I do really love party Why Go, but it's nice to be reminded of how this song used to feel a bit dangerous.

this may require multiple listens. Both of these are really good - and long road is a song that I think is often better live

Ah, both of these are so good. They are fine examples of different PJ moods for me. Ill go with Why Go, because fuuuck this version is intense.

Well, fuck me. This version of Why Go just shreds. This is the best era of aggressive PJ with Ed at his peak gnarly.

I can’t be mad at anyone voting for Long Road. That’s a wonderful performance of a very good song.

Why Go for me. This is one of the few tracks where the audio quality wasn't quite up to the standard of other Ten-era versions, but the performance demanded it's inclusion as the definitive version

Long Road for the win, though that's another song I think reached its' peak in 2000. The version on Touring Band is as good as I've ever heard it.
