you can download the version from the other night on iTunes
amazing version of corduroy , i prefer it much more than the original arrangement since its been played at most concerts (and radio around here for a time) sine the song came out

this is a great adaptation, perfectly rearranged for the occasion but there's no way any version could eclipse the original - holy cow, this is a pissed-off song!!

the 96 bridge school was the best beacuse of this and porch. They actually took time and rearranged some songs for the acoustic occasion. Seem sas though they actually spent some time rehearsing for it instead of just showing up and playing the same goddamn setlist as they do now.

i like when they take the time to make a song different...
like this, porch, and jeremy. would be interesting to hear them do an entire acoustic concert of reworkings.

This is the first time I've heard this, and frankly, I don't see why you all love it so much. To me, it's interesting, but certainly not a definitive performance by any means, reworked or not. Eddie's vocals are particularly annoying, actually.
But, to each their own. I'm not a big fan of Corduroy to begin with.
2 things: Eddie's face looks bloated and round. I don't think I've ever see it like that. Also, who's playing the keyboard?

i love this one. it works nice on the acoustic. sounds real good. i used to play it at open mics in college.
