Shut Us Down: Elizabethtown Version
Unfortunately, both iTunes AND Amazon mp3 are selling the long version of Shut Us Down from the Elizabethtown soundtrack only if you buy the whole album, rather than as an individual download.
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone can speak to the differences between the Elizabethtown version and the Under the Skin version. Is the longer Elizabethtown version worth 10 bucks?

I believe that version has the extended bridge/guitar solo part. You should be able to find it on youtube, so I'm not sure about it being worth ten bucks. But I will say that that guitar part is one of my all time favorite Lindsey moments. I just think it is an absolutely brilliant part. He does play the solo part live, but it's a dumbed down and simplified version of it.
I respected his whole "no lead guitar" decision on Under the Skin completely - I thought it was a pretty bold conceptual idea. But I was sad that Shut Us Down had to be shortened because of it. Edit: Actually I don't see it on youtube anymore. It must have been on his own channel, but he took everything down awhile back. I'm pretty sure I have it on a mp3 somewhere, but we're not allowed to share commercially available stuff on here... What to do...

I was literally going to post the exact same question. I've also been searching for this version and have unfortunately come up empty-handed.

Yes, it's worth it. Elizabethtown is one of my favorite soundtracks. Lots of great stuff on there besides Shut Us Down. I discovered Ryan Adams and Patty Griffin because of this soundtrack. Some great tracks by Tom Petty I'd never heard, love the I-nine song as well. Buy it! The actual CD is only 8.99 on Amazon.

It is worth it because the soundtrack is excellent on a whole and I personally find the longer version superior. I think Shut Us Down is a beautiful song. Go to Amazon and listen to the clips of the other songs to make a decision, though.

^^^We should do a list of all the soundtracks on which Mac-related songs first appeared.
What's better: "Holiday Road" or "Twist of Fate"?

I'm glad you did TrueFaith! I think you'll enjoy the other songs on the album. If you haven't heard Tom Petty's Square One, well, I'll just say it's gorgeous. And so is My Father's Gun by Elton John (old school Elton). And the Ryan Adams tune, Patty Griffin's, and the Hombres song are all awesome.
I think LB's and TP's (newer) song are the standouts on the album for me.

How is it I never noticed there was a difference between the Elizabethtown Shut Us Down and the Under The Skin one? I guess because I probably listened to UTS just a couple of times. I think it's the weakest material Lindsey ever released.
 The Elizabethtown soundtrack however is just wonderful. The songs are just stellar. For anyone who hasn't seen the movie, go rent it NOW!! It'll make you laugh and cry... at the same time lol. It's one of the neatest little movies I've ever seen. I'm not usually one for soundtrack albums, but this one is just very special to me.

lol! Louie, it's fascinating how opinions vary so. I couldn't stand that movie one bit, but I absolutely agree with your summation of the soundtrack (though NOT UTS).
My favorite film with an LB song will always be National Lampoon's Vacation. Back when Chevy Chase was funny.

Back to the Future is the best MOVIE with a Lindsey song -- just not the best Lindsey song. (p.s. - I also like Vacation)

I really don't know what to say about Holiday Road. I'm glad he has a song that everyone knows. I love the video, love the exposure for LB, but I don't know what I think of that song. I don't know what I would think of the song if it just appeared on an LB album. It's like Don't Stop. I can't have an independent opinion of it anymore. It's just too poppy and popular. Michele
