LWS is better because of the lyrics. Old grey street is always > new grey street.

its not necessarily about the production for me - i just think the LWS version is better - i like stefans part more, i like the wailing more, and i like that it doesn't have the "and it breaks her heart" part

my $.02
Thank you for explaining to me why you feel that way. I like Stefan's bass tone better in the LWS version, but I think his bassline in the Busted Stuff version is much more captivating/appropriate. The LWS version seems to drag. Live, I loved the 4th chorus, but on the LWS I don't like it too much. The energy wasn't captured too well in my opinion, compared to some of the live stuff. Thanks for not being a dolt. :thumbsup:
haha no prob - and yeah the whole stefan point for me is obviously not coming from a bass player so you're probably listening to/hearing more of that than i am - i'm kinda biased too, the LWS version was my favorite song forever, kinda reminds me of a bunch of good memories and stuff

ok enough sappy shit - i just like it better :lol:

GSR: Which new grey street? I love the early 02 versions, with 3 choruses. I HATE the 03 - present version with two choruses. It's just rushed and too fast in my opinion. I liked the old ones with three verses and four choruses where he improv'ed lyrics and told a story the most, but I can't get into the studio LWS version.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the 2000/lillywhite versions were an orgasm of daveness.

not really. it was shot on 10/28 because of the summer tour. I'm sure he'll be okay, it's a relatively short winter tour.
