IDK if it's because he sings it first, but this is one of the only songs nowadays that Eddie consistently sounds really good on and idk how or why since it sounds challenging but he always gets it (besides the hoooos or whatever)

Can somebody post a video of what they believe to be the most powerful Release ever? I've heard an absolutely incredible one on the radio from like 1995 and I dunno Im just in the mood for some amazing Release videos.

Not a video of the actual performance (just audio), but this is the definitive version in my opinion.

I'm not a huge fan of some of the 1995 clips I've heard in general, as Eddie seemed a bit off vocally that year to me (a little too wild) and I don't love Jack Irons.

But this Release....this....this is....wonderful. Jack irons is great on this one he keeps it so slow and steady and brings out all the plodding tension like the song just wants to absolutely explode and he won't let it. The series of "Release Meeeees" starting at 3:57's gives me chills. Eddie sounds like a distorted guitar himself.

It’s come up several times but release from Kansas 03 with the lightning bolt streaming across the sky as ed sang ‘oh dear dad can you see me now’ has gotta be up there.
Probably a you had to be there moment but Fuck me in 40 pj shows full of magic that one is top of the pile by far and untouchable for me. It was just so beautiful and magical.



He always brings it for release doesn’t he? Never fucks that up. I’d happily have Release be the opener every night to be totally honest. There’s something about the heart and energy and magic that song conjures. Let’s never do an opening song tourney. The others would just lose and look bad.

I don't think you had to be there, Dime -- I get chills from that even on the recording. I mean, knowing the context helps, but it's a lovely moment, and also my favorite version of the song.

Yes, especially after the delay to start the show. Release is such a showcase for the power and range of Ed's voice. KC '03 is the pinnacle.
