Seeds We Sow (Acoustic) vs. Seeds We Sow (Electric)
 
Lindsey should have done a Neil Young and opened the album with one version (I'd recommend acoustic) and closed with another (I'd prefer the album to go out with a bang: Electric). If he had, it would have been my favorite Lindsey solo album of all time.

Anyway... if you had to choose a favorite, choose now!

I really enjoy the chorus of the electric version, but the way he sings the verses just make me hear the album version, which I find to be far more affecting.

It makes sense for the acoustic version to be on the album, but I like the electric version more.

It should have both. I'll do Neil Young poll later, I guess. :lol:

I made a collection of non album tracks, and put the two versions of "Given Thing" at the beginning and end.

This track is an itunes exclusive yeah? Can you download this track on its own or do you have to get the whole album? I already have a physical copy of the album and don't want to have to get the whole thing again just for one track....

I like electric better, but I don't think it belongs on the album. Too weird. But good as an adventure and a variation that can only be appreciated when you have the original to compare to it.

I like the electric version well enough. But I just can't get past the fact that the music reminds me so much of an 8 bit video game. "And the "wah wah" sound effect just makes me feel as though he's recorded it with Frogger....

You can get it on its own.
