In January 2013, upon the relaunch of the band's official website, several old live recordings and demos were made available to the band's fans for the first time. Included among these were the original demos for The Madding Crowd.

These demos were recorded in 1998 and 1999 between the band's independently released album Three and their first mainstream hit, "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)."

1. Another Day
2. Absolutely
3. If I Am
4. Too Much Love
5. Esteem
6. Nobody
7. Revolve
8. Bring It Back (released as "Sometimes" on the studio release)
9. Day By Daybreak
10. Heart Defect
11. Side To Side (an early version of "257 Weeks")
12. Wanna Be
13. That's How You Are

Of the songs included in the demo album, five were later recorded and included on the actual release of the album in, more or less, an unaltered, though more produced, form. One more track, "Side To Side", carries the same melody and many of the same lyrics as "257 Weeks" but is not completely the same song.

While the tracks that remained nearly unaltered, the increased production is very evident on the official release of the album, especially on the tracks "Absolutely" and "Wanna Be." "Wanna Be" particularly is a faster track on the demo version, whereas the produced version is slower and more haunting.

• "Another Day" was included on the soundtrack of the 2001 film Summer Catch.

• Far from the Madding Crowd
