There was a Japanese Forever Delayed EP with FD and TBTGOG (plus the latter's b-sides) on it, but this wasn't in it.

EDIT: why must you correct yourself just at the same time I'm posting, you're making me look VERY SILLY

Just found it on my hard drive. It was quite nice, but they really should have redone the vocal and done the full version.

So the one that came with 4ever Delayed is the 2003 mix? Excellent - that makes things easier!

The 2003 mix is absolutely fucking awful.

That said I think the standard GT mix is fucking awful too.

Imo ME is one of their most overrated tunes - generally too long, repetitive, middle eight is crap and too long, no need for extra verses after first solo - just cut the first solo, compact the extra verses if you have to and then go for the final solo. Cuts it down from 6 mins to about 4m30.

Oh wait...

"It isn't the 2002 Forever Delayed remix that was going around on promo late last year – it was rumoured that version would be released in the UK along with the previously unreleased Forever Delayed as the other half of a AA single early in 2003. This didn't happen but you can find Forever Delayed as a bonus track on this CD."

I'm not only here for the bad things in life like pointing out that some 'Manic follies' are too awful to get released, I'm also here to bring the evidence.

Promo of what was supposed to be released.

3:56 of 2003 Gobshite Mix.

And on the left, what was released.

All 6:05 of GT version with Forever Delayed as a b-side.

Some people have skeletons in their closet. Mine has shameful Manics promos hidden under big-ass shoeboxes.

Did the newer version, get rid of that ghastly 80's sounding piano bit?

I uploaded it but closed my Youtube account about a week ago.

I really love this version though! I didn't realise it was hated so much.

So what exactly do we need to get hold of to have it? It's a decent version, not as good as the original but still very nice.

Great music to jog to, though.
