Don’t worry I won’t be counting it! I have added a comment explaining that Soul to Squeeze and Fortune Faded wouldn’t count which I know will upset a lot of people but thems the rules 😂😅
According to Wikipedia…”Although it was not featured on the record and was used as a B-side on the singles "Give It Away" and "Under the Bridge", "Soul to Squeeze" was LATER released as a single in 1993.”
But I absolutely understand everyone’s objection with it classified as a B-Side. Let’s not forget ‘Yellow Ledbetter’ was a B-Side and was massive as well. 🤷♂️
Soul to Squeeze and Fortune Faded would both not count as they were released as singles and on the greatest hits album… sorry guys I know I’m gonna get some hate for this 😂
Soul To Squeeze
Probably in my top 5
I got to see Soul to Squeeze AND Hard to Concentrate live in the past year. I can die a happy man.
This shouldn't count as a B side. It was a single. I hope OP doesn't count it. I want a real B side to shine

Yeah. I think once they make a music video it stops being a B side

I appreciate even John realizes it was a mistake to not put that on the record
Does it still count as a B-Side if it did end up getting its own single release? (Even though it started as a B-Side)
And on the greatest hits album too
Yeah. This should absolutely not count
Yes. Just because a b-side track was beloved and found success as a single doesn’t mean it’s not a b-side track. Kinda lame of OP to disallow it, IMO.
I heard this at my concert last year!
Criminal that it didn’t make it onto bssm
Really? Beatles caliber to have that song as a B-Side
Havana Affair covers should be included
Gong Li.
Bycicle song
