Default "She Smiled Sweetly" (Which Is Better?)

Which version is better?: this one or the one from Seeds We Sow (don't know whether I'm allowed to post the link to that version since it's on an official album): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2WI...J8Fwc8&index=5

People overlook just what a good voice Lindsey has. As much as his guitar (if not more so), what 1987-95 and 2018 have demonstrated is just how hard (if not impossible) it is to replace his voice.

I always thought he sounded like Kenny Loggins.

Which makes it all the more puzzling why he insists on modulating his voice so much on studio albums. IMO it almost ruins many great songs, especially on Under the Skin, and certainly makes the live versions much better. I wish he included live versions of Not Too Late, In Our Own Time, Seeds We Sow, and others instead of the studio cuts.

The worst is "Say Goodbye." So much better live.
