Alright, you've got me - I love them all, every one! I'm just splitting hairs here! The Gord's Gold version was the first one I heard, and loved, for many years. There's a depth there, yes, vocally, and more. And it's partly in the tempo, isn't it? It just keeps getting slower ... and the Live in Reno - the slowest, and there's something there - depth, emotional depth that just got me the first time I heard it, very unexpectedly, because I thought I knew this song already, since twenty years! But I'm listening to the original now on repeat play while I write - and how could I ever live without this? It's never a matter of "either/or" completely, is it?
