Empty Room I'm really into the live versions of this track at the moment but I can't decide which is the best version - maybe Montreux 2009. Any opinions on this? | |

Montreux for mine. Very powerful and the guitar solo is sweet. I just can't believe all the things people say ! |

He played at the Hammersmith Odeon in 2002. It was the most amazing thing I ever heard. | |

The performance of which Andy Allo posted on her facebook.
Even though it was only a snippet, that scream alone makes the performance. | |

^ Let's hope Prince releases the whole video performance of this performance | |

Yeah, I meant that one. The good one. "Climb in my fur." | |

Absolutely. All other versions pale in comparison, IMHO. So raw and fierce. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.
Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected. Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamine. | |

Definitely the version from C-Note. Like theblueangel said, fierce and raw. It has the same vibe as The Darling Nikki "performance" in the Purple Rain movie, in the sense that it's easy to imagine him walking onto the stage and singing it directly to the person that inspired the lyrics. It is close to the top of my favorites list and it was only made better for me when I heard the bootleg of the soundcheck it came from; no apparent overdubs or significant post production on it. | |
