I think Space was referring to a live version which, technically, isn't on a 'proper' NMA album... in which case I'd like to nominate 'Vagabonds' (live version from Raw Melody Men... bloody obscure track, that one...  ;))

 Or, if you fancy going REALLY obscure, the live reggae version of 'Stupid Questions' from, I believe, the 10" vinyl version of, yes, 'Space'...

I'll go with 'Nothing touches' - always loved it.

It's an incredible song, i agree...maybe Justin's voice has never been so sensitive and moving than on this song, i think.

Also NMA songs not on albums that i like very much:

the price
1984
prison
courage
drummy B
marry the sea
turn away
brother
far better thing
rainy night 65
falling
rumour and rapture
one bullet

Hopefully Pol!

The Cause was the first thing that sprang to my mind, followed by a live version of Liberal Education on one of the "bootlegged" bootlegs that came with a 12" of something way back.. But when you stop and think about it and browse through the old vinyl there are so many contenders. White Coats was an EP release and not on T&C (It was included on the CD I think but not the vinyl)  the list just goes on ...

Trust
Is is a crime to believe in something different?

I meant what I said at the time that I said it

Anyone mentioned 'The charge' yet? One of my absolute favorite NMA songs.

Years ago they did a shanty live. I only heard them do it once and I think it was unaccompanied, but I would love to hear it again. Can anyone else remember it, or am I hallucinating?

It's on youtube. I think it's called "The Mermaid Song."
The studio version is on the "All Of This The Live Rarities" CD. It's not listed on the CD. It's a hidden track that plays after "Betcha."
It was also on one of the vinyl 12 inchers I bought years ago. Forgot which one.
