ATS - Alternate Tracklisting

[Braininator]

Suggest an alternate track order for "A Thousand Suns".

 

My version:

 

The Requiem

The Radiance

Burning In The Skies

Empty Spaces

When They Come For Me

Robot Boy

Jornada Del Muerto

Waiting For The End

The Messenger

Wretches And Kings

Wisdom, Justice, And Love

Blackout

Iridescent

Fallout

The Catalyst

 

Without breaking the song transitions, there's not a lot of movement that can be made. Basically, I feel that Blackout needs to be a part of the build up to the end of the album, and that The Catalyst should be the closing track.

[sotrix]

With no regard to transitions:

 

The Requiem

Waiting for the End

Blackout

Wretches and Kings

Burning in the Skies

Wisdom Justice and Love

Iridescent

Robot Boy

The Catalyst

[rsw2010]

The Requiem+The Radiance

Burning in the Skies+Empty Spaces

When They Come For Me

Robot Boy

Jornada Del Muerto

Waiting For The End

Blackout

Wretches and Kings

Fallout

The Catalyst

Wisdom, Justice, and Love

Iridescent

 

And yes, I left out The Messenger. It completly killed the album (not in a good way) Iridescent is a much better ending song. It feels like TLTGYA

[leftshoe18]

I really don't think the tracklist can get any better than it currently is. The only thing I'd consider changing is removing The Messenger since it doesn't fit much with the musical component of the album.

[FORTsunrise]

You guys are going to think I'm nuts.

 

The Requiem+The Radiance

Burning In The Skies

When They Come For Me

Robot Boy

New Divide

Jornada Del Muerto

Waiting For The End

Blackout

Wretches And Kings

Not Alone

Iridescent

Fallout

The Catalyst

The Messenger

 

EDIT: Actually I'd have Jornada Del Muerto and Fallout as well.

+1 That, to me, is the only "bad" song on the album, mainly due to Chester's vocal delivery. I'm sure they could've had a number of soft/accoustic songs that would've been better.

I wouldn't change it. I think it fits best the way it is.

Yeah, I just put the interludes and songs together. Journada Del Muerto is too awesome to go with Robot Boy

 

I'd also rename The Catalyst, A Thousand Suns. Don't know why, just thought it would work.

I think it should be:

1. "The Requiem"

2. "The Radiance"

3. "Burning in the Skies"

4. "Empty Spaces"

5. "When They Come for Me"

6. "Robot Boy"

7. "Jornada del Muerto"

8. "Waiting for the End"

9. "Blackout"

10. "Wretches and Kings"

11. "Wisdom, Justice, and Love"

12. "Iridescent"

13. "Fallout"

14. "The Catalyst"

15. "The Messenger"

[Bliss]

1. The requim

2. The Radiance

3. Burning in the Skies

4. Empty Spaces

5. When They Come For Me

6. New Full Song Here (a different song instead of robot boy)

7. New Full Song Here

8. Waiting For the End

9. Blackout

10. Wretches and Kings

11. New Full Song Here

12. Iridescent

13. New Full Song Here

14. The Catalyst

15. Add in New Divide

16. The Messenger

17. Blackbirds (not as a bonus track)

 

So basically replace robot boy with a new song, replace the interludes (besides the requim, the radiance, and empty spaces) with new full songs, and add new divide on the album, and make blackbirds not a bonus song but on the normal album

Here's an alternate take on the tracklist inspired by some live alterations and adding in I Have Not Begun and then some simple rearranging:

 

1. The Requiem

2. The Radiance (with Mario Savio speech)

3. Wretches and Kings

4. Fallout

5. The Catalyst

6. Empty Spaces

7. When They Come For Me

8. Robot Boy

9. The Radiance 2.0

10. Burning in the Skies

11. Jornada Del Muerto

12. Waiting for the End

13. Blackout

14. I Have Not Begun

15. Wisdom, Justice, and Love

16. Iridescent

17. The Messenger (with extended drum and acapella outro)

 

I've already remixed The Radiance with the WAK speech and The Messenger with the extended outro. All I need to do now is make a studio version of The Radiance 2.0 and I can put this baby together!

[Mystery]

01. The Requiem (new ending transition)

02. Burning In The Skies

03. Empty Spaces (a little bit longer, maybe 20 seconds longer, and a better lead in to WTCFM)

04. When They Come For Me

05. Robot Boy

06. Jornada Del Muerto

07. Waiting For The End

08. Wretches and Kings

09. Blackout

10. Wisdom, Justice, and Love

11. Iridescent

12. Fallout (add the Oppenheimer speech at the end)

13. The Catalyst

14. The Messenger

I would just hate if there was a disc two haha. It's like "here we have the album, a collection of music that we have worked on for years. Here is a wannabe LPU11 packaged in for another five bucks. Enjoy."
