For the sake of configuring the double album of Time to the best of your ability, Tears in Your Life and Helpless are the ideal placeholder tracks - even if they were indeed recorded after the Time sessions concluded. I'd recommend Helpless going in the second spot instead because on the lyrics "I'd be helpless without you." While not perfect, the lyrics are better matched near the end especially after following The Bouncer which signifies the protagonist's imagining his return, followed by Helpless saying how (upon reflection) he'd be helpless with Julie, then Hold on Tight as a reminder to carry this dream with him going forward and appreciating all he has currently (in context with the rest of the album lyrics). I recommend to you Tears in Your Life being the first placeholder track, since it's quite sad - a good follow after Julie. You can maybe even include Second Time Around as a prelude to lengthen the side out (since Second Time Around and Tears in Your Life are similar in their three part harmonies).
I rather wonder if ShardEnder's recent hints in this thread and the 50th aniv. thread is suggesting the second of the two tracks is called Time Traveller. The name Time Traveller would fit well with the alternative Flashback HOT intro. Whether that means the other track is called True Love I don't know.

I'd always referred to that second track as Time Transporter (which is mentioned in Rain Is Falling), but I guess that sound at the end could be someone using this device, which would make them a Time Traveller. At least we all seem to agree on the first seven letters!

So as we all know Jeff likes to take little snippets of songs, reverse them and throw them into another track. My question is that reversed intro to "From The End Of The World' taken from elsewhere on 'Time', or is just a unique effect to that track? Cheers guys

Cheers guys I would say it's from the song, the same string run (and chord) always appears in the second half of the song at the point "i send a dream .." - but mostly it ends there in a long note, only the last time the final note is shorter, but there without the following cellos, which then play their syncopation (F G - F G). Maybe it was an outtake, or the later edited ending of the string section, which was reversed. dlrow eht fo dne eht morf
edit: or maybe it is exactly this part in the song - and the long high note comes from other violins or even synthesizers ... the cellos are definitely inaudible

Big thanks for looking in to it

Not sure if this will be a wind up It starts off with Prologue and then switches to an obnoxious performance from American Idol where a guy drops his pants and exposes himself onstage ( all covered over in this video), then it goes blank until the last few seconds when someone comes on and yells "It's time". Don't waste your "Time" on this one. Really stupid!!
