You're right about Some Kind Of Bliss - that's credited to Kylie, James and Sean only. I Don't Need Anyone is credited to Kylie, James and Nicky though. (I always thought both tracks involved James, Nicky and Sean.)

I agree with your view of Waiting For Today To Happen (which really is a great song), with one caveat: Mr Carbohydrate and No One Knows What It's Like To Be Me could be considered comparably 'direct' and autobiographical (from Nicky's side) and they both made EMG-era b-sides.

It would be very interesting to learn more about how the Nicky/Broudie collaboration came about. To me, Waiting For Today To Happen sounds like a Manics track sung and performed by the Lightning Seeds, hence my original question about whether it was a discarded EMG-era b-side.
