Absolutely love the evolution of the band over the years, however, they will never play this song as good as they did here:

"...and the barrel waits, trigger shakes, aimed right at my head..."

"Leave it to me as I find a way to be.
Consider me a satellite forever orbiting.
I knew all the rules but the rules did not know me.
Guaranteed."

    Love this version and am one of the fans that absolutely loves the Unplugged performances....but this is a song that I prefer to be plugged in. I agree that the earlier performances were best for this particular song.
    Damn, Mike is amazing in this video on that acoustic~!
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    I really wish they would do an official unplugged release. I know its available in awesome quality already on the net, but that performance is so powerful it needs to be recognized with its own release.

    My favorite performance of my favorite song ever. I still remember seeing this video for the first time. It cemented my love for PJ.
