Gerald, last weekend I saw TV Smith playing 33 songs in a row and deciding what he was going to play next just on a whim. Why the heck should I care about some perfectionist tosser called Lindsey Buckingham?
Ok, just kidding.
I think this is a great rendition of SUD even though it's slower than in the studio. I'm also glad that he kept the entire solo bit (the one in the Myspace 'promo video') intact. I have no problems whatsoever with the louder vocal bits ("LOHOOONG AS I CAN"), in fact I think they make a great contrast to the otherwise whispery nature of the song. BTLH was an uplifting and rousing closer to Lindsey's church service, SUD live has a bit of that too but it's more contemplative. And fine as it is this way.
Still makes one wonder why the hell did Lindsey edit SUD for the album though. Because he wanted them all to be roughly four minutes long like the songs on SYW?
Muchas gracias to Christy for recording this!
