Black Cat because it's so fun on guitar, love that riff.

Although Sleep on it is a super close second.

Strange should really be included here...it's a totally different (and far superior) version of the song, and a true TLE classic...one of the last tunes they did in semi-traditional "rockabilly" style. In fact, the band THEMSELVES said that they much preferred it to Sleep On It but didn't want to be redundant for Aussie audiences who may have already heard the original version.

Sleep On It is a decent b-side to me.

i prefer the EP version of the song... more soul.

Agree EP Version is better IMO too.

Sleep on it isnt bad at all quite a catchy tune

Most of the drums in the Hellbound version of Strange are better too.

On the S/T version, Trav basically just mimicks Joe's original drum part at a higher tempo...but I guess I'll give you that one.

But honestly to me, all I have to do to realize which version is better is think about this...


Redux version: "Sometimes I stop, AND THINK FOR A WHILE!!!" *loud guitar thrashes over beat*

Original version: "Sometimes I stop...and think for a while" *silly animal noises, honking and/or hooting ensue for longer than a rational person might expect*

Need I say more??

I beg to differ...i'm not a drummer so I don't know the terminology, but there were alot of little fill/break type things that Joey did that were alot more interesting than Travis just playing through at break-neck speed. It's one of the only examples i can think of where Trav didn't out-weird his predecessor

Oh, and the strange animal noises and hooting sounds are actually the Melbourne Tramway...don't be dissin'!

The original solo is better in the original too. I like the quiet one..less predictable.

They both contain the jazzy (inspired by Chris studying at TAFE at the time) solo leading into the Chuck Berry/Michael J. Fox in Back To The Future guitar solo.
