I can see where you're coming from... today's Sara is kind of a dumbed down version of the Sara of yore.
However, I like modern day Sara. I like the fact the piano is brought to the forefront. It's more dramatic and emphatic. I like the way the song is edited and sped up some. Makes it translate to the live setting so much better. Sara from the Tusk tour was long and slow... a real drag on the setlist (though it was beautiful!). Current day Sara is more engaging. It's just a tighter, more concise package... versus the wandering, drifting original.
