Eve Appreciation Thread

[wasteland]

This thread is so much clearer on the firt page.

Well, once again, in the 20th anniversary of the live debut of this song, I reiterate my undying love for this song

It will be locked if people keep bumping it just for the sake of bumping rather than having actual discussion.

Here's some discussion: Why do you guys think they dropped the samples for the studio version?

[wasteland]

No idea. Maybe they found the spoken wordsto overshadow the instrumentation, shift the focus out of the song. I would disagree with such a thesis, by the way.

Or maybe they didn't get the rights to use them? Personally I don't mind the lack of samples, Eve is excellent enough without them.

[darkshade]

I agree.

I love the song both ways, but those spoken samples for some reason make me resonate. They shift the song on an impreceptibly higer level

I agree. I had no idea that there was a version with samples at first, so when I heard the version with the samples, I was blown away. They add so much depth to the song that it's amazing. Especially the middle part that ends with "Guide us on to our Lord Jesus - guide us home." and then the guitar ends is too beautiful for words.

I much prefer it without samples.

(me uploaded the gig btw). Such a great beautiful song. I love with our without samples, even though I've heard the version without samples most times .

Ah, yes, that's Milwaukee! It's a lovely performance, I love how the wind compliments the mood of the song blowing Kevin's and John's hair.
