Love it and would love to hear it live but I'd guess the key would have to be lowered somewhat because even as strong as Jon's voice is now, I don't think he could pull off this vocal live anymore.

If they did, it would be interesting to do what version they would do: the Boxset version or the original? If they did the boxset version, they could lower the key to the same as the original. It would be like they never changed it!

I would like to see it live. It's a great song, IMO. The only thing that keeps it from being better is the lack of solo. I do like the cardboard cutout of Dave in the video.

Great song, I've always loved it. It did fail however and there's plenty of other songs I'd love to see the band try before this one.....

It's one of my most hated songs, in all honesty.

I don't recall hearing much of a difference between the box set version and the original?

The meat of the song is pretty much the same, bar an orchestral ending and a little change in vocals in the middle.
