I just listened to both and still can't decide. I think I have to go with ToT, but it could change.

Me too. I'm actually leaning toward Pretty Noose but...

if somebody left you out on a ledge
If somebody pushed you over the edge
If somebody loved you and left you for dead
You got to hold on to your time till you break
Through these times of trouble

This one is very tough. Pretty Noose is just blistering. It has somehow improved with age for me. And, Times of Trouble is just an amazing Cornell performance that immediately takes me back to that era.

If I'm listening to the studio versions, I'd almost always want to hear Pretty Noose over Times of Trouble. But, if I was at a live performance I'd rather hear Times of Trouble.

I'll give the vote to Pretty Noose today. But, there is no wrong pick here.

I know I'm the oddball here, but I never really cared for Pretty Noose.

They're both pretty great, but Pretty Noose takes it easily.

Times of Trouble. That last vocal passage is insanely good and stripped to the bone honest.
