While we're on the subject, here are a few Travis b-sides. If you guys had to make a Travis version of "The Masterplan", what b-sides would be on it? Let's stick to 11-12 tracks. Very curious.

I would say...
Twenty (from All I Want to Do is Rock) Unbelievers (from Happy) Mother (from Happy) Standing on My Own (from Tied to the 90s) Beautiful Bird (from More Than Us) Green Behind the Ears (from Writing to Reach You) Be My Baby (Ronnettes cover, from Driftwood) River (Joni Mitchell cover, from Turn) Beautiful (from Sing) Central Station (from Flowers in the Window) I Don't Mean to Get High (from Beautiful Occupation) My Last Chance (from My Eyes)
That's a good overview too, covers their (almost) entire career. You may also be interested in their cover of Lennon's Gimme Some Truth. There's also a live version of All I Want to Do Is Rock featuring Noel.

Good question, they have a ton of B-sides, too. I'd go with 1. Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah 2. Definition Of Wrong 3. The Urge For Going 4. Standing On My Own 5. Enemy 6. Ballad Of J. Smith 7. Chances 8. ...Baby One More Time 9. Know Nothing 10. Lovely Rita (was it a B-side btw? From the Sgt Peppers' Anniversary session) 11. Ring Out The Bell 12. River

River Village Man Ring Out The Bell You Don't Know What I'm Like Ancient Train I Don't Mean To Get High Urge For Going Enemy The Weight Beautiful Twenty
That's with a pretty limited pool to go from. I only own maybe a dozen of the singles. Still working on collecting the rest. Dying just to hear the b-sides ffs. Cool to see some other opinions.
Also, woke up to the new video today:

Never looked into their b-sides in all honesty, just have their albums. Moving's a good tune though, cool video. Not as good as Where You Stand personally but I love that tune to bits.

I think they've aged considerably in the five years since their last album! Seems like yesterday I was buying Ode To J Smith album along with Dig Out Your Soul - insane. Makes me wonder whether I've aged much since then! They must be all about 40 now?

They have definitely aged a bit over the last decade. It suits them though.
