Greatest Hits??

Greatest Hits??
Average: 5 (2 votes)

Eventually throughout the course of a band's career, they make a "Greatest Hits" album. When do you think it will come out and what songs do you think should be included. Here's my prediction:

They'll probably put together a two disc greatest hits album sometime before 2012 (before the world comes screeching to a halt) and it will contain the following songs:

Disc 1:

- Redefine
- A Certain Shade of Green
- Vitamin
- Glass
- Summer Romance (Anti-Gravity Love Song)
- Pardon Me
- Drive
- Stellar
- The Warmth
- Nice To Know You
- Wish You Were Here

Disc 2:

- Echo
- Are You In?
- Aqueous Transmission
- Megalomaniac
- Talk Shows on Mute
- Pistola
- Here In My Room
- Dig
- Anna Molly
- Love Hurts
- Oil & Water
- Paper Shoes

I'm not hating on any album, I just think these are the ones that are going to make the cut

What about you??

The greatest hits would probably include their singles and stuff
so;
Take Me To Your Leader
A Certain Shade of Green
Pardon Me
Stellar
Drive
Wish You Were Here
Nice To Know You
Warning
Circles
Are You In?
Megalomaniac
Talk Shows On Mute
Make A Move
Anna Molly
Dig
Love Hurts
Oil & Water

and then ....

Favourite Things
Pistola
Rogues

to make it up to a nice round 20 tracks
maybe put a track or too of a new album instead of Take Me To Your Leader
we all know how they're forgetting the older tracks in newer shows ...

\oo/

I only listed Make a Move b/c it was a single even though it was not on an Incubus cd. I wouldn't list Look Alive b/c it is not a single.

"On the tip of my tongue and offense it is poised and rearing
My intention a bullet my body a trigger finger."

You are right. Anyway I think Look Alive need to be placed. Like "Make A Move", it is nice that there is another song that does not belong to the CD.

By new song, I meant an unreleased song. Look Alive has already been released and since we are discussing something that may happen in the future, it won't even qualify as a new song then.

"You Are Stellar Mr. Boyd"

"It's Time We Met & Made A Mess"

Look Alive may be the new song that integrates. Bye.

Not that I want it to happen but.... if it did, the first thing you need to do is automatically include all of their singles. That is typically what Greatest Hits albums are made of. Second, add at least one new song b/c that seems to be what every artist does on Greatest Hits cds now (how can it be a Greatest hit if it hasn't been released before, are you predicting it will be well received?). That already brings the song count to 18 which is more than is on a typical Incubus CD and does not include any future singles from future albums, so it probably will be a double disc set.

Take Me To Your Leader
A Certain Shade of Green
Pardon Me
Stellar
Drive
Wish You Were Here
Warning
Nice To Know You
Circles
Are You In?
Megalomaniac
Talk Shows on Mute
Make a Move
Anna Molly
Dig
Love Hurts
Oil and Water
Insert new Song Here

Is everyone happy that I played along?

I think a greatest hits album happens years after they have stopped writing new songs or can't write new songs and also not touring anymore. And need to generate some money or interest. I wouldn't say it would never happen though. You never know. I would think when their in their 50s or 60s maybe.
but I think greatest hits are usually the ones that made it as a single
not for sure don't quote me.

I'm not thinking it's a way of selling out. It just gives their fan base what it wants... I personally own every Incubus CD and DVD released so I could always make my own. I'm just thinking logistically, profitable (for the band) and yet another Incubus thing for me to scoop up =)

Opinions are free to be posted on the forum, Rainbowswirl is just as entitled to be completely anti - Greatest Hits as (s)he wants to be...

I just think it's a definate possibility

I'm not. Once again you're taking everything I say way too seriously. i am entitled to my opinion just as much as you are.

"You Are Stellar Mr. Boyd"

"It's Time We Met & Made A Mess"

I know everyone is having fun. If you can list what songs you would like on their greatest hits cd, then I can say that I hope to god they never release one.

For everything you've given me."

I do not think need an album of greatest hits. But these songs that I wrote songs that were most successful in each CD, although there are others that I like more. Bye.

well...

i just wrote my favorite songs. and i love AZWETHINKWEIZ .

I DON'T CARE IF THEY CAN NOT PLAY IT ANYMORE...

OR IF THEY WON'T EVER RELEASE A G.T CD !

WE ARE JUST HAVING FUN !!

"It's Time We Met & Made A Mess"

Azwethinkweiz will never be on a greatest hits album, b/c the band claims to not even know how to play it anymore. If it were to be on a greatest hits album, then they would be expected to play it live.

I really hope that Incubus does not release a greatest hits album, EVER! I hope they take the route that Cake took and say that a greatest hits album takes away from the integrity of the album the songs originally came from and is a sign of selling out.
