Why do some PopArt 2xCDs have a track called Numb on them?
I am quite happy with the 3xCD UK version, but does the 2xCD have a
different track or is this an error somewhere?
Also where is a good place to buy the elusive French version quickly for
sensible money, anyone got a french retailer's website?
Thanks in advance.

Did Ramzy get the vinyl version? What is it like?
Did you get the free PopArt carrier bag to increase its value in the future.
The record shop that knows me was giving away 4x postcards for free so I got
two sets. I have to go back later, shall see if there is more - looks nice
in a clip frame as makes a display board ad :)

'Numb' is a track written by Diane Warren, which the PSB think may go on
their next album - it was planned for the second 'new' PopArt song, but
replaced with 'Flamboyant'. Several online retailers are still showing the
first planned tracklist, which I guess went out before it was amended. The
2CD is identical to the first 2 discs of the 3CD.

Erm...he did.

>What is it like?

Highly tasty.

I did not, no...what free PopArt carrier bag? I never got any free PopArt
carrier bags...*goes off crying quietly*

I wasn't even aware there were postcards...some people get all the free
merchandising. *sob*

Basically it looks like one of those reusuable carrier bags, only weaker -
but it has Pop Art logo on it...
It's so you can advertise your vinyl as you walk it home...
I have a carrier bag, not bought the vinyl as was at £30.00 and I find vinyl
tends to lose money...and I prefer CD.
I intend to buy just the 2xCD (if cheap enough) and the French edition CD.

Quite like these, I ought to clipframe some of the others I have too, like
Before and A Red Letter day. I have to go into town, might buy some
clipframes... Pop Art when framed forms the logo across the top, the
popart inlay (reduced) bottom left and tracklisting (CD style) in bottom
right. That's why was greedy and took two sets. I think it will be rare.
:)
I have framed two of those rotating WIWT thingys too....
I also have all four Go West badges, all four stickers, still Mint :) -
displayed in a CD wallet, staples keeping them in slots...
(any better ideas anyone)...
I think there was a Somewhere flyer somewhere, but I never received that
one. Though do have the outer packs for the CDs!!!
(though why are these designs not universal, ie where the openings are...)
Also have a Jealousy stand card thingy and two massive photos from top of
Behaviour along with name plaque :) Be great if were signed...but not :(

I really must update my discography list... I lost it, but had luckily sent
it to a friend years ago for safe keeping!!!

Record Shop - Claim To Fame:
Apparently Neil has shopped there, must have come to gaze at our wonderous
cathedral (zzz)!!! Apparently bought some of the singles used when they
did Radio 1. It's overrated...

Did I ever tell the group that I'm the "sugar bear" Elton's singing about in
"Somebody Saved My Life Tonight?"
