Factory Showroom Mix[edit]

This article is a rough draft

I love the album Factory Showroom, but I have some serious issues about how the album is organized, and what was chosen to put on an EP and what was chosen to go on the actual album. My main reason for hating it, is that the awesome song Sensurround was chosen to go on an EP. This mix is the way that I think Factory Showroom should be.

Anyway, I have never actually listened to this mix all put together, but I have heard all of the songs on either Factory Showroom or Clock Radio. When I actually listen, it's more than likely I will mix stuff around. I'll get back to you when I do that. =D

Anyway, the reasons for why the tracks are where they are: I am convinced that Sensurround would become a huge hit if it were actually on Factory Showroom.(as in, Birdhouse In Your Soul, Ana Ng, Don't Let's Start, Experimental Film, type popular). Since TMBG has a tendency of putting the best song at the very front of the album, that's where I put Sensurround. Then, I looked at other TMBG albums and I saw that usually energetic songs were put second, but usually not great songs. Hence, XTC Vs. Adam Ant. On The Drag is there because if it were anywhere else it would seem odd and out of place. Usually the fourth track is a good place to put a really good song, so New York City is there. Since I first listened to Factory Showroom I thought The Bells Are Ringing belonged at the beginning of the album and not the end. I put it as early as I could in the album, but the previous four songs were put there first because of the stated reasons. In my opinion Token Back To Brooklyn is isn't so demented it has to be hidden, as in the real Factory Showroom, but it seems good to get it out of the way. However I had to include enough good songs at the beginning so if someone new to TMBG wanted to listen they would know that less creepy songs were ahead. After that, James K. Polk's silly themes numb the creepiness of Token Back To Brooklyn.

After this very deliberate opening, I basically tried to make the rest of the album seem like more of a mixed bag than it actually is. I tried to alternate between slow and fast songs, and not clump all the good songs together. Finally, toward the end, I put two songs that seemed great for the end of an album, She Was A Hotel Detective and Your Own Worst Enemy. And really, that's it.

You might be wondering a couple things. Like, why is She Was A Hotel Detective on there, when it's not from the Factory Showroom era? What happened to How Can I Sing Like A Girl? Well, for question number one, because it's a great song. I think it's one of TMBG's best, and it deserves to be on a core album. It fits much better on Factory Showroom than John Henry anyway. For the second question, although How Can I Sing Like A Girl? is a great song, it's so long it disrupts the flow of any album. That's why it's not on the mix.

  • Nothing's Gonna Change My Clothes It had a great beat, and awesome lyrics like "All the people are so happy now, their heads are caving in"
  • 32 Footsteps The guy's voice in this is awesome, and I like the tune a lot
  • Everything Right Is Wrong Again I bet you I'm the only person in existence who likes this better than Puppet Head.
  • Don't Let's Start It's a classic. What can I say?
  • She's An Angel If the verses were more like the chorus it would be so awesome.

  • Put Your Hand Inside The Puppet Head It's Puppet Head. Yup.
