Eddie's vocals in Footsteps do outshine Cornell's in Times of Trouble.
it's as if Times of Trouble were recorded in a rusty cage

glad to know everyone else is also aware they are basically the same song, musically anyway. but put ed's voice over anything and you've got pure gold.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
I listened to Times of Trouble for the first time in at least 10 years the other day, and even though I generally find Chris Cornell's whiny screech insufferable, it is still a fine song. I'd forgotten there was harmonica on it! I wonder if that's what inspired Ed to start adding it to Footsteps?
To answer the question: it is a close one, but I definitely prefer Footsteps

Probably go with Footsteps for the bare production. Times of Trouble is perhaps a bit too polished.

This belongs in another thread, but I'm going to go ahead and say, again, that the Newark show was great. The rest of that day sucked, and I was wet and cold for most of the show, but the guys sounded freaking fantastic.
All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.
yeah I like Footsteps but they played Wash and then they played Times of Trouble back to back on PJ radio, I thought it was a mistake, the intros are exactly the same I never noticed that before.

I like the anthemic quality of Times of Trouble, it harkens back to the power ballad roots where Soundgarden originated. I like the piano in it too. I like Footsteps too b/c I love Eddie's voice. I bumped it b/c they just played them on PJ radio (internet not Sirius) almost back to back.
