Chills

[whitepepper]

Rhapsody Radio has Chills as an extra track off of Z...great tune

[Funknik]

Yep...Real is selling Z with "chills" as the extra track (and me without a PC  :-[) and itunes gives away "oxen" and we'll have to wait for the "off the record" import single to get 'em both....where's the justice?  ;)

[JacketGal]

I know that kinda sucks, the pre-order could have come with more bonus songs but alas....I slapped down the 99 cents and bought it and it's REALLY good!

Can you buy just Oxen off of iTunes?  

[Funknik]

no you must buy the whole record to get "oxen".  Can you buy just "Chills" on Rhopsody?  

[JacketGal]

Yes, you can buy just Chills. Well that blows, I guess we have to wait for Oxen!

[TheLink]

did they do "chills" in the studio or is it the old version from the demos disc from "At Dawn?"  just wondering cause it looked like they were considering putting it on the new album.

[whothrewthecake]

man i really want to hear this song. anything by jim called chills is sure to give me them.

[Funknik]

Rest assured that this is a fresh, shiny, new 'Z' outtake very much on par with the rest of that record....tripped out bliss.

just heard it on Rhapsody....it's ok...definitely b-side material...nothin' to lose sleep over.

Man, the new version is VERY different from the original demos version.  They gave it a "Heartbreakin Man" feel.  this continues to be one of my favorite jacket tunes of all-time.  It's cool to have this alternate version.  What do the rest of you think?  I'm interested to hear the opinions of those who are and are not familiar with the original version.

I don't have the original & like the new version a lot.

On my CD there is a short break between Dondante & Chills, longer than usual, as if to point out that this is a bonus track not intended as part of the original concept of Z.

[tomEisenbraun]

yes, it definitely belongs in the same category as X-Mas Curtain. I love it. The version I'm used to is the old lofi At Dawn b-side, which wasn't too impressivve and long on the tooth, and then I heard this version and cracked up laughing. I love it. Love love love it. It's hilarious. I love these guys. But not only is it hilarious, it's an aweosme song too. I love this band for everything they are worth.

The 30 seconds of silence at the end of Dondante is on all copies....it's not to separate the bonus track....it's probably to honor Jim's dead friend who the song is supposedly about.

[dragonboy]

Didn't know that - thanks  :)

my vinyl copy of Z has yet to come in the mail, as soon as it does, i'll listen to it.

I had heard that "A Wonderful Man" was about his friend but I was thinking it seems Don Donte could also be about him.

I got my vinyl the day before the cd, so awesome. Hearing new stuff in analog and !loud! really kicks ass. Dondante had me worried ;) about the neighbors tho. Chills is a cool track too, I need some more listens - damn work!

[TheLink]

i really want to hear this but it ain't on my disc.  anyone have it is mp3?  i would love to have it emailed to me. ;)

Wow, a new and reworked version of 'Chills'! I'd love to hear that one. Sadly, my vinyl store doesn't have Z yet, so I went and bought the CD 'cause I didn't want to wait. Will it also be on the 'Off the record' single?

nope, the off the record single has How Could I Know on it.  The Japanese import also has Chills though.
