No scolding, I don't listen to it very much. Mostly because I like to listen to it when I can really just chill out and pay lots of attention to it, and I don't always have an hour to devote to David.

I actually heard David's before I ever heard the band version, which might be part of the reason I like it so much better (although a very small part, if at all). Totally blew me away. The first time I heard the band version I was actually kind of disappointed. I like it more now than I did then.

Weird as it might sound, considering there's actually more to the band version as far as instruments, I feel like it's lacking in comparison. I think it's the way David sings it compared to the way Jon sings it. Jon puts a lot of emotion into it, but next to how crazy intense David is it doesn't sound like it so much.

And David's "your clothes are still scattered all over the room..." part just kills me.

I do like the band version, it's just in comparison it falls flat (at least for me).
