What are the Majesty Demos?
The Majesty Demos was a very early demo tape (and later CD) released by DT back when they were called Majesty. The demos are actually the first original material ever put to tape by the band, and hold a special place in the history of DT.

Apart from that CD, "Majesty Demos" refers also to any songs DT demoed back when they were Majesty (and even some from when they were DT). Here is a list of these songs:

A Change of Seasons
A Late Summer Rain
A Vision *
Afterlife
Another Won *
Creep With Tonality (1)
Cry for Freedom
Death of Spock, The
Don't Look Past Me
Gates of Babylon (2)
Golden Slumbers (3)
Grab That Feel (4)
Killing Hand, The
March of the Tyrant *
Metropolis
Mission: Impossible
O Holy Night
Resurrection of Ernie
Schizophrenia
To Live Forever
Too Far *
Vital Star *
Ytse Jam
Your Majesty *
Wanted: Dead or Alive (sort of a joke)

1 - Later renamed Learning to Live
2 - An old Rainbow song
3 - Also called The Golden Weight
4 - Later renamed Take The Time

* - Appears on the Majesty Demos 1987 CD.

In 2003, as part of the first batch of the Ytsejam Records releases, the Majesty Demos were re-released in vastly-improved quality and with some bonus tracks.
