What are you listening to the single mixes through? Your regular home stereo system? In that case, then yes, the single mixes are going to sound a bit harsh. Now, if you listen to them through a car stereo or boom box, those single mixes will sound a whole lot better because that is what they were mixed to be heard through.
The extra electric guitar in SYLM is how Lindsey plays the song in concert...apparently, they mixed the single with that part enhanced to give it more of a "live" feel.
