April 1995
- Jewels and Bullets
- Jaimmes Got A Gal (Remix)
- Young Man Blues (Live)
The Jewels And Bullets single was second single from Hi Fi Way and was released in April 1995. It managed to sneak into the 1995 Triple J Hottest 100 at number 93. The song was inspired by the story of Anastasia Romanov, a young Russian princess who was "executed" in 1918. It was rumoured that jewels woven into her gown deflected the bullets meant to kill her. In 1991 the skeletons of the Romanov family were dug up in Siberia. But the skeletons of Anastasia and her brother Alexii were apparently not identified. Rumours have existed for over 79 years that Anastastia did survive. The Jaimmes Got A Gal remix features strings and additional guitar and percussion. Young Man Blues was recorded live at Memorial Stadium, Seattle on August 13, 1994 while supporting Soundgarden on their national tour. The same concert features on the Hi Fi Way limited edition bonus disk, Someone Else's Crowd.
