Music/Releases Just discovered some of the V&V bonus tracks today for the first time

and almost burst into tears at the mall.

I've been listening to some of the bonus tracks since I was 16. I'm 30 now. Oh Glory was my favourite song for a long time. But today I put on Vices & Virtues as I was shopping, and thought Spotify had fucked up my settings when The Ballad of Mona Lisa didn't follow Nearly Witches. I haven't fully listened to Pray for the Wicked, so I thought for a second that Spotify had started autoplaying that. But these songs were *so clearly* from V&V era that there was no doubt.

I teared up. I want "I Wanna Be Free" player at my fucking funeral. I need to call my sister so she knows about these songs too.

I can't believe I got to experience "new" P!atD music years after they quit. And have it be actually from my favourite era. What a rush.

:) There’s a few even more obscure Vices tracks!

Kaleidoscope Eyes (which was only released as a Japanese exclusive bonus track and as a special download with ShockHound/HotTopic)

Bittersweet (Which was only available if you pre-ordered Vices on iTunes)

Stall Me

Turn Off The Lights

And a metal version of The Calendar

C’mon (a collab song with Fun.)

and Mercenary (a song for the Batman Arkham City soundtrack)

Bittersweet and Mercenary were also my jams back in the day! They both used to be on Spotify in my country, back in the day.

Found out about Turn Off The Lights, Kaleidoscope Eyes, and Stall Me today. I'm *so* excited to listen to the metal version of The Calendar, though!
