Hello Pulp People

 

Me again. 

 

Out of all of the tracks on TIH Deluxe, which 12 songs would have you included on the main album.

 

Oops one more rule, you can also include any TIH B sides that weren't included on the Deluxe album.

 

Once you have done that choose up to 5 songs that you would have released as a single.

It's a pretty good record and tracklisting overall (which is rare). I'd have removed Sylvia and switched Party Hard with We Are the Boyz though. Don't shoot me, you'll see why

Album

The Fear (Complete and Utter Breakdown Version)
Dishes
We Are the Boyz
Help the Aged
This is Hardcore
TV Movie
A Little Soul
I'm a Man
Seductive Barry
Glory Days
The Day After the Revolution (shortened)
This Is Hardcore (End of The Line) 

Singles

1. This is Hardcore : the shock. After a pop record, that song, that video, without hearing the rest of the record. 14 years later, i'm still not covinced i really heard it right the first time. So it has to remain the first one. Weird Bsides as well. That's the dark single
B sides : The Professional / Ladies Man / It's a Dirty World.

2. Glory Days : first single isn't always the "strongest single". There you go that's the most radio friendly one. Good song, pop enough. I like to have both version of the same song on the same single.
B sides :  Street Operator  / Laughing Boy / Cocaïne Socialism

3. A Little Soul : another obvious single (for 98... now not really)
B sides: You Are The One / Can I Have My Balls Back Please / Sylvia

4. Dishes / Party Hard : double A Side with the soft side and disco trash side. A new track to keep people interested ala Beatles. 4th single can be adventurous so there you go. Like A Friend is a good song to close this campaign i thought.
B sides :  Tomorrow Never Lies / Like a Friend

Mine doesn't stray too far from the original.

  1. The Fear (Complete and Utter Breakdown Version)
  2. Like a Friend
  3. Party Hard
  4. Help the Aged
  5. This is Hardcore
  6. TV Movie
  7. A Little Soul
  8. I'm a Man
  9. Seductive Barry
  10. Sylvia
  11. Glory Days
  12. The Day After the Revolution

As for singles, well that's where they went wrong with "This is Hardcore" if you ask me. I'd have gone with the following:

  1. Party Hard - that way, they couldn't have been accused of releasing a dark song ("This is Hardcore") or a re-hash of "Common People" ("Cocaine Socialism") before the album. Promoted well (unlike "Help The Aged"), it would have easily cracked the top 5.
  2. Glory Days/This is Hardcore - this way, Jarvis gets his pornographic lyrics into the charts whilst having another track there to get some of the airplay. I think that the airplay would have been concentrated on "Glory Days" but the reviewers would have liked "This is Hardcore".
  3. Help the Aged or Sylvia - can't make my mind up here but I think that either of these would have sold well around the time of Glastonbury.

That's it. I wouldn't have released any more singles from the album. There weren't any (but that's more a complement to the album).
