About me: COME JOIN AND BECOME A FRIEND AND SUPPORT THE THOMPSON TWINS RARITIES COLLECTION MYSPACE PETITION
THIS MYSPACE SITE WAS SET UP FOR FANS AND SUPPORTERS OF THE THOMPSON TWINS TO SAY WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO SEE RELEASED FROM SONY/BMG AND WARNER MUSIC
WE ARE GRATEFUL TO SONY/BMG FOR ALL THE PREVIOUS THOMPSON TWINS COMPILATION, BUT NONE OF THEM ACTUALLY CONTAINED RARE TRACKS, B-SIDES ETC, NOR IS THERE AN OFFICIAL DVD RELEASE
THE NEAREST FANS GOT TO A RARITIES COLLECTION WAS THE UK "GREATEST HITS" COMPILATION WHICH CONTAINED THE UK 7" VERSION OF "ROLL OVER" WHICH WAS THE SINGLE THAT NEVER GOT RELEASED FROM 1985 AND ALSO A DEMO VERSION OF "SISTER OF MERCY", BOTH TRACKS WERE FROM SONY/BMG'S ARCHIVES, THERE MUST BE MORE AROUND!
TOM BAILEY SAID HE WOULD LIKE TO BE INVOLVED WITH THIS TOO. SO PLEASE SONY/BMG AND WARNER MUSIC, LET'S GET THIS OFF THE GROUND. THIS SITE PROVES THAT THERE IS A MARKET FOR THIS, A RARITIES COLLECTION AND AN OFFICIAL DVD RELEASE. THE THOMPSON TWINS HAVE A BIG FOLLOWING AND A RARITIES COLLECTION IS SUCH A GREAT IDEA. THE FANS WILL ASSIST TOO IN CREATING THIS.... THERE IS A LOT OF RARE MATERIAL AROUND!
UPDATE - END MARCH 2008 - 2 UK CD RELEASES HAVE BEEN PUT OUT, BOTH DOUBLE CD'S CONTAINING B-SIDES & REMIXES... BUT THEY HAVE BEEN MET WITH MIXED REACTIONS. SOME SAY THE QUALITY ISN'T THAT GOOD, SOME SAY THE HERE'S TO FUTURE DAYS CD (IF IT HAPPENS) WILL BE A LET DOWN
THIS JUST GOES TO SHOW, WHAT WE ALL WANT IS A DECENT BOXSET AND DVD RELEASE!
U P D A T E II - THE THOMPSON TWINS ONLINE PETITION IS NOW ACTIVE!!!
P L E A S E COME SIGN IT... ONCE COMPLETED, I WILL FORWARD THE PETITION, ALONG WITH THE ADDRESS OF THIS MYSPACE SITE TO SONG/BMG & WARNERS UK & US!
I HAVE MADE A VIDEO ADVERTISING THE PETITION... IT IS FEATURED HERE!
Who I'd like to meet: Please come and request to be a friend, let's get this off the ground!
In the Comments section here, say what tracks and videos you would like to see get a release!
Thank you
SONY/BMG AND WARNER MUSIC, I CAN BE CONTACTED AT:

Please, if there is going to be a RARE Thompson Twins CD can we please have "Make Believe"! It is my favourite song by Thompson Twins along with MANY others!
Damn! I just saw the tracklisting with song lenghts for the Side Kicks reissue. "Love On Your Side" is listed at 3:33 which means we still are not getting the original album version! Why can't any label get this right?
Would love to have a "Live In Liverpool" DVD release as both my VHS copies are pretty worn. I'll also be doing a post about this petition on the TT page at Last.fm. You've got my support 100% so thanks for accepting. xxx
Hey, I would like to see a DVD Release of Here's To Future Days Live, Geoff have you ever asked Tom if this was ever filmed, seems strange that they had footage for the Revolution video, and they were still huge in America, Japan and Australia at the time. Steve
Thanks for the nice comments guys! Let's keep this rolling... spread the word about this MySpace site, let's get lots of fans and supporters of the Thompson's joined up here. Please, anyone on the Loveonyourside and Bigtrash Yahoo mailing lists, come join up.. even if you aren't a member of MySpace, do it for this site, it only takes a moment to register!
Yes Micky, it's great that Thomas Dolby and Tom/Jackson are friends of the site... THANKS guys!
Great to see the petition getting a lot of recognition that is totally deserving. Loving the fact that Tom Bailey and Thomas Dolby have come on-board. You could not get better support from the whole gang of friends. Lets hope this swings things in the dimly lit rooms at the record companies. Cheers, Micky D!
We sure do have talanted fans!! You being one of them Jeff!! :-D
It's GREAT to hear new/updated alternative versions of the old songs... who knows, maybe Sony/BMG & Warners will include our mixes on a compilation... never say never!
I too love Andrew's remix of "Long Goodbye" (it's featured here on the site!), and WELCOME Andrew, thanks for the support mate!
