Yeah, that was one of two tracks (along with "Liepzig") that were originally on the American version. The 2009 CD/DVD reissue collects everything and then some. Still love this album and find it incredibly evocative.

yea that 2009 version is incredible. but I don't think this is the original "Urges". this is so strange. great find!

My first instinct was someone made a goofy mash-up but it's legit!

Side A definitely brings it. Who knew he could write songs like that?

But "Flying North" is king.
Metal bird dip wing of fireWhose airlanes comb dark EarthThe poles are tethers we were born inOn the brink of a whole new dealOn the floor of a Pan Am barI'm staring right into the lightAnd I'm drawn in like a mothAnd I'm flying North again...
