If the Stones included Under The Radar and Don't Wanna Go Home on A Bigger Bang, so it would have 18 songs, where would they put them? Or where would you put them, but... don't leave other songs off, there must be 18 of them (cause, everyone likes other songs on this one!)

My idea:

-We Don't Wanna Go Home: at #14, right between Sweet Neocon and Look What The Cat Dragged In
-Under The Radar: #17, between Driving Too Fast and Infamy...

But I am not really sure with this... just a first impression!

By the way: These two new songs just rock!!!

.... Hrm...

I personally would put them at the end. Jagger/Richards ordered the songs on ABB in a specific way, so I wouldn't like to mess with that.

Anybody tried Radar as first song, then rough justice?
It's cool as opening track.

I think Radar would be a good album closer

Micawber,

I've done that and I think it works surprisingly well, and I put We Don't Want To Go Home at the end, and that works pretty well there, too.

has anyone else noticed that the CD actually goes to a "track 18" on a player? i.e. it sits on track 18 and then you have to move it forward to go to track 1 after infamy is done.

For me the only closer I can think of is This Place Is Empty.

I cut thebiggerthebetterthebigbamboom down to 15 tracks, and left out IWTL, which I find really boring, SOL as the worst song, and Infamy, which for me is only kind of a demo, but no song. It's better live.

Then I arranged a new order of songs, because I always loved the Tattoo You way, one fast side, one slow side.

1. Radar
2. Justice
3. Beauty
4. Oh No
5. Driving Too Fast
6. She saw me coming
7. We don't wanna go home
8. Cat dragged in
9. Neo Con
10. Back of my hand
11. Let me down
12. Rain
13. Mistake
14. Laugh
15. This place

What a hell of an album. I think it's a modern classic comparable to their great efforts like Exile. In ten years and more in advance I'm sure everyone will think of it in that way.

I'll have to do some pondering about this - I'll fit these two into my already re-arranged Better Bang (five ABB tunes off, three from 40L on). Need to burn this soon in time for road trip tomorrow to Fresno.

I can imagine yes, I thought of that also.
