I like the acoustic arrangement, I would like a different recording of the vocals along, they seem too loud with the more quite guitars, but is still nice.

This version is so much better, I actually somewhat enjoy the song now.

BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL.

THIS SHOULD HAVE COME AFTER UFO. :O

And then Up In Flames.

It would've been, like, the quiet before the storming of DLIBYH! :L

 

After only one listen I think I can say that I absolutely agree with you :)

 

Great job guys! :thumbsup:

It sounds 10000x better! I like it! :D

I don't think it's better, the original is much more powerful, and the only "not that good" thing on the original is still on this versio, Rihanna's vocals.

I really like that.

sounds so awesome! i love it!

Liking the acoustic!

Yeah!! acoustic P.O.C is so much better then the original one!

I gave up... My network doesn't want to help me...

The acoustic version is so much better.

 

Why did they overproduce it?

The acoustic version is so much better.

 

Why did they overproduce it?

 

For money :thinking:

For money :thinking:

 

Maybe. But I feel like although the overproduced version would do better in the chart-- surely they could see that the untampered version sounded better? Success vs. music itself-- I'd chose the music.

I really like this version!

Thank you so much for uploading!

the overproduced version would do better in the chart

 

better in the chart = more money :)

I like the acoustic version, but as to why choose the "overproduced" version, I actually like that version better, love the power of that version and that version goes better with rihanna's voice, the tempo of the song and with the lyrics imo and I think it fits better in the story on the album, especially because it's between two very quiet songs.

So about the discussion of them choosing money over music, it IS a possibility that they actually thought the "overproduced" version is better or at least fits better on the album in this way.

It makes me remember the show at Grammy Awards. But this is better. Love it. :)
