Which version of 29 x The Pain do you prefer, 1st or 2nd?

Right now I'm leaning towards the original recording. Its so raw and sparse. Plus the ending... it catches you off guard, but its such a happy suprise.

i do like them both but i agree with you with the "raw" sound

i prefer that to the studio sound of that song

Hold on, more people prefer the re-recording?? That cant be right! The original is much better, they keyboards and the emotion is there in the original, far more than the 2nd version.

And what about the re-mixed The Wildhearts: The Works version of the Suckerpunch single version, which sounds halfway between the SP one and the FFL '96 remix? Eh? EH?

I was half-listening to it the first time I listened to The Works and thought I was hearing the '96 version until the Duck Song came on. I like The Works version for combining the warmth of the '93 one with the increased rockiness of the '96 one.

So stick that up yer poll!

I didn't realise there was more than one version

Original version for me, much like I prefer the original lyrics to I Wanna Go, even though the final version is a really great song

Cannae vote - both on an even level for me. Would love to hear some newer versions of a few older songs but not at the expense of new songs.
