Seems to me like a slightly different mix. And the edit part is mostly just a fade-out where the solo would be.
For me it says it hasn't been released yet. I'm in the US so maybe a time zone thing where it comes out at midnight?

I'm glad I can't listen to it. That sounds like some kind of horrifying neutering of a beautiful beast.

its not a long song without the humble tag. Wreckage was longer i think, and this is right as the climax is ramping up. it strips the you can be loved/you can be love chanting, which is THE MESSAGE OF THE FUCKING SONG

Yeah, this was a catastrophically bad edit.

I’ve never understood this saying. Seems pretty easy to take something from a dead person.

It was made famous by Charlton Heston when he headed the NRA, and the idea is "You'll have to kill me first / I'd sooner die" - in his case, he was referencing the only situation by which he'd give up his guns.

Trust me, once the rigor mortis sets in, it's very hard to pry something from a dead person's hands.
