While Panic! At The Disco’s debut album is filled with incredible songs with lengthy song titles, the demo tracklisting looked quite differently.
The band’s long-time manager Scott Nagelberg has shared a photo of the first master of the album that started it all. He came across the nostalgic piece while packing up his apartment over the weekend.
Interesting enough, the song titles for the songs are much shorter than the ones they ended up using. Here’s the tracklisting and the songs they eventually became:
- ‘Intro’ – ‘Introduction’
- ‘Applause’ – ‘The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage’
- ‘NYC’ – ‘London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines’
- ‘Nails’ – ‘Nails For Breakfast, Tacks For Snacks’
- ‘Relax’ – ‘Camisado’
- ‘Time To Dance’ – ‘Time To Dance’
- ‘Sweat’ – ‘Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off’
- ‘Interlude’ – ‘Intermission’
- ‘Cabaret’ – ‘But It’s Better If You Do’
- ‘Flam Chorus’ – ‘I Write Sins Not Tragedies’
- ‘Esteban’ – ‘I Constantly Thank God For Esteban’
- ‘Top Hats’ – ’There’s A Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven’t Thought Of It Yet’
- ‘Favourite Things’ – ‘Build God, Then We’ll Talk’
