The list is pretty accurate even when you do factor educated fan guesses. Just because you can't accept Satellite as being Crush era doesn't make it not, the writing style of it doesn't fit These Days or earlier. You find certain themes/phrases in lyrics that help mark what period it comes out of. The only reason a phrase crosses over into another writing period is when it is a deliberate reference (such as in Breathe, "If all that we've got is each other...etc.") As I said in the other thread, more evidence pointed to it being from relatively recent sessions, Jon does have the ability to hit those notes, not doing it is another story. You have no proof that Jon is unable to do it, only that he doesn't do it. But God forbid any optimism about Jon or the band be sparked by recorded proof they do have the ability to put it out. It's stuff like Satelite that keeps me paying attention in the hope they stop holding back or self censoring the creative process, choosing crap for the albums and shelving what reflects their maturation as artists now.
I'm betting the guessing has more to do with the early 90s songs than the more recent ones. The only surprises I found where Outlaws of Love and Last Chance Train, I really didn't pay much attention to either one to care to try and figure out the era.
