Is there just one version of this song? I know it was on The X Files CD and on SSMVGD .. are both these versions the same?

It was on Oddballs and the X-files, but I assume that's why you neverminded the question. But I just wanted to clear that up in case someone wanders in this topic and thinks it's on SSMVGD and then they freak out and think they have the wrong SSMVGD.

| How do we know there's a BBC version, for the sake of my morbidly obsessive curiosity and the fact that Man of Steel is one of my favourite FB songs, which is a pretty impressive compliment. |

There is also a DBS version of this song.
I recorded it at Derek's Bedroom Studio in Feb 2003. I threw together an acoustic version with a couple guitars, some piano, and a bass. I might post it someday on the FTP, but not as part of the tribute album of course.

| Wow, I'd like to hear that whole session. I do have I Need Peace (titled "Close Your Eyes"), Modern Age, Everyone Is Wrong...I think I have Skeleton Man as well. Don't have the rest. The quality is kinda crummy too. |

yeah, those early 96 sessions are great! (one is Peel, one is Radcliffe). I love that little jam they do right after Jumping Bean.. sounds kinda like an alternate take of Modern Age maybe? It's just a few seconds long but man I love it.
And FYI, as was mentioned by Harris a while back, Everyone is Wrong is a song written by Lyle.. possibly the only original song Frank's played that he didn't write. ..does that make any sense? you know what i mean.
And back to Man of Steel.. yeah the Oddballs version is a slightly different mix than the X Files comp.
If you REALLY want to go into the history of the song, back in '93 Frank jammed a bit of the song at an acoustic session, just instrumentally, and the DJ guy sang some words over it. |
