FunkNRoll - Studio Version Discussion

Studio version is circulating, ripped from the radio station.

Fantastic song!!! Loving the pitched up vocals. The studio version is even better than the live version.

I seriously like it! And so would most of the people who are going to rip it apart if it had been released as a newly discovered 1987 bootleg...

This is the second song that makes me think of LoveSexy for one reason or the other... Lots of playfulness going on, and, indeed: better than the live version.

This song is really a positive surprise! Great fun. The ending is crazy - in a good way!

I agree, this is better than the live version. This song and Wow are going to be a great way to open and close the album... Let's hope everything in between is as good!

I love it, it makes me think that the Arsenio version was actually live and not a backing track

Love it.

I enjoyed the live version but the studio version is amazing. It reminds me of 3121 and It also brings to mind the black album.

I can not wait to get the new album.

Yeah I'd say Arsenio was definitely a live version, of course I have not tracked these studio versions down to compare ...yet. wink
