I hate Want live... I'm not sure if he changes the lyrics on purpose or on accident, but I much prefer the studio version. Plus the drums are never as good live on Want.
My vote would have to be Watching Me Fall - I liked it way more when I saw it live.
I have had the 2016 Disintegration Set that was gifted to us on repeat in the basement. I am rather stuck on it and have become a little like the main character in The Rosie Project. I can listen to the same song over and over with no problem.
Before Three is a real discovery for me in this tour. I must admit, I had never heard it before. Along with my propensity to save The Cure album purchases for emergencies, I was a little scared to venture into "new" songs because I was afraid they would water down the band's legacy (for me). I was so wrong! I really love Before Three live, the drums and bass especially. What a beautiful song. ... After about 100 listens, I got onto my computer to check out the studio version. It is nothing like the live one. I am so glad they played it live. In fact, they played it in Cologne, but I didn't quite catch on until it was with me in my little cave.
Thanks a million for including it in your compilation, TCC.
I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned sooner to be honest. I started listening to the studio version a lot more during the tour, but the live arrangement was outrageously good. 6 & a half minutes of voodoo thunder
