Prefer?

95% of the songs I posted are songs most people know/have heard (except for Rain, Happiness Is A Warm Gun and Tomorrow Never Know but I feel they are essential neverthless). Thats my purpose. These are not necesserly my favourite songs.

P.S. I Call Your Name can stay forgotten as far as Im concern.

Must I think that you are not interested in stuff like the new one of the Anthology albums... if songs like "I Call Your Name can stay forgotten"?... why an Anthology rescuing odd and old songs, no?

Ahh.. I just dont think I Call Your Name is a good song. And of course, that song is on Past Masters Vol.1, released 1988 I believe.

"Forgotten" ... and of course it has been released,... like the rest. The Anthology comment was because you said it "can stay forgotten".

Can you believe me when I say I knew and I was thinking about tell you something like "I forgive you" or "let's forget it" but I didn't want to sound arrogant or pretentious? Sorry for all that.  ;)

I am right about that it was the guys themselves who chose the songs on the Red and Blue album, yes?

I'm not 100% sure but I'd say no: no the guys nor Sir George. EMI was. I think it makes sense to some choices.
I don't think they would choose:
Eight Days A Week, Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da or Old Brown Shoe
instead of: Dear Prudence, Blackbird or Across The Universe for example.
