The third disc also includes songs associated with Boys for Pele plus
1999's To Venus and Back and Tales of a Librarian: A Tori Amos Collection. The 15 songs feature original and remixed versions of album tracks as well as "Hey Jupiter" (Dakota Version) and "Professional Widow" (Armand's Star Trunk Funkin' Mix). Also featured is "Walk To Dublin" (Sucker Reprise)," an unreleased track from the Pele sessions.
From the Choirgirl Hotel (1998), Scarlet's Walk (2002), and The Beekeeper (2005) are the focus of the fourth disc, which contains 15 songs including original and remixed versions of album tracks. Also featured is the intro for "Marys Of The Sea" from The Beekeeper as well as the four previously unreleased songs "Not David Bowie," "Zero Point," "Ode To My Clothes," and "Dolphin Song." In the liner notes Amos writes: "Some songs seem to have a timeline for when they want to be finished and put out to the world. At the time when we were working on 'Dolphin Song,' I had all kinds of ideas for her development after the basic tracking had been done. Instead she got set aside for a while. But once we started to go through the tape library we put 'Dolphin' up on the faders again, and I realized we didn't need to
record anything else; it was finished."
The final disc features 22 tracks spotlighting Amos' impressive list of
renowned B-sides and includes the exclusive digital release "Merman" from 1999. For what could be the most intriguing addition to the collection, Amos invites listeners into her artistic process with a medley of demos for the songs "Fire-Eater's Wife/Beauty Queen," "Playboy Mommy" and "A Sorta Fairytale." Amos explains in the liner notes: "I'm usually pretty reticent to expose the musical development process . . . The demo medley was a choice I made so that other songwriters can feel an affinity with the idea that songwriters have to push themselves and not just accept the first incarnation that you are presented with. Each of these three songs are presented here in their completed form somewhere within the box set so you can see conception to development."
