I don't like how the snares sound in the studio version. Too thinstip wrote:That was my second choiceFarmer John wrote:Elderly Woman...
I've never heard a live version I liked, but the studio version is perfect.
It's also kind of annoying how Ed does a self-fade vocally at the end there

Re: Best studio performance
This is the first song that came to mind. Followed closely by Tremor Christ. I've never heard a live version of either of those songs that delivers the way the studio versions do. In My Tree is another that comes to mind.Rob wrote:No Way is a song where I feel the studio version could never be replicated elsewhere.

Rearviewmirror and Insignificance come to mind.

Re: Best studio performance
Yeah, Insignificance is a good one, too. Though I think I've probably heard a live version or two that holds up.

They've never matched the studio versions of Sad or Hold On, either.

Re: Best studio performance
For those of you saying Go, I'm curious what your thoughts are of hearing it live.
Not on a boot but at the show.
The studio recording of Go is special in its own right.
I've been floored by Go live, and that was in 2014. I can't imagine how powerful that song was at a show in the mid 90s.
Live recordings don't do Go justice.

Strangest Tribe
The atmosphere in the studio track will never be replicated live and Eds voice is on point. Same for Fatal, Otherside, Ler me Sleep...
As for album tracks that had a good amount of live performances, I'd say Sleight of Hand, No Way, State of love and Trust (ok, unplugged is great).... Go is great live. The studio version just dont keep the weight of the intro/chorus in the verses...
