One of the cooler versions I've heard, the tempo is way different than any other version I've heard. Worth a listen!

Seeing the Sunshine Daydream video takes it to a new level. I don't know if Phil's voice ever sounded better than this version!

If I could tab one of the moments in GD history this song would be it. The first time I heard it it was immediately burned into my soul forever. Beyond beautiful!
