[edit] 'Join Me' & '666 Ways to Love'

Regarding to things I edited, a single for "Uneasy Listening" & the top 20 number for "666 Ways to Love".

I'm on the 9th Circle and we just got word from Holmes (our leader) that Universal is servicing Join Me to the radio again.

"Anyhow, Universal is servicing "Join Me" to radio (again - this time as a 2 track single: the original version and the Strongroom Mix) as part of the promotional push around "Uneasy Listening Vol. 1." For you collector nerds, yes, there's a new DPRO out there for the single - same artwork (except no cover this time) as the original "Join Me" servicing, and the CD face is slightly different. Obviously, there's a second track as well."


And regarding the 666 Ways to Love part, it was mentioned in their book Synnin Viemaa that the EP broke the top 20 charts and Wicked Game was played constantly on Finnish radio.

[edit] Need to add a version of Close to the Flame PLUS "exclusive" acoustic version of Pretending

  • Close to the Flame (The Rappula Tapes) which is a new version on Uneasy listening Vol. 1 needs to be added to the Other tracks and live performances section.
  • Best Buy claims to have an "Exclusive" Acoustic version of Pretending as a download with the purchase of Uneasy listening Vol. 1. Is this really an "exclusive" version, or is the previously released acoustic version? Antmusic 17:05, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
With how many versions of "Pretending" have been released, I doubt Best Buy has anything that hasn't been released. I will add the other version of Close to the Flame. semper fiMoe 02:10, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
The Best Buy version of Pretending is just the Acoustic version that is found on the Heartache single. There is no new track contained on it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shakescky (talkcontribs) 15:08, 11 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] lacking

This page is really lacking in singles; especially Finnish & German digipacks. I suggest you take a look here: http://www.h-i-m666.com/heartless666/indexf.htm

[edit] Some corrected changes

  • I removed and fixed a lot of junk in the Other tracks and live performances section. Motörhead was properly re-named under All for You.

Audrey's Dance was removed since it was never performed live by the band. It was just music played as an introduction when the band would walk on stage back in 1998.

The acoustic version of (Don't Fear) The Reaper was removed because it is not HIM. It is a cover by Gus Black and can be found on the OST for the movie, Scream.

The unplugged radio live version of For You was removed since it is the same recording as the For You acoustic version.

It's All Tears (2004 Remix) was properly re-named and has a little bit of extra info attached to it.

Updated the album that the Turbonegro cover can be found on. I also removed the "only played live" bit since it never has been performed live.

A little more information about Too Happy to be Alive was added. Also I added the original composer and singer of "Unforgettable".

We Are the World was removed because it was never performed live. The song that has been going around for years is simply a tape play back of the original recording by USA for Africa after the band had walked off stage.

If any one wants, I can pretty much do a complete and correct over-haul of the Other tracks and live performances section. Also, shouldn't we remove the non b-sides/rarities & non-live songs that appear in this section since they're not really "other tracks".
