This is always a song that I haven't paid enough attention to until it comes on and I am floored nearly every time... this one especially is fantastic

Most unique version ever? So much emphasis on every note, my goodness this send shivers down my spine. Can't wait for Dave's Picks 33! Also just read the thread between you two reviewers from earlier in the year and I'm happy you guys are finally getting your wish!

Love this show but I'm imagining what it would've been like to be there and i would've gone crazy with all of the teases in this!
