that song is amazing
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 20:07 (eight years ago)
Did you ever hear the demo of 'Beautiful Night', Brad? That song had been kicking around since the late '80s, circa 'Once Upon a Long Ago' ... it was originally part of a proposed album called Return to Pepperland which was supposed to have been the follow-up to Press to Play, but it got scrapped.

oh yeah there's another paul album that's pretty much front to back great, chaos and creation xp
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 20:08 (eight years ago)
i didn't! i'm gonna look it up now
'The End of The End' is a favourite of mine, too - one of the most directly personal songs McCartney has ever written.

'We Got Married' and 'This One' were meant to be on it, too, but of course ended up on Flowers in the Dirt instead. Others like 'Love Come Tumbling Down', 'Same Love', 'Loveliest Thing' etc. ended up as Flaming Pie B-sides.

this "beautiful night" demo is looovely
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 20:12 (eight years ago)
(Well, the others did - 'Loveliest Thing' was the B-side of 'Figure of Eight', I think.)

Same for "Scared" from New
― timellison, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 20:13 (eight years ago)
'Early Days', too!
so apparently when I was dumping the last 5 late ballots into the results tabulation spreadsheet, I didn't expand some formulas correctly and those votes weren't counted. which, doesn't seem right... I'm inclined to just post the revised results so far (placements are different but the set of songs is p much the same) and go on to the top 10 from there. sorry for my spreadsheetery failure, this shit is complicated!

― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 20:25 (eight years ago)
naturally the lower 50 changed the most, since that picks up the songs with fewer votes. the last 50 was more stable. What made me notice the error was that there were 3 number 1 votes for Back Seat of My Car, but my results tab was only showing 2, which made it place a lot lower than it should have.
