I Believe has always been a tough song to sing for Jon, even on the Faith tour there were terrible versions where Jon could hold the song. I heard it for the first time in Amsterdam '03 and it was great, it was almost, or just as good as the '95 versions.

I believe Amsterdam 2003 was better than few 95 versions i agree totally with that .. and what is even more incredible is HOW Jon decided to sing the song .... it was NOT planned to make the setlist .. but the SPECIAL banner he saw in the crowd "touched" him like all the fans making banners would dream to be "read" .... ...

so if we think about HOW he was "asked" to perform the song he did a damn good work !!

I know it wasn't planned. I made the banners.

I don't have many concerts to go by either, but I think Blaze Of Glory has been ruined a little due to Jon's voice (the One Last Wild Night 2001 version is aweful IMO) and yeah, In These Arms isn't quite as good as earlier versions.

Bed Of Roses to me always seems to sound sloppy live, just going by the Crush Tour DVD and OLWN 2001 and just kills the emotion of the studio version.

None

I still think Jon“s voice sounds incredible - also without the high notes :P

In These Arms should never be played again. As much as I love the studio version, and older live recordings, it is simply a disappointment to hear these days. It was the one songs that I came away from a show in 2003 thinking, "... and that one *needs* to be dropped!".

It's My Life loses something when live. I agree with Radio, I've heard it live 3 times and I cringe everytime. Also:

Blaze of Glory
Bad Medicine
Bounce
Bad Name.....lol, all B's
I've heard Living In Sin on the Yokohama bootleg and it sounded horrible.

Not that I like the original either, but Misunderstood live is awful!

But I quite enjoy Saturday Night
