Black vs. Brother

Brother is not very good.

Black 365 days of the year.

C'mon.

I never want to hear the studio version of Black again, too much melodrama.

Brother, I guess, though there’s Ten outtakes I like better.

yep

I like Brother quite a bit. But Black is just super.

Black is one of the best songs is my lifetime

I can buy into this. And Mike seems to have backed off the end solo after 2003 or so. But from 1998-2003, the live versions of Black elevate it far above its studio cut.

Also, someone noted the sly pairing Oceans with Deep. Please tell me the same thing didn’t happen here.

You're right.

It's great!

I actually like Brother a lot, even if it may reeks of early PJ a bit, but Black is just in another league. Dude, what a fucking amazing song.
