I just noticed that this version of the song is about 2 minutes shorter than the one on the album. In fact, at the 1:58 mark it skips over one of the best stanzas of the entire song. It's too bad since the buildup of the album song really attributes to its beauty which you don't you get with this version.

I can see why he gets compared to Jeff Mangum so much, but he sounds more like the equally talented Leonard Cohen to me.

I think Paul Baribeau sounds more like Jeff vocally, though.... but Paul doesn't use all the crazy instruments.
