Ain't that the truth! Itz time to hang it up and become a rabbi. :O

Not heard that ditty, or can't remember it. Good band, aye.
Pretty sure Nobody Loves Us was recorded some time after the album of that year.
D'you know Failure with Girls by the Macc Lads; they were banned from Yank-land.
Since around 1986 - if you buy the vinyl you're in fact listening to the CD master, right? Sort of all bollocks, really.

1) You're not a pirate
2) Ever hear of XTC's "Mermaid Smiled"? It was on "Skylarking" and after a short pressing run was bumped off the album when the B-Side "Dear God" became an unexpected hit. "Mermaid Smiled" became part of a "B-Side" compilation called "Rag and Bone Buffet". So, contrary to what you might believe, it *is* possible.
3) Vinyl is still out there, but it isn't the premiere media.

Me wishes me had a quid for every time someone's said a B-side shoulda been the A, when it just wasn't possible.
Will have to check the Maladjusted history books.
Vinyl's still coming out, right? Probably outlive CD - happily.
Jolly good luck to you.

The fact of the matter is that post-vinyl era "B-Sides" are comprised of songs that didn't make the cut on an album's release list. The "B" stands for "bonus"...something that wouldn't be possible without them having been recorded beforehand.
So sorry to have spoiled your "being a dick for being a dick's sake" moment.
-
Me is sorry to shatter your illusions, but B-sides are more often than not recorded AFTER the album is pressed.
Good day to you.
Morrissey threw away songs that would be A-Sides to 98% of the artists out there now.

Ok, so I was crying while listening to this song. Just when I started to cry he sang "Me with a talent for making you cry" Or something like that O-o
