Stone singing is always going to knock a song down a few notes for me. Just not a fan of his voice. So Lukin by default, though I like it fine for what it is. Slow Lukin is pretty great

Lukin from that ‘95 Australia show is by far the best version of the song.

I find Eddie almost unlistenable from the 95 tour. I really don't like it

Sunburn is easily the correct choice here.

I mean there’s something to this. For whatever reason, Eddie really screamed his way through at least a good portion of Soldier Field, the best known of the 95 shows and at least a few others. The heft his voice had during the 94 tour seemed missing, but the more melodic live voice that started in 96 and flourishes in 98 hadn’t quite yet arrived (exception the slow start to the second Red Rocks show). He was really pushing through on fury through that year.stip wrote:I find Eddie almost unlistenable from the 95 tour. I really don't like it

Lukin. What a little treasure.

That's part of the appeal for me; his voice matches how the band sounds that year, which is a band constantly restitching itself together from show to show to keep itself from falling apart. It's not the extremely tight version of the band we'd see in '98, but there's some times when I want that kind of chaotic, ramshackle energy that they never really captured before or since. I feel like when you walk into a PJ you don't know what songs you're going to get, but the atmosphere of some '95 shows (or at least what I've heard) vary wildly.liebzz wrote:I mean there’s something to this.

I'm torn here; initially, I'd planned to give it to Sunburn here, but I wonder if I'm holding Lukin's brevity against it, when it's doing exactly what it needs to do.

Sunburn is so great. Easy vote.

"Lukin" is one of my least favorite album tracks. I've never been a fan of how it feels like a breathless race to be finished. "Sunburn" is a pretty little tune that I've grown to appreciate more over time. I don't know how it will fare if it makes it out of this round, but it's getting my vote for now.

I enjoy Sunburn, but for me this is ...
"Aw, that's nice." vs. "Mother fuckin' fuck yeah, fuckers!"

This is another one of those non album songs that is gonna get buried by inferior album tracks. Sucks.
Sunburn is top tier.
