Boy, though the original is good, I just can't get enough of this acoustic version. Ahhhhh.

This title needs to return to the section reviewing, for at least six months, to see what your panel of 'expert and very selective reviewers' , 30 or 40 members, has to say or vote on these performances...

Just crazy for sick minds. This song reveals the moment of decay across the world of music, like all Ga Ga that roam around. Diversity  and ecletic does not explain everything, while, in parallel, RP is "deaf ears" to the music of renowned quality, but from other sources than the American "fashion" market. This is the drug of today. Bahhhh. RP, do not go there ......

This version is a little boring—the original (non-acoustic) is much better...

Leave me when I'm at my worst

The Mitsubishi Eclipse. Nicely equipped at $21,475.

I like the club remix a little better, but this isn't bad.

This song just strikes me as a "why bother"? Nothing unique, notable, striking, unpleasant anything special about it. It just is.

Not that it would be unexpected, of course. Neil is no stranger to RP. Yes, I heard it too.

Nice cover...I like both versions. This sounds a bit more intense, though.

Bah! Tuned into RP today only to miss this spectacular version of a great (if slightly overexposed) tune.

Love the original, don't love the acoustic version quite as much but still like it a lot. And I'm impressed with this group for recording both.

No reason to be ebarassed. It's a good tune. It got beat around a bit a few years ago in mainstream media, but that's no less reason to like it.

I really like the techno version, but this one is great too. I did a mix combining the two versions and the combo was ausome. I dont think RP played the entire acustic song though. It is much longer.

I prefer this version, even though it leans toward the Creed/Live camp.

Well, if you're gonna get technical... :oops:

I guess I was wailing that day. PMS? Probably not - I'm a dude. Just seems to be a plethora of acoustic guitar on RP and not so much trance/trip hop/club music. Of course, at the moment, Elliott Smith's "Waltz #2" is playing, and that song's a masterpiece, so I'm fresh out of complaints.

Love both versions of this song. I always thought it did a wonderful job of using minimal lyrics for maximum effect. Just several lines repeated, and yet it paints a picture. There are always images conjured when I hear this song.

I like this version ... at first I thought it was one of the Finn brothers singing then I heard the chorous and I got what it was / who it was

Very nice... shows that they more talent I gave them credit for
