They don't have this version on Spotify or Google Music. It's a shame, this is my favorite version. The drumline is totally different, and baseline stronger. I got very used to it, since it's the first MP3 I've had of the song since the 2000's, always in my collections of alternative, but it's not in streaming services! UPDATE: Since Google Music became RU-vid Music, all music videos on YT are available audio only this one can be added to playlist. It's great! Update: It's 2024, and every time I hear the "Release" version on the radio or somewhere else I just wish it was this one. Drums are just better, everything is better. Ultimately I just come hear and cleanse my ears.
Part of this version survives to the present day - listen to the drums in this version, the "final" studio version, and then compare both to how the band does the song live. Ronnie's been using the more active drum part from *this* version ever since at LEAST the Day and Age tour when they pepped up the live version.
Thank you so much for uploading, I have very fond memories of when this first song came out and I was telling a friend I felt like no one else knew of this version! I much prefer the drums on this version
@@anonymoususer8072 Actually just learned this, the one on the album IS the original. They re-recorded it (this version) to appease the label they signed with at the time. But this version didn't take too well to critics and listeners, especially those that had already heard the original, so they scrapped it and the version we know today is what made it on the album.
damn this is the version I used to listen to as a kid but I never realized the version Ive been listening to since was different but I always thought there was something missing
Finally I find a version of this song where the audio isn't messed up, specially in the beginning I can only hear one side of my headphones in every "official" version of the song.
I guess its because rock songs are usually mixed to have two guitars playing in stereo, one on the left and one on the right, to give it a wider sound. The right guitar track comes in later, thats why you can only hear the left one first.
