Your own Jesu compilation

A sort of ‘best of’ thing that I call ‘Too Much Time On My Hands’.

(limited to 2CD’s worth (under 70 mins both discs)

Disc 1:

  1. Conqueror
  2. Star
  3. Walk on Water
  4. Stanlow
  5. Brighteyes
  6. Friends are Evil
  7. Weightless & Horizontal
  8. Silver

Disc 2:

  1. Farewell
  2. Transfigure
  3. We All Faulter
  4. Dead Eyes
  5. Man/Woman
  6. Old Year
  7. Blind & Faithless
  8. Mother Earth
  9. Guardian Angel

I was gonna rant a bit, but then I realized you only have 3 jesu releases. S/T, Conqueror & Silver is not all they have out.

Unfamiliar with the ‘Heart Ache’, ‘Sun Down/Sun Rise’ EPs & ‘Pale Sketches’. Im familiar with the rest of their catalogue. Ive included some from the Eluvium split EP (basically same as ‘Why Are Not Perfect’). The other split EPs Ive found unimpressive and no inclusions from ‘Lifeline’ either.

Im interested in what other fans of Jesu would mould into a compilation and how they would position the selected songs.

Give me a day to set up a CD set and I’ll let you know. I haven’t made a “Best Of” comp yet.

Peace.

I guess that’s what I’m saying, you haven’t even heard a full LP + 2 very long EPs worth of material. Along with all the Alternative/remix/covers versions:

Silver (Original Beats)
Wolves (Original Mix)
Decide (Alternate Storm Comin’ On w/o Jarboe)
Lifeline (Alternative Version)
Farewell (Alternative Version)
Blind & Faithless (Alternative Version)
Why Are We Not Perfect (Alternative Version)
Your Path To Divinity (Endless Path)
Friends Are Evil (Highest Throne)
Your Path To Divinity (WTUL remix)
Chapter 24 (Syd Barret Tribute)
The Funeral Party (The Cure Tribute)

I find it a bit presumptious to create a ‘best of’ ANYTHING w/o having access to all of it. But, it’s your time. Carry On.

Silver (Original Beats)
Wolves (Original Mix)
Farewell (Alternative Version)
Blind & Faithless (Alternative Version)
Why Are We Not Perfect (Alternative Version)
Chapter 24 (Syd Barret Tribute)

Ive heard these songs and do not consider them better than the songs ive chosen. The Pink Floyd cover was very disappointing.

Am currently delving into ‘Heart Ache’ and, though impressive (esp. Heart Ache), would not include the 2 songs in a best of list as the songs are simply too long for the format intended.

P.S. Its not just about my list, my aim was to have other prongers suggest lists to compare & contrast and so forth.

Yeah I’d add Heartache - possibly a Radio edit version of it.

Great song to listen to when blazed.

My comp would be simple…

Ruined.

Ruined.

FUCK YEAH.

Though the Heartache EP is the only Jesu release I’ve listened to fully thus far, “Ruined” is one of the most epic things I’ve heard in my life.

“RISE! ROCK!”

Actually, with the newly released vinyl version of Heart Ache the lyrics were printed in it. He’s actually saying “Right. Wrong.”

Peace!

Well, damn. “Right, wrong” just isn’t as fun to chant. [cool]
