Two versions of ‘3’
/// the OG and version 2.0 ///
My composition ‘3’ is one of my most popular songs … it is probably the reason you got interested in my music in the first place.
However, what most people don’t realize is that the version most people know … isn’t the original recording !!!
I thought it might be fun to place the two versions side by side so you can take a listen and experience both.
The version everybody knows !!!
This is the recording from the ‘Voice = Power’ album … we had been playing this song for years at this point and it had become our ‘closer’ for live shows.
The Original Version !
THE OG ! This was the first time we ever played the song, also my band wasn’t fully formed just yet. The ending here isn’t a drum solo like the other version. Also, the instrumentation is a little different :)
Wasn’t that fun !
Which version do you like better ?
Let me know what you think - NK
BONUS CONENT !!!
You’ve made it this far … the rarified air of the superfan !
Since, you clearly are a true sonic explorer … I thought you might like to take an even deeper dive into the origins of ‘3’ … below is a video of my band performing Orrin Evans’ tune ‘Clean House’, which ‘3’ is loosely based on !!!
I like to hide exclusive content like this from time to time … ‘Easter Eggs’ they are sometimes called … keep an eye out in the future, you never know when I’m going to share something super rare :)
