Chronology Volumes 1 and 2 (new album)

[mercyGurl]

Anyone want to guess at tracklists???;)

[sandie]

No, but care to tell us more? :)

[mercyGurl]

Mac said that volume 1 will be out in the spring of '07, volume 2 in the fall, it's the best of collection:D:D

[SirMax]

So are they going to do a Greatest Hits Tour???

Hmmmm....haven't they done this sorta with the Offerings live tracks?

[Mr.Elwood]

If ‘Innocent’ and ‘Rise Up’ and ‘King of Glory’ are not on there, then it’s not their “Greatest hits” collection plain and simple..

[JanetRN]

I wonder if the Best of is going to depend on the air time of the song?

[Big Al]

There is a difference between "Greatest Hits" and "Best Of". "Greatest Hits" are just that, hits. I would guess that those are usually decided by the record company, based on sales/airplay. "Best Of" is going to get you the band/fan favorites. "Consuming Fire", or "Theif", may not be "Hits", since they came about so early, and may very well have not been given much airplay, but they are top of the list on a "Best Of" collection.

At least that's how I look at it..

the two terms are basically the same, even though some see them differently.

[mercyGurl]

I want to know what the setlist is...

[cebrina33]

I just clicked on the tbsstoryline link that Mark posted on the blog and found out about these albums. Can't wait!!! It would be cool to have a dvd with the album... that way we can see the "no fashion" that Tai was talking about. ;) :p

I bet the silver pants will be there!!:D


PS I just saw a Best of Styx CD and Crystal Ball was on there...I dont remember it being a highly played song yet I think its one of the best songs so hey no telling what might be on this best of... maybe it wont be just the top hits.

[rock_the_light]

That would be nice, considering that I became a fan just after Wire came out. By then they probably had people that picked out their wardrobes for them. I haven't gotten around to surfing the internet to see what kind of "no fashion" Tai was chuckling about. I'm too lazy.;)

[lilmikey]

Somebody probably already mentioned this but they could call it

Third Day

The Blonde years

[sandie]

LOL. The Peroxide Collection, perhaps? :p

[RevZeek]

I've been thinking...Third Day has been doing this for quite a while now. However, since all of the guys are family men; I see this as being the last thing for a while. I can almost feel it coming. I'm thinking the guys are going to take a break in the near future and maybe work on songwriting, or producing for other artists. Maybe just being "dad" far a year or so.
Perhaps this collection is to satiate us "psycho fans" :p while the guys take some much needed (and much deserved) time off.
What do y'all think about that?

You could be right, but I don't think so. I read a recent article by Mac (I tried to find it for ya, but I couldn't) and he talked about a bunch of stuff. One thing he said was that when they started, they didn't think about or want to be doing this for like 20-25 years, but he said that they are halfway to that now, and in his words, "They don't feel like stoppin." I like the sound of that. :D

[sandie]

Third Day tend to tour a lot one year, and then have a lighter schedule the next. This year will have fewer concerts, if they follow that pattern.

[mercyGurl]

Has anyone heard any more information anywhere about this?

[jumpingmaniac]

check this thread out,http://thirdday.com/boards/showthread.php?t=93850

[mercyGurl]

Well I think we had pretty much figured there would be a DVD with it because the band had been looking at old footage.

[Corrine]

Third Day has 24 hit songs. CDs generally have about 12 songs on them. If this is a "Greatest Hits" CD collection, that's what will be on it, 12 and 12. Maybe after they do this, they can do a "Fan Favorite" collection, which isn't hte same as their greatest hits.

Cross Canadian Ragweed did a "Fan Favorite" collection called "Back to Tulsa." Im sure other bands have done this as well, i know Thirdday dosen't like to follow trends, but a "fan record" would be a nice treat. I would love to hear "faith, hope, love" song on the contagious album re-cut :cool:

No...yea...but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I'd love to see some of the songs they don't do anymore on there...Gomer's Theme!!! Peace, Alien, NEVER BOW DOWN, Believe (from Time), Give Me a Reason, More to This, Who I Am, Your Love Endures Forever, Longtime Coming and Underwater from Southern Tracks, Carry Me Home, I Got You, 40 Days...ok, that's way more than anyone cares to hear...but I got carried away!

Can't wait to get this!

[Kasie_89]

Agreed!! I would LOVE for them to put Underwater on the CD. That is one of my favorite songs....

[lilmikey]

You know what would be really cool? That they would put that song in that was on the Strand cd. Maybe as a bonus track or something

[wolfgang]

Most of the time Best Ofs or Greatest Hits or whatever you wish to call them will have at least one, usually two, previously unreleased tracks to get fans that already have all the songs to buy the cd. I would expect at least 1 new song per cd.

[lespaulsupreme]

i was just curious, will they re-record the songs or just make a compilation of the previous albums. it would be great to hear them re-record it just because brad and mark's tone is so much greater now...

[Corrine]

I'm thinking they might re-record them, especially since the quality of a couple of the early albums is in question by some.

[SirMax]

CONTAGIOUS!!!!

:D

I want that one back....

hey I think we should be able to vote on the songs;)

[Corrine]

Contagious, huh? Hmmm. Maybe. ;)

[SirMax]

Contagious, huh? Hmmm. Maybe. ;)


Maybe??? Okay you say that like you KNOW what's on the set list or you have pull in what is going to be on it....'fess up girl!!!!:p

[mercyGurl]

I have been asking for Contagious for over 2 years...almost 3. If it was on there I would be exceedingly thrilled.:D

[kiwimobro]

[mercyGurl]

300 miles away--who cares? I would officially erase any shred of normalacy I have here at school if Contagious was on it--
HEY WHAT'S UP I'M FEELIN' CONTAGIOUS!

[The Unknown Gomer]

I must be in the minority, "Contagious" is actually one of my LEAST favorite songs on Contagious. If I had to pick a favorite, just off the top o' my head, I'd probably have to say it's a toss up between "Simply Amazin'" and "Sometimes". :cool:

[Gandalf]

I'm thinking they might re-record them, especially since the quality of a couple of the early albums is in question by some.
I'd personally rather see a remastered version of Conspiracy No. 5 or Contagious than a compilation album like this: usually, such an album is a sign that a band's best days are in the past, they're not coming out with new material, and the record company wants to keep making money off the fans. I'm not saying that's the case here, but I still don't like compilation albums for that reason. They just seem like bad omens even if they're not.

I am looking forward to better quality versions of some of the older songs though, if they do record them fresh.

I'm with you there - The album's not bad, but I think there are better songs on it than the title track.

[Jason]

I'm thinking it won't be just the hits because of the name of the CDs. Chronology implies a time line of sorts. A Third Day time line without songs from Long Time Forgotten and Contagious would be incomplete.

I really like Simply Amazin' also....Contagious is just fun

[poman]

I'm thinking that this thing may be a DVD with possibly an audio Cd as well, sort of like Live Wire. Two reasons;

1 Go to the blog and check out the link for tbs storyline. One of the video links has Tai and Mac discussing the new project. They say something about Mac being embarrased when they were looking at some old footage of themselves and Tai tells Mac he has to get past all of that because it (the old stuff) is just part of the story. Old video footage? Maybe a DVD!

2 On either Google video or You tube (sorry I can't remember) I saw a video the other day of the guys going down the road on the tour bus. David is sort of narrating and says they are watching some old video footage of themselves when they were opening for someone else about ten years ago (maybe more, my memory fails me).

I'm sure the guys have probably recorded every concert they have done and done some filming at quite a few as well. I'm thinking maybe they are trying to put together a DVD of some concert footage in chronological order of some of their best songs ranging from they early days to the present. An audio CD of the music would be great to go along with it. I just don't see the guys putting out a "greatest hits" CD. Most of us already have ALL of their CDs and that would be useless to alot of the fans! I'm sure they have something up their sleeve. I just can't wait to find out what it is!:D

From Jesusfreakhideout.com


For a celebration that has been ten years, nearly six million albums, millions of fans and miles on the road, 23 No. 1 radio singles, 23 Dove Awards, and two GRAMMY Awards in the making, Third Day is releasing two very special and unique collections in 2007. Chronology Volume One and Two (sold separately) will contain rare and unreleased audio and video recordings from the band, giving fans a view into the history and making-of one of Christian Music’s most recognized groups. From early video of Mac Powell and Mark Lee performing at their home church to a brand-new version of the Third Day-classic “Thief,” Chronology, Volume One (1996-2000) showcases the first five years of Third Day in a way you will not see anywhere else. Celebrate 10+ years of Third Day throughout 2007 – The Year of Third Day! Click here for track and DVD information about Chronology, Volume One (1996-2000), which hits stores March 27!

That description sounds much better than a "greatest hits" compilation - sort of like the old Caedmon's Call Guild stuff, except sold to the general public without having to pay for a fan club membership.

*Not final list, subject to change

[VeggieFan05]

That's awesome! I'm so excited! I was finding it hard to get into the idea of just a collection of songs I already have. But this sounds great! :D

[TLF4Him]

I wish they would prayerfully consider adding "May Your Wonders Never Cease." They never play it live because I can't yell fast enough to get all the syllables heard correctly. (I had to just give up on "Innocent" because when requesting that song live I just got strange looks like I was denying my guilt about something.)

This could be a chance for this song to become one of their new hits.

Seriously.

I mean I know somebody in Ft Worth who would personally call KLTY every day to request it.

Please add it as a hidden track!!

I love that song!

Hug, hug, kiss, kiss, big hug, little kiss, hug, hug, big kiss.

[NurseBettyLu]

I wasn' excited before--I was one of the gloom-and-doomers. NOW I'm excited--I mean, how am I supposed to go to sleep tonight???:D

[TARHEEL]

Woo Hoo! Releasing on my 31st Birthday! What an awesome birthday present!

[Jason]

Woo Hoo! Releasing on my 31st Birthday! What an awesome birthday present!

Hey, that's my mom's birthday too. :)

[The Unknown Gomer]

The CD will be good, although I think I noticed a distinct lack of songs from Long Time Forgotten and Contagious. Maybe in Volume II?

But look at the contents of the DVD though. Now that ALONE is worth the price of admission, particularly the really early stuff. Woot! :cool:

March 27th someone said? Got it marked on the old mental calendar. :D

[mvdb]

I am looking forward to when this collection comes out. I love every song from them. I will be glad to have their earlier songs on a collection. Love Marjan:D

[jabob]

I count 5 items from "Conspiracy #5". That was more than I was expecting. Is it too much to hope that the remix of "Who I Am" is the full version of the tag on the end of the album? I was originally not thrilled about this project; I gladly recant.

[Veni Vidi Velo]

Now that everyone is excited because they have seen the list, you may be disappointed if it changes. It did say subject to change!

[silverose]

I am So EXCITED about this now!!!! I just can't wait.....:D

[Gandalf]

Now that everyone is excited because they have seen the list, you may be disappointed if it changes. It did say subject to change!
Just knowing that it's this type of project rather than just a compilation CD as we'd originally feared is what most people are primarily excited about, I think. Certainly, there are specific songs that people are looking forward to, but this looks like it'll be a good release even if minor changes happen.

[Howlin' Wolf]

havent the offereings cds been their best of?

but let me get this straight. third day is going to release not 1, but 2 "best of" albums that contain studio versions of the songs that i already have studio versions of!?!?!?!?! at least when Jars did this, they played some live and remixed the other!

kudos to you mac! youve officially sold your soul to the almighty CCM and the almighty dollar!!

[Gandalf]

The Offerings CDs were half new stuff, anyway...

I think it's the old video footage on the DVD that is the novelty here. Remixes of some of their old songs don't hurt either. It would be nice to have a few new items on there, but... at least it's not just a collection of exact copies of previously released material. Not sure why there'll be two separate albums though. Hopefully the second one has new material or something.

[bholdj]

Jason, didn't Cadmon's call do this? I remember hearing the "Thankful" remix and thinking "there is nothing new about this except a longer instrumental part."

What makes Cadmon's Call's effort and Thirdday's so different?

Honestly, I wish a poll was conducted and the fans could have picked which songs went on the chronology. Ah well.

[googledoll]

With all due respect, John, that is the last thing I would want. I am interested in the band's vision of a BEST OF collection. I think the song list looks promising. :)

[Cab07]

I'm really excited for this!!! Thanks, Third Day! you guys rock...

[bholdj]

don't get me wrong, i can't wait to hear what "who I am" sounds like remixed.

just a personal prefrence of mine is all :)

I thought I read or heard somewhere that the first cd is the first 5 years and the second would be the 2nd 5 years of the band.

[AgentSteph]

Is it too much to hope that the remix of "Who I Am" is the full version of the tag on the end of the album?PREACH IT, brother!!! Can I get an Amen? :D:D

Nothing At All! Does that mean we might get to hear it live again one day????? King of Glory....SUHWEET! That'd better stay right there or, or, or well it just really needs to stay there.

I wish they would prayerfully consider adding "May Your Wonders Never Cease."

This could be a chance for this song to become one of their new hits.

Seriously.
This sounds like absolute G E N I U Sto me.

I mean I know somebody in Ft Worth who would personally call KLTY every day to request it.

What a coincidence! ME TOO.

Hug, hug, kiss, kiss, big hug, little kiss, hug, hug, big kiss.It's probably not safe to quote that particular line from Nacho. Those who don't get it may get the wrong idea.:D :rolleyes:

[TheGirlFromOz]

Wow!! This is exciting news!! I can't wait til the release!! :D

I will not roll my eyes... I will not roll my eyes... I will no-- 81043

Darn, sorry, it just slipped out. ;)

Let's see... 17 tracks...5 remixes, 4 new versions... so more than half the CD is either remixes or new versions. And out of the remaining 8 unchanged studio songs, at least one was already remixed once (unless I'm mistaken; Nothin' At All is the one that had some sort of rock remix on the Alien single, didn't it?), and two are from Southern Tracks, which a lot of people don't actually HAVE on CD yet.

PLUS a DVD with really old archive concert footage dating back to 1993? Works for ME! :cool:

The only song I personally would replace if I had a choice, is Have Mercy. I tend to skip right over that one each time I play that CD.

That just about sums up everything I wanted to say; except - I disagree on "Have Mercy". That is one of the greatest "driving too fast on a twisty back road" songs ever recorded.

[NurseBettyLu]

Yup, I got pulled over once listening to "Have Mercy". The state trooper was not amused.

[The Unknown Gomer]

Yup, I got pulled over once listening to "Have Mercy". The state trooper was not amused.LOL. I got pulled over while I was jamming to 3D too, it was my first time driving after my first 3D show on the Live Wire tour, and I was still pretty hyped up. NOT so hyped up that I didn't know that I HADN'T actually been speeding - well, unless you want to call 29 in a 25 "speeding" worthy of a ticket - that they actually DID pull me over to help fill a quota that night (it was right after halloween and there'd been complaints in the neighborhood of people driving too fast, so the cops were just there pulling people over right and left regardless of whether they actually WERE speeding or not just to say "see, we listened to your complaints, look how many 'speeders' we pulled over tonight!"). :mad:

Went to court three times over it, and lost essentially 8 hours worth of work in the process, until I they realized that I was NOT going roll over and just pay it, and they finally dismissed it. Nyah on them. "I'm Noko Marie, don't mess with me..." ;)

Had I NOT been jamming to 3D at the time, I probably would have seen the cop on the side street in enough time to slow down the :rolleyes: 4mph I was going over the speed limit to avoid getting written up.

I wouldn't count those songs out just yet. ;)

[Mr.Elwood]

Nice to see it’s not just a radio “best of” type of thing. I’m sure the video footage is going to spawn all sorts of threads commenting on how the kids looked as they were just getting started.

Now, if we could just get someone from the Third Day team to come announce it to the fans on their own fans site, rather than every other website, it would make this non-internet trolling, Google searching, drop what you’re doing “DING”, fan very pleased…
:D

[SirMax]

[danbos]

I'm interested to hear the remix of Consuming Fire.

[The Unknown Gomer]

I wouldn't count those songs out just yet. ;)That's right, someone said that the tracklist wasn't set in concrete, that it WAS subject to change.

That would be a nice change, to see some of the REALLY early tracks on there. :cool: And at the right speed. (I play the LTF tape back on my tapedeck, and it tends to play back a little fast, so Mac sounds a little "Alvin and the Chipmunk-y" when he's singing. :p )

And for the record, I think the CD covers are very cool. They have this "aged" feel to them, just right for a project like this. :)

[mercyGurl]

Not true--I loved Christmas Offerings, and the Field WYA cover was awesome...

Everyone's a critic though!

No, I think that's just the way he sounded back then. Why do you think they aren't too keen on everyone hearing it? :p

[TARHEEL]

I'm just excited to get a two new cds from the guys! No matter what is on em, I'm still gonna buy it. Some bands go 2 years without releasing anything. The guys have been working hard, give them they're do! All the nay-sayers need to lightening up a bit. The cds are gonna rock don't worry. That why we love Third day, they always do.

[Corrine]

With every new CD, there are nay-sayers. I don't understand that, but I tend to have a positive attitude about everything. Some people expect the worst in everything. And I tend to trust people who have shown themselves to be trustworthy. Third Day hasn't let me down yet, I trust they won't this time either. :)

I guess I fall into the category of any CD is a good CD. *shrugs* Why the angst?

I'm hoping for maybe a new song or two that I haven't heard but I'll probably go ahead and buy the CDs anyway even if it's all stuff from albums I already have.

[TARHEEL]

Thanks Mama! Thats why we love Third day! I too trust that whatever they decide to put out will be great. I surely don't expect to be let down either. Well said Mama!

[Gapeach3DFan]

With every new CD, there are nay-sayers. I don't understand that, but I tend to have a positive attitude about everything. Some people expect the worst in everything. And I tend to trust people who have shown themselves to be trustworthy. Third Day hasn't let me down yet, I trust they won't this time either. :)
I just think it's weird that so many people have been posting, asking for a greatest hits project. Now that the guys are releasing that project, people are complaining about it. Just proves that you can't please everybody.

I agree with you. They haven't let me know with any of their CDs. Each one has just seemed right at the time. And, ten years later, their older stuff still sounds good. So, I'm looking forward to hearing the remixes, too. Of course, my fave song is on Conspiracy. I've heard remixes of it.

I think it's good sometimes to take a step back and look at the journey that has led you to where you are. It really shows us what God has done for us. Musically, it's really cool to look back a band's journey and how much they have grown. Third Day's sound has matured so much over the last ten years. It will be cool to hear the new sound applied to some of the older songs. I also look forward to the next decade. :)

Well said, Corrine! I will say again I'm glad that for the most part this is not just a greatest hits project with the same version of songs I already have. I'm really excited about the remixes and the DVD stuff. I love everything the guys have put out. If they were to record "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" I would probably buy it!:p :p :p

[jaci74]

No, I think that's just the way he sounded back then. Why do you think they aren't too keen on everyone hearing it? :p

I call them the "Cat Stevens" mixes ;) :p

Going back and looking at the list on jesusfreakhideout, I noticed the mix for I've Always Loved You is a 'steel mix'. :D Looking forward to hearing that!

[3D NC fan]

May Your Wonders Never Cease is one of my favorites! I love that guitar riff at the end....

[Corrine]

[SirMax]

Yes, I confess, I do know something. *goes off singing "Simply Amazin'"* ;)


She finally admits it.....okay that song is fun fun fun....*skips away singing*

[Corrine]

She finally admits it.....okay that song is fun fun fun....*skips away singing*
That's it?! :eek: You are going to give up that easily? You don't even wonder why I'm singing that particular song? You are no fun. :p

[SirMax]

That's it?! :eek: You are going to give up that easily? You don't even wonder why I'm singing that particular song? You are no fun. :p


My goodness.....okay...it's Simply Amazin' that we suggested they record Contagious?????

[mercyGurl]

Are they re-recording ALL of Contagious????

[SirMax]

are you guys ready to hear me and Sarah scream 4 states away if they re-record Contagious????

That will be my new sign!!! (After I make my Long Time Comin' sign)

[mercyGurl]

Fo Real.

Those Australian Gomers will be able to hear it.

[NurseBettyLu]

I don't know. He looks a little worried. :p
I don't blame him. Wouldn't you?:D

[The Unknown Gomer]

I don't blame him. Wouldn't you?:DHeeheehee. :p Kinda makes me wonder what the other guys would look like in dreads. :eek:

[poman]

Heeheehee. :p Kinda makes me wonder what the other guys would look like in dreads. :eek:
I'm sure someone will have that coming soon!:p

[poman]

What about Cafe Milano, Boca Raton, and Portland on the bootleg videos? Will those just be one song a piece or maybe a handful of songs from each show? I think we all prefer the latter.:)

[TroJar]

I've been away from the boards for quite a while, but to pay a visit and see this thread...it made my day! Not that I don't love the classics (cause I've been hooked since the bus cd), but hearing them re-do these songs gets me excited! :D

Plus the behind the scene footage will be great. I really can't wait for this to come out!

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm still giddy. Honestly, I really do have the days counted.

[TARHEEL]

When is the pre-order madness gonna start?

[MrsC_Aussie]

ok one Aussie who is very much looking forward to end of March (hope the AU release date is close to US date!)! love the covers, love the song list!
just have to add a comment for those few negative comments, these guys dont seem to make a move without prayfully considering it and discussing it, I have no doubt they have spent lots of time in pray deciding which songs to record! the Lord God is Sovereign, these albums are gonna be AWESOME!!!!!

[RockinRiffs]

I wanna hook in to the pre-order madness........please!

[danbos]

Oh, I am getting more and more excited for this thing! :D

[MrsC_Aussie]

I wanna hook in to the pre-order madness........please!

lol darling you're already mad!!!

[NurseBettyLu]

Aren't we all?

Yay! Who else likes the new mix of "Thief?"

[Debbie]

It was very nice to see this album (I know CD:p ) being advertised by Sam's Club. That is a 1st that I know of....

I am very happy they are doing this. I cannot wait to see the DVD. Feel it is going to be great and full of surprises.

[g-man]

Yay! Who else likes the new mix of "Thief?"


Thief sounds GREAT. :D

Are you pre ordering it from here?

[g-man]

Are you pre ordering it from here?


No I'll wait and see what kinda deals there are. :D

[groover]

Since Vol 1 has DVD 'extra' material which seems to span past 2000, wonder if Vol 2 will have unreleased song 'extra' material? Maybe like Jennifer Knapps 'best of' collection, a 2nd disc of demos, rarities and maybe a couple of tracks from their pre-label days, even if a DVD this could easily be done (and would be very cool)...

[VeggieFan05]

I can't wait to hear all of the new Thief! What exactly do they mean by a new 'mix' on some of the other songs?
