Line 104:
* [[Beck (musician)|Beck]] recorded a somber, acoustic folk album as his major label followup to ''Mellow Gold'', then decided to scrap the material, collaborate with The Dust Brothers and release the much more eclectic ''Odelay'' instead. Two songs from those sessions, "Brother" and "Feather In Your Cap" saw release as b-sides, while another, "Ramshackle", actually appeared on ''Odelay'' itself. Still, the most critically and commercial successful Beck album almost didn't happen.
** He also had the idea of getting David Eggers and Spike Jonze to do a "commentary track" for the entirety of ''The Information''. This is what led to the recording of Eggers and Jonze having a strange conversation at the end of "The Horrible Fanfare/Landslide/Exoskeleton".
* Voices: [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] The Music, Vol. 9, was originally planned to be a sequel to WWE's 2002 album ''WWE Anthology'', titled ''WWE Anthology II''. ''WWE Anthology II'' was going to be a three-CD set that would have had new music and alternate mixes of older material. It was also going to have unreleased music as well.
* After Jim Morrison's death, there was talk of [[Iggy Pop]] joining [[The Doors]], replacing him as lead singer.
* Before Simple Minds ended up recording it, "Don't You (Forget About Me)" was shopped to [[Roxy Music|Brian Ferry]], Cy Cumin from The Fixx, and [[Billy Idol]], all of whom turned it down. Idol later recorded a version in 2001, as the token new track on a [[Greatest Hits Album]].
