You're missing Silence Be Heard from the Mistaken Identity era, Right Here In My Heart and Together We Are One from the DELTA era, Waiting for Forever from CotU, and a few collabs (Ain't No Mountain High Enough, Live! Together and Stepping Out with My Baby)
Thanks! Weirdly Silence Be Heard and Waiting for Forever are on the playlist for me. I've intentionally left Right There in my Heart off as it's on the Delta album (on Spotify) ans Together We Are One is in my Delta Singles playlist. Unfortunately none of those collabs are on my Spotify. Thanks for your help! Looks like I have everything I can then.
Silence Be Heard and one of the other Mistaken Identity B-Sides were on some weird American version of Mistaken Identity awhile back. The original Mistaken Identity was only uploaded onto American iTunes and streaming either last year or earlier this year.
It's so great to have all of these B-Sides in proper iTunes format. It's caused me to rediscover Fortune and Love and Hear Me Calling
Those 7th Heaven remixes of Sitting On Top Of The World might be basic as hell but they slap. We love a cheap poppers o'clock remix in our house!
I've been bingeing her B-sides as one big album on shuffle since they were all put in iTunes and I've discovered or rediscovered so many gems. She could literally have had two amazing complete albums out of these. By the way, was Here I Am always such a bop?
Going through serious lockdown low so gorging Delta, especially these THREE beauties - one when she ascended the throne; another a rightful top 20 UK Hit; and another which touches this ageing gay more than ever before. (any decent live ones as can't bear Anniversary version)
Is there a list anywhere of all Deltas rare songs? I want to make sure I have them all. I recently downloaded the score - which is an interesting track that I didn’t know she had done!
The Score completely passed me by at the time too, only discovered it after the fact. Chronologically: Love (Leaked demo that I believe was attributed to a pre-I Don't Care Delta) I Don't Care Here I Am (I Don't Care b-side) Hear Me Calling (Lost Without You b-side) Lost for Words (Innocent Eyes b-side) Right There Waiting (Not Me, Not I b-side) Visualise (Out of the Blue b-side) Beautiful Madness (Out of the Blue b-side) Nobody Listened (Mistaken Identity region-specific bonus track) Silence Be Heard (Mistaken Identity b-side) How a Dream Looks (Mistaken Identity b-side) Turn You Away (Almost Here b-side) The Riddle (A Little Too Late b-side) If I Forget (A Little Too Late b-side) Flawed (Innocent Eyes Japanese Edition) Never Fades Away (Innocent Eyes Japanese Edition) Breathe In, Breathe Out (In This Life b-side) Take Me Home (In This Life b-side) Fortune and Love (Believe Again b-side) Fever (Believe Again b-side) Unsure (Believe Again b-side) Right Here in My Heart (Delta iTunes Bonus Track) Uncovered (Sitting on Top of the World b-side) Waiting for Forever (Dancing With a Broken Heart b-side) Daughter (Wish You Were Here b-side) Rise (Wish You Were Here b-side) Alcohol (Child of the Universe iTunes Bonus Track) No Communication (Child of the Universe iTunes Bonus Track) Love Thy Will Be Done (Charity Single) Stay (Love Thy Will Be Done b-side) You & You Alone (The River b-side) Morse Code (Wings of the Wild Digital Bonus Track/Website Download) The Score Welcome to Earth (Commonwealth Games Single) Let It Rain (Charity Single) Keep Climbing (Single/Paralyzed b-side) Back in 84 (Paralyzed b-side) This does not include widely-acknowledged one off singles like Together We Are One, Heart Hypnotic, Think About You and the recently released Solid Gold. I think Not Me, Not I had Happy Xmas (War Is Over) as a b-side as well but I never acquired it/cared to track it down. Seeing them all listed out like this is staggering. What a queen!
There’s also Four Short Words, which I only found out about after it was recently added to the Out of the Blue EP. It was originally a Pepsi track apparently. Not Me Not I also had Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas as a bside.
Wait, did I miss something? Has she actually said that Solid Gold won't be on the album (when it arrives 5 years from now?)
On the topic of rare Delta songs, I always loved this snippet. As far as I know, we never got the full thing?
So, Delta’s insta story encapsulates the epic year she’s had. We might not have the album... yet... but it’s been a pretty good year to be a fan. What are your Delta highlights from this year?
'In My Own Time' has remained my favourite Delta track. Something about it always makes me emotional.
Ooh a new book (and I guess the album) coming 25th March https://www.sanity.com.au/products/2615872/Bridge-Over-Troubled-Dreams
