I love Siouxsie but Peek A Boo doesnt even come close to my fave Banshees (or Creatures) singles, like Hong Kong Garden, Christine, Spellbound, Arabian Nights, and especially Cities In Dust. If any can do it it's Dear Prudence...

So sadly Kate gets zero points from me despite Breathing being easily one of the best in the list. The list needs some variety. (by the way there's no apostrophe in Dexys  )

QUOTE(Severin @ Jun 10 2015, 05:44 PM) Because Springsteen is notoriously crap live...? You should check it out, it's the definitive version for me I know it pretty well (was a middling hit at the time), but the original Phil Spector-esque version can't be improved on, it's perfectly Epic with a capitol E from start to finish. Live (recordings) versions of classics are no substitution for me, I have never seen the point except as a souvenir of a concert experience. Live versions of non-classics, on the other hand, can often be improvements as I don't have that big love to compare against. Seeing someone in concert is another thing entirely, of course...
