Completely agree. I actually do like the studio version of BWC quite a bit. The chorus is undeniable. It really only loses me when it gets to the "We caaaaan, We caaaaan" bridges. Drop that or replace it with an actual cool bridge and we're good. That live version just dragged. It was the first time I began thinking, "Well, I guess it's all about the studio albums from this point forward." (TWTWMM was one of the exceptions.)

So far that isn't the case at all with THINFS songs. I've only disliked the Ellen performance of the title track, otherwise I've been happy with it.
