Good topic - hard to put in order but here’s my fav 10

Edge of a broken heart
Outlaws of love
Good guys don’t always wear white
Radio saved my life tonight
Out of bounds
River runs dry
Nobody's Hero
Taking it back
I just want to be your man
We rule the night

Radio saved my life tonight
Garageland
Why aren't you dead?
River runs dry
Satellite
The one that got away
These arms are open all night
Starting all over again
You can sleep while I dream
Sympathy

(In no order)

I deliberately left tracks that had previously been released from my list, Starting All Over Again and Edge of a broken Heart could easily have been included.

Default Top 5 songs from the Box Set.

I noticed when I was looking through the tracks that there was a lot of dross on these 4 albums but credit to the band for putting it out there for us to listen to.
I’d love another one.
You can tell some were never gonna make it onto albums/singles but the tracks that did like Good guys, edge of a broken heart etc stand out a mile (probably due to extra bit of spit and polish) but I’m still amazed to this day how Radio Saved was deemed not good enough for anything. The box set version is just missing a solo due to it being a demo but stick a decent solo on and you have a top class track.
I also feel the same about Outlaws of Love. Really great track that’s never been used.

I'm not sure I can put together an overall top 10 but I agree with that Radio is far too good of a song to be on the box set and not a regular album. I personally really enjoy Last Man Standing, Last Chance Train, These Arms are Open All Night and The One That Got Away amongst others that I'm probably forgetting. I'd love to see something from the boxset be played live again but can't see it happening.

Not the box set version of Starting all Over Again though! The vocals are horrible! The B-Side version was far superior! That's why I left that off.

I agree with that.
