "Open All Night", then i guess in no particular order
Good Guys
I Just Want To be Your Man
Only In My Dreams
Letter To A Friend
Lonely At The Top
Flesh & Bone
Nobody's Hero
The End
Prostitute
When She Comes
Wedding Day
Bitter Wine (Demo Version)

That's 13 tracks.
Were some of those maybe intended for something else?
Should Good Guys be omitted as it was for a soundtrack?
Would we include Always and Someday I'll Be Saturday Night ?
Did we decide that Why Aren't You Dead? was definitley Faith era?
Gotta Have A Reason is 93 apprently. Too early for Open All Night? Certainly too late for Faith.

Just the other day I read an interview quote from Jon in the book "In Their Own Words" where he said that he couldn't use Why Aren't You Dead on KTF because it was too reminiscent of Bad Name and Bad Medicine and that it wasn't the direction he wanted the record to go in.

BTW: are Lonely At The Top on the Box Set and the B-side different?

They're almost identical, David's synth was replaced with cello which I kind of like more to be honest.

Gotta Have A Reason was written for the Three Muskateers soundtrack. That came out in Nov of 1993 so I....probably wouldn't count it.

Really? Don’t see the connections all. Maybe he means musically as definitely not lyrically.
Good guys is one of their best ever songs and it’s such a waste on a film that pretty much went straight to dvd.
I can see why it wasn’t used as it didn’t fit on These Days and definitely not Crush.
But I really can’t see why borderline, love is war and edge of a broken heart werent used as they do fit slippery /New Jersey era. If only we’d got that double NJ album as intended.

I actually once did this about a year or so ago when we had the discussion about Crush and Sex Sells (and back then I posted my Sex Sells compilation somewhere around here as well):

01. Why Aren't You Dead
02. Love Ain't Nothing But A Four Letter Word
03. Billy
04. Gotta Have A Reason
05. Open All Night
06. When She Comes
07. Letter To A Friend
08. Good Guys Don't Always Wear White
09. Prostitute
10. Bitter Wine (electric)
11. If That's What It Takes (I somehow have the feeling that one is from the early stages as well)
12. The End

Well, it's the same tongue-in-cheek kind of lyrics.
