I just got Souvenirs vinyl. I never knew of this "Telson" song. I haven't listened yet. It says it is an instrumental. Is it an actual song? Guess I'll find out soon enough. It's just that I've never heard of it before today.

if you don't want to know the answer of your questions, then don't read my following lines ^

"Telson" is the Souvenirs "hidden/ghost track". As well, you can also listen to this track on CD as a pregap:
playing the first song ("these good people") and "rewinding" (more accurately, seeking in reverse) until the actual start of the whole CD audio track. well the trick works on some CD players only.

there's a ghost track too on BLD ep. its title is "Over You

I was also suprised when I bought this lp.
I've heard this song few mounths ago and thought that it was "the sister" of "We Just Stopped Breathing"...
And for "Over You" I don't remember this was in BLD... :o I need to listen it! :P

During the writing process of Souvenirs, there were two working titles Telson I and Telson II
I cant say for sure but my guess is that Telson was never completed and then used as hidden track.. and well Telson II made it to the album with the name We Just Stopped Breathing :D

The first time I heard "Telson", it sounded to me like a part from "We just stopped breating" recorded backwards (like satanic messages usually do ;) )
