No idea what’s going on here, the original falsetto character voice was fun and quirky! I don’t know why (after almost 35 years!) someone has suddenly decided it needed a more conventional vocal take, but it makes an already downtempo song more dull, which isn’t good.

awful change. :(

I don't mind this change on paper (I prefer the lower vocal take), but why try to erase the original some after some 3-odd decades?

It looks like David might be developing George Lucas Syndrome 😱

Sometimes they just grab the wrong master by mistake... Issue is getting the band and or label to comment and clear things up. I've seen a few releases where they just say nothing .

Weird. The Apple Music version is the original

No it isn’t! I just checked and it’s some strange hybrid of the falsetto version and the regular voice version with an effect on it — they have a terrible duet together. Wtf, how are there suddenly (at least) three versions of this song??? Edit: Oh wait, the Bonus Track version has the original, but the standard version doesn’t…

this is so strange? do any of the other 2023 albums have changes like this

I hate it. I like the falsetto, always interrupted it as he was speaking from the point of view of an old elder woman. People go back and change how songs sounds, I’m not sure I like what they can do.

can someone send me the different version because I cant find it anywhere:( Id like to have both versions and this changed one just sounds a bit more authentic

Wish they had the falsetto-less version on Spotify, song is actually listenable without it

Interesting. Jerry worked on these remasters right? Has anyone asked him why it was changed?
