The start of it is very "Look, it's us in 1992.. and 1998!"

Actually, now I see what they've done. They forgot to split the 2 discs.

Still doesn't explain why Ocean Spray is explicit and Roses isn't, but WEK is clearly in charge of more than the official website and you've just got to be patient. He'll have worked it all out in a fortnight or so.

You Love Us gets its outro left intact, which means they will be FORCED to play it at the O2.

ooh yeah, strange how they chopped all those for FD, and have now left a lot of them intact. and yes for the YLU outro! if they don't play that i'll be disappointed now

I take it the OS thing is a typo unless it's something I've missed!

Haha, don't get me started mate... I'm picking up a load of shit on Saturday. Suicide Alley, Symphony Of Tourette and a load of other stuff.

I've got a couple of Thai cassettes on the way too. FML.

Or even better the sound of Nick Naysmith banging on the studio door ranting "Come on you motherfuckers, let me back in the band! You'll regret getting rid of me twats!!! I'll shove that trumpet up your arse Mooro, infact I could probably play the trumpet better than you with my arse! Come on cocksuckers, I AM the Manic Street Preachers, YOU'RE NOTHING WITHOUT ME!!!!NOTHING."

The explicit version refers to the video. In the normal video, James is sat on the toilet. In the unseen explicit version, he does a poo too.

if he had wiped, the only existing lyrics at the time to Autumnsong would have been destroyed forever.

Amazon also has the track lengths and clips up - and in the right order. That filthy version of Ocean Spray makes another appearance as well.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...5911802&sr=1-4

I'm not sure if these remastered tracks sound 'better' (from listening to 30 seconds of an MP3 on a website) but they've remembered to turn the volume up on the GT tracks, so that's a good start.
