The outro is interminable. Unnecessary noodling. And that's coming from someone that loves Goose.

yeah, I don't like the outro, but the rest is good. I like the regular OTE outro like the live dublin recording.

I don't think I've heard the Third Man Record version, but out of all the live shots on youtube, the Dublin version from f'ing 15 years ago (wow) is still the best. I've long wished they could recapture the energy/flow of that performance in the studio. Probably not possible but still holding out hope for a halfway decent studio version one day...

man i wish i had that third man vinyl

But there IS a halfway decent studio version available

Eddie sounds dreadful in that Third Man version.

Indeed, the circular file has plenty of room.

Strangely there's something over the past month that has made me warm to this track.

Is this the same version that we already had?

Of the Earth from the Karaoke leak doesn’t have a recording date.

I hope is a different version! Someone kind enough...?

Same version as karaoke, the date is in the ID3 tag.

Great track, great version. Don't understand the band's aversion to releasing it but I guess it'll be a centrepiece of another Lost Dogs collection when released. Along with the similarly brilliant Last Word.

I love this song, I wish they would play it more. Works anywhere mid main set on down.
