There is a simple answer to your question. There were to be only 20 songs. Rhino did the original selection of material; Gord didn't have a chance to get involved until very late in the process. He was only able to make one change - and that was to replace Talking In Your Sleep with Restless. You can read Gord's comments on that in the interview I did with him last March (see the link on the main page of my web site).
So you have to blame Gord! I, for one, have no complaints. Restless is a great song and the Waiting For You CD is out of print. With it on the Complete Greatest Hits CD, many people will get a wonderful and unexpected treat.
