Question about 2 songs

I have a question about these 2 songs.Which LIVE version of "something in the water (does not compute) is best? So far I've only heard the birthday 84 version which is great and the 3rdeyegirl version from Botanique is sweet 2!
Also, I can't get enough of "Right back here in my arms" the extended unreleased version is cool but I was wondering if a much clearer version is in circulation and without the radio DJ talking over it?
Thanks

I have a video of 3rdeyegirl and Prince playing Something in the Water in Manchester UK it’s pretty immense, best version I have ever heard.

He did it at the North Sea Jazz Festival (3rd night) with Cassandra on piano. Beautiful!

Best version Something In The Water IMO: Manchester Academy 22/02/14. Starts off solo at the piano then rocks out with the chants 'must be something in the water ya drink.' Second half was put onto YouTube in soundboard. But maybe I'm biased as I was there.
.
The piano version with Cassandra at Montreux night 1 is very good also.
.
About Right Back Here In mY Arms; I'm sure the extended version is only around in low quality with DJ speaking on it

Re: SITW.... 84 Birthday show version is the best, IMHO. Manchester version is great, too. But that birthday show?! Holy. Shit.

Interesting that you asked this question as I made a playlist a few months ago with all of the live versions of this song. That this one song can be delivered in such different ways is just... well... amazing.

I. Love. This. Song.
