Did he? Wow!
I had downloaded it for later consumption but haven't had chance to listen to it yet.

That live boxset has been on the cards for several years now (think Hooky mention it in one of his lockdown Covid chats with his son).
Would be nice if this finally materialises.

Considering Heart & Soul did a pretty good job of compiling the studio stuff, it does seem likely that any box-set would probably be based on live material.
I've mentioned this many times, but really hope any box-set contains a DVD of the complete live stuff (inc. Plan K and the Apollo stuff that wasn't featured on HATYM).

Yeah mentions the JD Boxset, but doesn't go into any detail of contents or release date - I dread to think how much that might cost!!! Mentioned Gillian's book which sounded like it wouldn't be until Xmas '25. Also said no new music but would like to do at least a couple of tracks (before the end)!! Worth a listen though, Stephen as ever very entertaining - certainly knows his music!!

Is it actually on YouTube at all, or have they completely fooked it up?

Weirdly the other links work, so you can listen on Spotify etc.

On YouTube now. Perhaps it just takes them more time to edit this video version as opposed to the other, audio only outlets.

Such an odd single in their discography. My opinion on it goes back and forth - I like it but don't love it. Have they ever discussed why they sat on it for a year and a half?

Not as far as I know. Will be really interested to hear the Japan Demo on the new boxset, to see how different it is.

When I first got into the band, there was a handful of songs I really didn't like; State Of The Nation, Face Up & Every Little Counts specifically spring to mind. I think I always felt they were all a little chaotic (ELC specifically because of the vocal performance).

But time is a great healer and, by the time that the really bad songs came out (Liar, Chemical, Slow Jam, Rock The Shack, Jetstream etc.), the above tracks seemed golden in comparison.

To be honest now, even if I don't compare them to worse tracks, I still really like them.


What I think is curious about State Of The Nation is that they pretty much reused the bass-line for Mr. Disco. Wonder why.

PS 'Shame' Of The Nation is a pretty decent remix, IMHO.
