Japanese Bonus Track - Sideshow

I cant find Soul Sessions 2 version but I LOVE this original (and have for yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaars )

Step right up, hurry, hurry
Before the show begins, my friends
Stand in line, get your tickets
I hope you will attend

It'll only cost you fifty cents to see
What life has done to those like you and me

See the man with the broken heart
You'll see that he is sad
He's hurt so bad (So bad, so bad)
See the girl who has lost the only love she's ever had

There's got to be no sadder show to see
No doubt about it, satisfaction's guaranteed

So let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in
Can't afford to pass it by
Guaranteed to make you cry

Let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in
Can't afford to pass it by
Guaranteed to make you cry

See the man who's been cryin' for a million years
So many tears (So many tears)
See the girl who's collectin' broken hearts for souvenirs

It's more exciting than a one man band
The saddest little show in all the land

So let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in
Can't afford to pass it by
Guaranteed to make you cry

Let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in
Can't afford to pass it by
Guaranteed to make you cry

So let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in
Can't afford to pass it by
Guaranteed to make you cry

Let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in
Can't afford to pass it by
Guaranteed to make you cry

Let the side show begin
Hurry, hurry, step right on in

Did I miss a hidden track?

Here's a teaser of the song

I want it allllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Okay, now I'm a little miffed!
Why are most the bonus tracks only on the Japanese editions?

Apparently it's a condition that all Japanese releases have to have one extra song that the rest of the world doesn't. Why though, I'm not sure :S

I think you got that right Chris. It sure has been a trend. That is where my beloved "I get high" is hiding. For some (God only knows) reason seems to be banned in the USA! And that has me..

EMI being over sensitive again They did the same with Not real love and I wish

wow, it sounds amazing, I hope we'll get the full thing sometime.

Apparently it's cheaper for people in Japan to import the CD's from other countries so they use the bonus tracks to promote sales and boost their economy. Being a completest, I've dropped boatloads of cash (especially back in the 90's when there were a lot of CD singles) to get all the tracks for my favorite artists. I almost setup an iTunes account for Japan to get The Sound off LP1 but grabbed it elsewhere. I'm tempted to do it now again... Not really sure why this trend continues as most media is going digital now. Maybe from an old contractual agreement?

Speaking of the going digital deal, anyone know where I can get SS vol. 1 on vinyl at a reasonable price? I've seen vol. 2 for about $20 at various places

There are some on Amazon uk and ebay uk

LOVE IT!!!!

Thank you so much
