Favorite B-Sides

[~wavephorm]

In an offshoot from my Limited Editions topic, how bout we list our all time favourite B-Side songs. These songs must be available only on a single, or limited edition version of an album (not an EP), and not a remix of an album track. Here's a few that stand out for me:

My #1 all time fav is Project Pitchfork 'Teardrop' from the I Live Your Dream single. Actually there was a whole pile of really good b-sides from the Eon:Eon album, heck they're better than a lot of the tracks on the album... Sin, Life Command, Gravitaion Zero. I guess En Garde would also qualify a b-side.

Delerium - Inner Sanctum (from Poem)
Echo Image - Neverending Story (from Skulk single, what a great remake!! it makes me smile every time I listen to it)
VNV Nation - Further (one their best songs), also 'Radius ^2', and 'Tempest'
Front Line Assembly - Hydrogen (Circuitry single), also Epidemic and Plasticity
Covenant - Fuzzy Logic (from the domestic USoM?, my copy doesn't have it :(, and this song is almost worthwhile to buy a second copy of the album for)
Neuroticfish - Velocity N2 (from Les chansons.. LE)

My favorites are ...

VNV Nation Left Behind
Iris Everybody is Life
Anything Box Radio Static

Depeche Mode Sibeling
The Nine Burn You Down (Original Version)

This thread again huh? heh.
Mine would have to be all of the Violater era DM single b-sides. Pretty much all of them. Happiest Girl, Dangerous, but especially "Sea of Sin".
That being my favorite DM song of all time.

Oh yeah WaveForm...don't sweat it. I didn't mean that in a bad way. Just some of us ol' timers here see some threads come and go..and come back again. It's fine. If we didn't want to read/post it, we wouldn't .... so I think most of us here don't mind. :)
