"Faintest Tremor In The Weakest Heart" follows next, much more muted in tone with Radiohead-like guitars vying with each other for attention. What sets it miles apart from the average however is - once again - Montgomery's vocals; part Alison Moyet, part McAlmont, part Britney Spears (er...): all glass-shattering beauty. "She's So Familiar" closes things with another slice of God's own apple pie; delicate, shimmering and delicious, and with a ponderous resonant bass covering the whole thing like custard.

These are the sort of songs that the light switch was invented for: listen to this in the dark and be transported to another place (not necessarily Geneva).

An "U.N.K.L.E." remix follows, shooting volts of electricity through the original, but without changing the tempo, resulting in something that only twitches slightly instead of pumping on your stereo. "Ice Bandits" follows, presumably a bit of incidental music from Mr Bond's latest gritty and realistic adventures. As such, it has all the repeated listening value of your granny playing the spoons at Christmas time.

A bizarre Cornelius remix of "Tender" follows, which strips away all the music of the original, leaving just the vocals and some "My First Sequencer" style beats and synths. It gets into its own about half-way through when the fast beats spill out the toybox, and certainly makes a nice change from remixes which simply stick on a drum loop to the original then run away. "So You" is the third track, by the sounds of it from the same sessions as those that produced "13". Notable for a guitar riff that buzzes through it like a run-down generator, and a tune that deceives with its simplicity in the way that only Blur can deceive.

CD2 has an "UNKLE" (these boys get around) remix of "Battle", resulting in a fairly forgettable bit of ambient techno. "Beagle 2" is another unreleased track, but is simply one of those haunted fairground style instrumentals that Blur are so keen of sticking on b-sides. The second CD is redeemed by the suitably downbeat video to "No Distance Left To Run", made up of actual footage of the band sleeping. Preceded by the guys stating how nervous they are at being filmed asleep, the actual video proves they had little to worry about. No drooling or tentpoles to be seen.

2 live tracks on the b: the Terminator-esque "Altamont" and the superior "The Machine In The Ghost", a spooky, shady thing that flits through the same haunted house inhabited by Massive Attack. Also included is the Heinz Spaghetti Western video, sadly not featuring the dog from "Stop The Rock".
