    QWERTY. It's completely understandable why shortened the song and changed up the chorus. It sounds like a generic old LP song

    I liked the live version they played in Summer Sonic 2006 a lot better.

    From my iTunes library:
    QWERTY (Live) - 68 plays
    QWERTY - 5 plays

    I really dislike the studio version. Chester's screaming on the Live version made it God-like

    I love this song. My favorite version is the one LP played in Toronto 2007. I prefer Chester singing the chorus with his raspy voice instead of the 'clean' voice he used in Japan 2006. Just my opinion.

    Agreed the Toronto version is badass. So is that whole DSP. But I like both versions. I'm not really sure how you could dislike the studio version? It's not that much different. Maybe the live version has more energy?

    Summer Sonic 06 Live version takes the cake without a doubt IMO. Those are some of the best screams Chester has ever done. And the explosive energy coming off the song is amazing.

    Hmm...
    I don't know.
    I'm sorta confused. I mean, both studio and live versions are good; but in different ways.

    Well the whole chorus riff is different. I loved the harmonic on the live version and it's nonexistent on the studio

    I suppose your right! But despite subtle differences, I like them equally. Sometimes I'll be in a mood for one or the other.

    Edit: Ehh maybe I do like the Live one more.
