HE NAILS THIS!!

TRIBUTE TO NEIL - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPZRV27yakU


ground on down - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ycYc5Ll2No

the percussion guy is soooo funny!!

Heard this song on tour when he supported with PJ, i heard it the odd times (saw him about 8 times with PJ on that tour) and it just instantly hit me..I tried to find the best version, i've been through so many as he changes song all the time, this is the best. Couldn't wait for the studio version but it's not as good at this:

I will not be broken - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iK9idVFFVFA

Up to you now, one of my all time faves.

The 'yeah yeah yeah's at the start are so good! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsg00HS_1_g


His cover of 'drugs don't work' on the live from mars is fucking brilliant, the echo and his voice
Binaural is the best album. 2000 is the best tour ever. Bring back the Ayotte!

Which you prefer? The swift beated version or the version like you just posted?

I first heard the song live like you posted and think I prefer it rather to the the heavier version.

EDIT this is actually a 3rd kinda version you just posted.

Yeah, I agree with you - I'm digging this version probably the most.

Ah yes that version is with Criminals, the Relentless 7 version is the better one:

I like his earlier stuff..like Fight for your Mind & Welcome to the Cruel World, but there's a good mix from both of those albums on Live from Mars, so I would recommend this if you want more of the "get down/funk" stuff...

or this if you want more "straight rock, guitar driven stuff"...i love them both...just depends on your mood...
