Keith's fills really stand out. More of an elastic bouncy version than leaden thumping one.

Played and sung like they really mean it. This one's got that "X factor."

Do not overlook this version. Equals or surpasses the other versions from '89-'91. Incredible molten jam.

I couldn't believe how good this version is. Can sometimes take or leave the song, but this is INCREDIBLE.

Tight, melodic, lovely. This one really grabbed my attention.

No kidding! Thunderous, yet melodic. Try it -- you'll like it.

Good version, but I believe it's played electric.
