Back in the Fears > Back in the Fears?

[potatobroth]

The Back in the Fears version in the Electraglide Tokyo gig (last track of disc 2) is by FAR superior to the Back in the Fears included in the most recent RiverRun Project.

The RRP version has no emotion to it and just comes across as a bumper to the next track where as the Electradlide version is all about emotion. Karl's sung lyrics atop the repeating ones is what makes this track powerful; the background is meaningless without the foreground. The breakdown in the Electraglide version is some powerful stuff and the mini buildup really punches home this fantastic track.

Its almost hard to believe they are the same song. Goes to show that a subtle difference can really make or break a track.

So 4.5/5 stars for Back in the Fears. And 2/5 stars for Back in the Fears.
