realDonaldTrump Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Just found out “Extraordinary Girl” was supposed to be called “Radio Baghdad”, thought that was really cool and for some reason it would make me like the song better (not sure why). Any other cases where the original song title is better than the original or worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how they could have mixed up the title with the original song (eventually called Do Da Da)? The original story I heard/read was that they decided last minute to add the song (now known as Stuck With Me) on the album but the Stuck With Me title (that was originally meant for the Do Da Da song) was already printed on the back cover. But I'm glad to finally find out what the original title was for that Alright song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael1989 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Worry Rock was originally titled "Fucked Without a Kiss Again" Jk. But that would have been a cool title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the right, you can see both "Alright" and "Doo Da Da" listed. So I don't know how "Stuck With Me" got assigned to the wrong song. The story must not be entirely correct.

Yosuke Hanamura Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 If that did happen, what would’ve stopped Reprise from just recalling the misprinted copies, and send out corrected ones? (Although I will say that “Alright” is a fitting title for Stuck with Me, since it’s said a bunch in the song.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteTim Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I always heard the titles for Stuck With Me (Insomniac) and Do Da Da (Shenanigans) were mistitled on the master reels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it sure is interesting that there is no mention of Stuck With Me on that list. So that story might just be a hoax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallasthemenace Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 the thing im most interested in, is seeing 'you lied' being played during the insomniac sessions. id love to hear those tapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killjoy From Detroit Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Don't know if this fits in this thread but Insomniac was originally called Jesus Christ Supermarket and I'm angry at the fact that they changed it. I mean, Insomniac is a really good title for the album, but c'mon, don't tell me you wouldn't have liked an album called Jesus Christ Supermarket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The released version of You Lied (the only version) IS from the Insomniac session. It just wasn’t released until Nimrod. But if you look at the credits, it’s engineered by Kevin Army and mixed by Jerry Finn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
