I have a bunch of PSB songs on my gym iPod and I think like 2/3rds of them are B-sides

I attempted to explain the appeal of PSB to someone recently with... "Your Funny Uncle", of all things! I think we'd been talking about the early AIDS era or something. Anyway, the response was "it's a bit depressing, innit." Not sure they even got to the end. Grrr.

Was That What It Was?, One of the Crowd, It Must Be Obvious and Music for Boys are all in the top half of Alternative tracks for me

Do I Have To? is straight up one of their best songs and one of the best B-sides ever. It does feel a little rushed production wise though. I often wonder what it'd sound like on Introspective with a luxurious big-budget makeover. Maybe like this

Agree with Tennant that the middle 'faffs around' a bit, but it's one of their most devastating ballads.
