    This thread would have been much better with a poll.

    Yeah, didn't think about the poll feature.

    I don't like. I like the deep, brooding voice. The lyrics are made for that attitude.

    But more importantly, I'm not a fan of ending shows on Indifference. To me, it's a song that I listen to in a darkened room, burning one. I don't like it with the lights on at all. Just doesn't feel right. I've been thinking about this for a while. I would love for them to play it coming out of Encore 1 or even an opener. Then I could light one up then and there.

    I like it because it looks/sound like they are both really having fun. Love BH but it isnt very representative of his singing. He doesnt sound so great.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Never ever enjoyed Ben on Indifference. Regular version is much preferred.

    Love Ben on red mosquito and a lot of his own stuff. Not a fan of him on indifference. I would love to see him do the chant with Ed at the end of a full W.M.A though. Hey a guy can wish, until then I really dig this(unrelated).

    I'm not a big fan. My favorite versions are from the studio, the Melbourne 98 bootleg or even the Atlanta '94 bootleg. Ed kicks so much ass on the song. I didn't even see it played live until Seattle 09 (which was almost my 20th PJ show). Ben Harper opened that show and I really wanted to see indifference but I really wanted to hear Ed sing it. Luckily that's how it turned out.

    Ed owns the song, so I really prefer to him hear sing the whole thing.
