1. Week One (The Beginning)
2. Walk You Home
3. Bumblebee
4. Two By Two
5. Stark White Stork Approaching (a tinny, demo-like verison of Bumblebee with slightly different lyrics)
(and on some versions- I think the initial UK verison of the EP) 6. That's The Way It's Meant To Be (same as the album version)

Stark White Stork Approaching is more of a reprise than a different version of Bumblebee.

According to the discography on this site, the original UK release on (Fierce Panda) did not have The Way it's Meant to Be, but the current release of the US version (Universal) does.

Technically the album version of TWIMTB is a different mix. The original single version was much more rocked out.

And the correct (and original) track order was...

1. Stark White Stork Approaching
2. Walk You Home
3. Bumblebee
4. The Beginning (Week One)
5. Two By Two

This flows a lot better than all the reissues. SWSA is totally an opening track, not a closer.

I completely agree. I also think it should have been the opener for many of the shows I've been to.

did they open with "stark white stork approaching" at the birmingham, alabama, show? that was the first time i ever saw them, and i can't remember....it was one of those "this is the opening band so they can't be all that good so i'm not really paying that much attention" moments

very foolish of me, very foolish

wish i'd paid much more attention - although i really caught on to how good they were mid way during the show....bought the cd after the show, played it that night driving around birmingham, and played it all the way back home to atlanta....so i figured it out....just took a few songs for the light bulb to go off....

Yep. 5 different songs (all of them great) and one alternate version of TWIMTB!
