Everyone seems to get very excited about tracklistings these days. Why a list of tracks you've never heard of from a forthcoming album is exciting is anyone's guess - though I suppose it throws down the gauntlet to illegal downloaders everywhere - "here's the full list, see if you can get a copy of all of them before the album is actually released".
Anyway, the tracklisting for Eminem's 'Encore' has surfaced on the net three weeks ahead of retail release. According to the NME it runs thus.
Curtains Up - Encore version
Evil Deeds
Never Enough
Yellow Brick Road
Like Toy Soldiers
Mosh
Puke
My 1st Single
Paul (skit)
Rain Man
Big Weenie
Em Calls Paul (skit)
Just Lose It
Ass Like That
Spend Some Time
Mockingbird
Crazy In Love
One Shot 2 Shot
Final Thought (skit)
Encore/Curtains Down'
Polydor - who oversee Slim Shady releases over here - were unable to confirm or deny the list, nor did they comment when the NME asked them in 'Crazy In Love' is a re-working of the Beyonce hit of the same name. So now you know, or you don't, depending how you look at it.
