1981 vs. 1991 - a tough call?

Edge of Seventeen - Ten years apart but both amazing. Which does everyone prefer? I personally prefer 1981 because of Stevie's vocals but I prefer the arrangement on the 91 version. It's a very tough call.

I can't download the second one because it just goes to a page to delete the file. Can you repost the 91 version please?

I don't even have to listen - no contest for me. 1981 for sure. There are some decent '91 versions out there, but many more slightly off key or flat ones, IMO.

^ I agree. I think a harder one would be 91 or 01

81 was the top of her game for Gods sake!

EEK! Sorry - this is Edge 91!

Thanks. I haven't listened to both yet, but I'm pretty sure that I'm going to go with 81 because I love the Bella Donna era.

I love Bella Donna era too but I really like that version of Edge at the moment.

Ok, I listened to the 91 version and I must say it was awesome, even at 16 minutes, but I still go with 81 again because I love Bella Donna and her voice was, I'm not going to say 'better', but she had more power behind it I think. But that's just me.

1981... Stevie was more pissed off, and sang like it too!
