I would guess that in this case it's because "The Real Thing" CD was not
released
in the U. S., so that is why "Say Your Prayers" is being included. Of course
then
why not the other three studio tracks from that CD...hell why not the whole
thing!
I can't really say why tracks differ depending on which country a CD is
released
in, but I don't think it's as common as it used to be. Back in the
mid-sixties it
was the common practice in Britain to not include singles on album releases.
Compare some of the Beatles and Stones early albums to their American
counterparts - there is quite a diversity in them.
