I don't like this version at all. Candlebox's version is 1,000 times better (I probably shouldn't say version as it's their song). With Lakini's Juice, I thought the music was good but Kevin vocals were lacking. With Far Behind, I think Kevin Martin's voice is good but the music is lacking.

I don't particularly like the new version of Far Behind either, but I am glad that they put their own spin on it rather than playing it straight up. That, I can appreciate even if I prefer the original. To say they ruined it is a bit crazy, after all it is Kevin's song and if he likes it then they didn't "ruin" it as far as I am concerned.

As far as Lakini's Juice, it just illustrates how much higher Kevin's voice is than Ed's. The song is low for him, so he is never going to sound as good singing it as he does the TGF and Candlebox tracks. He did sound a lot better on it at Fat Daddy's than at Summerfest, for what that's worth.

I'm intrigued to hear them do White, Discussion and Best Friend (by Candlebox) as those are much more interesting song choices to me.
