Dan #2 Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Well, it's come to my attention there was a fourth B-Side from WLRARR. i never even knew City of Millions existed until this morning!! Anyone know why it's so unpopular? does it suck? how come the lyrics aren't in the Lyrics Section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavalier_eternal Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 i haven't heard a single b-side from wlrrr. somebody, please save me. i am severely lacking b-sides and demos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no yu begin wher i end Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 I believe that "Dusk", "Can't Get Shot In The Back If You Don't Run" and "Annabelle" can all be found in the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a girl called catastrophe Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 are you sure that it was a b-side from WLRRR? because when i went to sound check in montreal during the avalanche tour, he played it there, but i guess that doesnt necessarily mean that it was a b-side from avalanche... does anyone have a copy of this, or even the lyrics for it? i have been searching everywhere for it.

Broken Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 What the shit are you all talking about? City Of Millions? Do you mean Big City Life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan #2 Posted December 24, 2004 Author Share Posted December 24, 2004 What the shit are you all talking about? City Of Millions? Do you mean Big City Life? Possibly, that makes a lot of sense actually look here, a few lines down it says Cuts/BSides, and lists City of Millions. http://www.nearfantastica.com/albums/wlrrr/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a girl called catastrophe Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 all i can remember about the song was that it was a slow song, and the chorus had "city of millions" in it (obviously). it isnt big city life, but a totally different song.

Bladeso Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 I belive that it was played in calgary once and I quoted saying "what is this now?" If anyone does come across it sent it to crusader (anton) so I can buy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghetto rocker princess Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 i don't think that city of millions and empty road are the same song though....city of millions was really really slow...empty road has a BIT of an upbeatness to it...at the montreal sound check it sounded different at least...but who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladeso Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I have to agree I belive that there is enough force behind it that people belive that it is two different songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWJeeves Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 It's a different song and it was only played lived once or twice. That's what Rich told me ages ago. It was cut, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scot Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 i talked to matt outside the drink during the avalnche tour when they first played it, and he told me that they were calling it city of millions until the album came out when they were going to rename it empty road.

HoboFactory Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Such contrasting titles for one song, City of Millions, and Empty Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan #2 Posted December 28, 2004 Author Share Posted December 28, 2004 hmm, maybe a mod should change the list of bsides in WLRARR if it's only Empty Road.. i must admit, i'm very disapointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
