Personally I think Phonestrap 1 is the best, the other versions are just remixes imo.

I agree about all of it. I thought the May 2006 broadcast version with the "Maggie is a doll and I'm a big sister" lyrics is the best yet. The newer ones aren't bad, but I love that bassline and those lyrics. Although Karl really sung his heart out at the Brighton show with the new version/new lyrics.
I love how UW releases songs like this to us their adoring fans. In stages so you can see how the song evolves. I tend to like the simpler/original versions best though. Cases in point Telematic Peel, Phonestrap, Biro the Leggy. (Although I do love Beautiful Burnout, but to me it is totally different then Biro the Leggy).
