    1. 1992 MTV Unplugged
    2. 1994 Atlanta
    3. 1998 LOTL
    4. 2006 Pittsburgh
    5. 2003 Mexico II
    6. 1995 Chicago
    7. 2003 Benaroya
    8. 2005 Ottawa
    9. 2003 Philadelphia
    10. 2003 Tokyo
    11. TEN (studio version)
    12. 1992 June 6th London, England Finsbury Park
    13. 2003 Buffalo
    14. chicago 2000

    I made this last a few years ago. I saved it because a thread like this always pops up. Can't have a top 20 list and not include some of the above. I noticed at the top 94 Atlanta didn't even crack his top 20, nor Ottawa 05?
    I guess he hasn't got around to hearing them. BTW, my list isn't necessarily in sequential order because they are all too great to rank. These are just some of my favorites off all-time

    Very cool...came here looking to see if there was anyone else who had Philadelphia 2003 on their list. Arguably, the best version of Black I've heard.
    Posimists. Fuck the pessimists...fuck'em.

    Hard to beat the Live On Two Legs version. That's when Mike started really going off in the song - during that tour. Still stands as one of my favorite guitar solos ever recorded.

    I think 95 is when that started.

    I heard a version on PJ Radio a few months ago and didn't catch which show it was from. I think it was from Germany, or maybe another European country. At the end Ed gets very personal about his former relationship. Does anyone know which show this was from?

    I was at Ottawa and the version is amazing. The only thing not perfect about it: Mike sort of gets lost during his solo, before the quiet sing-along section.

    Milwaukee 14 is incredible. Great solo and crowd-singing. And Ed's outro gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

    Detroit 14 version was great too. The "all is well that ends well, I hope I never have to see you again" part is so good.

    I was going to say Detroit as well. One of the better ones if seen live.

    Here's one with Boom from Eddie's solo show in Las Vegas 11/1/12 (tag incorrectly lists it as '13) that's beautiful -
