No doubt-the M.M.I.M. version. I love how soothing Jimmy's voice sounds on that one, and Mr. Utley's accordian solo gives me shivers. A BEAUTIFUL version of a BEAUTIFUL song.

YHTBT, takes me back to my first show in 79ish???

Jimmy did a full band rocking set, took a break and then came out with just him and his guitar for the slow stuff. During HWTP, I handed my girl friend a single Yellow rose I had purchased on the way back from the head (and beer stand)

Figured it was the least I could do since I had decked her during the first song when a "high five" to my buddy missed wide right and I hit her square in the right eye (swollen shut for days)

The trip hop dance remix he did with Sean Puff Diddley Combs that somehow didn't end up making the cut for Meet Me In Margaritaville. :)

Whichever one you're listening to at the time.
