Default Best live version of Keep The Faith

I just listened to the version from Giants 2001 and I know that many people think it is the best performance of that song the band has ever done, but I can't really make up my mind about it.

The 2000/2001 tour had some really good performances (I really like the one from the Crush dvd)

In the beginning of the Keep the Faith era the song was alright but not really special, that being said, I think the Milton Keynes performance from 1993 was awesome.

And speaking of recent ones: Frankfurt 2008 and o2 night 2 were the best versions from what I can recall (Haven't been to Frankfurt but was pretty impressed when I looked it up on youtube.

So, what are your choices? Anything I'ver missed? Still need to increase my bootleg collection

Giants 01, forsure, followed Shepherds Bush 02 and then the one from OWN Live. Faith from Giants Stadium is the best performance the band has given in their entire career, IMO. They're all REALLY into it, and the jungle screams and the crowd wailing from the fireworks make it brilliant.

This gets honorable mention, too.

London '95.

It's my favourite song but I'm not crazy about it live as nowadays they hardly do it justice.

NMS Stadium Night 2 from 2010 is one of the best, especially from the modern (post-2000) era.

KTF is a strange beast, it requires Tico, Jon and Richie to be firing on all cylinders for it to work. Sadly more recently Richie has fumbled his way through the outro solo and not put much emphasis on beating the guitar up.

There is a great live version from 93 off the Real Life single. It's got great energy. Can't find it though.. Something like this -

That was a good year for different versions - I love that one too. I love all the 2003 big boom versions especially.

Anaheim 2003
San Jose 2003
Charlotte 2003
Glasgow 2003
Amsterdam 2003
Hyde Park 2003
Columbus 2003 precursor version
Raleigh 2003 smaller version
Alpine Valley 2003

And I think KTF from Giants 2001 is magnificent.
