My intention here is to set a rarities list of all Liam Finn and Liam-related projects. This will be an ongoing process that I will edit from time to time (much as I have done with Tim Finn and Neil Finn -- though I need to update those, as I have discovered some errors.)

I have bolded in red those entries which I'm unsure of. If there are any Liam Finn fans out there who have information about those, or any entries to add to this list, please let me know,  I will add your information

There was this time between betchadupa and I’ll be lightning when Liam toured with Matt and they called themselves Lester Osbourne. They were playing as a support act for the postponed leg of the European tour with the Finn brothers.
They had a MySpace page with the songs “bad day/ bad luck”, “something I’ve been” and “remember when” on it. The first song being a Betchadupa type of song like “Design”. The second song is a track that could have been included on ill be lightning. I saw them play theses track live in 2005 in Groningen.

There's a Daytrotter Studios session which was released in 2011 which consisted of live performances of: Honest Face, Won't Change My Mind, I'll Be Lightning and Second Chance.

A studio version of Slade's "Merry Christmas Everybody" also featuring Elroy Finn was released in 2018 on the "A Christmas Miracle" charity album on Valentine Recording.

A live version of "Second Chance" featured on a 2013 compilation album Other Voices: Series 7, Vol. 2".

The cover of Arthur Russell's "This Love Is Crying" featuring Peter Zummo and the Modern Lovers' Ernie Brooks is from the Arthur Russell tribute album "Red Hot + Arthur Russell".

The Live with the Dream Team songs were recorded in 2014 on the rooftop of The End recording studios in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and also featured Kirin J. Callinan.

There's also a largely instrumental song "Enlightenment" from a 2015 short called Wilhja's Enlightenment.

Thank you for this excellent info. I will redo my list and incorporate all this information in about a month (waiting to see if more info rolls in and also am scheduled to go on another Liam bent at the end of January.

I assume the 2018 "Merry Christmas Everybody" is different than the earlier one? (which has applause at the end and was -- I think --  taken from the RocKwiz show.)

Yes, this is a studio version which was recorded in December 2018 in Hollywood, California for the "A Christmas Miracle" compilation of seasonal songs which featured Liam and Elroy and several musician friends of the Finn family including Kirin J Callinan, Mac Demarco, Molly Lewis, Weyes Blood.. :
