I have no particular fondness for No Matter What either, but it sold in the bucket loads. And although you have a strong argument about things not being 100% Jim, he still did have an hand in writing the song and it's an excellent example of his diversity.

Nowhere Fast isn't homeless as it's on Meats Bad Attitude album. Tonight definitely need to be on an anthology album because it's so fucking good, plus it's a link to Tanz der Vampire.
I added Taylor Dayne's Original Sin because she has her own following and she did a pretty awesome job with the song. Pandora's Box has absolutely NO following whatsoever except for the Steinfans really who know about it.
Like I said originally. It's important to show the diversity of artists Jim has worked with and make it a seller. So scarifices have to be made between wants and needs.
