Other Songs

  1. "Why Bother?"

"Why Bother" was originally considered for tracklist #1, though it is not included in the proposed sequence for either version of the album. However, a version of "You Won't Get with Me Tonight" ends with the bass intro for "Why Bother?", suggesting that the song might have followed it in tracklist #1, after Jonas tells Maria he won't sleep with her because she doesn't really love him and she only wants him for sex, he explains that "it's just sexual attraction" and that he will be heartbroken when she deserts him.

"You Won't Get with Me Tonight" can be found on the compilation album Gimme Skelter by Buddyhead Records. "Longtime Sunshine", "Blast Off!", "Who You Callin' Bitch?", "Dude, We're Finally Landing", and "Superfriend" were officially released on Alone - The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo. "Oh Jonas", "Please Remember" and "Come to My Pod" were officially released on Alone II: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo. "Oh No, This Is Not for Me", "She's Had a Girl", "What Is This I Find?" and "Now I Finally See" were officially released on Alone III: The Pinkerton Years as part of the "Suite From The Black Hole".

Formal studio versions of "Tired of Sex", "Getchoo", "No Other One", and "Why Bother?" are included on Pinkerton as the first four tracks. "I Just Threw Out the Love of My Dreams" and "Waiting on You" may be found on "The Good Life" single and "Devotion" may be found on the "El Scorcho" single.

    “Anyone who tries to keep track of what is happening in China is going to end up by wearing all the skin of his left ear from twirling around on it.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “Behold then Septimus Dodge returning to Dodge-town victorious. Not crowned with laurel, it is true, but wreathed in lists of things he has seen and sucked dry. Seen and sucked dry, you know: Venus de Milo, the Rhine or the Coloseum: swallowed like so many clams, and left the shells.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
