"Bar bar bar" another missing song from the aussie "Car Song" single.

fwiw the UK album ends with Stutter, Vaseline is track 13, dunno how much input the band had for the US track listing

^ Yeah, I was just about to say this - I've always known 'Stutter' as the album closer.

Also, the US version has 'See That Animal' on it.

"Stutter" is a powerful closer! As it were.

I didn’t know the UK tracklist was different.

Don't know why he called out "See That Animal" as "problematic" when "Indian Song" was sitting right there...

if you are looking for "problematic" then track 4 on the Stutter CD single would be the obvious place to start.

Why is See That Animal problematic? I don’t know the references or whatever

(It may be that these were the only fifteen songs they had in their repertoire – “See That Animal,” which materialises in the midst of the U.S. edition of the album, is problematic, given the identity of at least one of its authors.)
The full context of the quote. Assuming he's referring to Brett Anderson, listened as one of the writers for the song, but I'm still not sure what makes the song particularly "problematic".

At least I'm not the only one who thinks The Menace is a "hidden gem".

Today I suddenly remembered awkwardly hanging out with everyone in the band but Justine for an hour or so before a show behind "The Menace."

My Sex (a co-write with Loz 'ex-of-Kingmaker' Hardy) from The Menace is the best thing they ever did.

I really enjoyed that re-imagined ‘The Menace’ upthread.
Hoping they get around to a vinyl reissue of it to go with the first one.
