I meant the version of the song off the SIYL single. Speed Kills is the B-side.

DIdnt wanna be confrontational, but cant you go down your list of albums and pretty much pick a great song or two off of every single album that wasnt a single?

Yes and then you got some shitty ones too. I'd want to know if I ever wanted to get into a certain band and wouldn't want to be put off by the songs that were bad.

Jimmy Eat World - Just Tonight... off Futures

Best song on that album, ridiculously fun and catchy, would've been a big single.


Also:
Smashing Pumpkins - Age of Innocence
Third Eye Blind - ANYTHING off their debut album that wasn't a single.
Arctic Monkeys - 505

Slide Away - Definitely Maybe - Oasis
I was never a big fan of theirs but that's a good one. I also have had a soft spot for "Acquiesce" since I saw it live years ago, despite the admittedly cheesy lyrics.

Off the top of my head:

Wilco - Jesus, etc.
Yo La Tengo - Season of the Shark
Sleater-Kinney - Turn It On
Rolling Stones - Dead Flowers
Arcade Fire - The Woodlands National Anthem
Bob Dylan - You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

The first 12 tracks on the CD, which are 5 seconds each, form a minute of silence for Justin[citation needed].
