"Days in Gloucestershire" had the potential to be really good. It's reminiscent of "Stranger in Moscow" and the circumstances behind its writing/recording are similar, too. Shame the vocals were never finished. Still, it gets my vote.

I like the 2003 demo of "I Am a Loser", even though it's a little too depressing. I don't necessarily agree with changing it to "I Was a Loser", though, because it takes away from the heartbreaking aspect of the song.

The leaked snippet of "Adore You" was interesting.

"Hold My Hand" is just a glorified Akon song.

"Best of Joy" seems to be the only song here that was actually finished. I kinda find hard to believe that the released version was recorded in 2008, though. We sure it wasn't the 90s? I recall some people speculating Sony just lied. I like the song even though it's a little too corny for my tastes. Reminds me of "Speechless".

The leaked snippet of "Water" is too generic.

Wonder if we'll ever listen to the songs he recorded with will.i.am.
 
Gotta go with “Best of Joy.” Just gorgeous.

“Days in Gloucestershire” is also wonderful, but like you said, it’s a little too unfinished.
 
Best of Joy is a true buried treasure.
That song is one of the reasons I believe unreleased songs should be released. It'd be terrible to see a magical song like that not released, gathering dust in a vault somewhere.

Days In Gloucestershire is also wonderful, I wish Mike had finished that one, the melody and atmosphere are lovely
 
I know Days In Gloucestershire is a bit unfinished but that's probably why I really like it. I guess I like the bit of unfinished part because it kinda lets the mind wonder off and make up what would happen next in the song. That's just my personal opinion.
