So I recently got The Whole Story, which is excellent (I finally understand all the Bowie comparisons, particularly with 'Sat In Your Lap' and 'The Dreaming', either which of could have been on Lodger). I did notice something, though; unbeknownst to me, the MP3 I had of 'Wuthering Heights' was the old vocal, with The Whole Story having of course the new.

It's a magnificent song either way, Bush's approach lending the whole thing a kind of deranged stateliness that fits the subject matter to a t; but I can't decide which one I like better. I know this is apparantly fairly hotly contested by Bush fans (and I'm willing to bet peoples' preferences usually come down to whichever version they first got familiar with: cf. 'Temptation'), so I'm wondering if anyone out there would grace us with an opinion on the matter, especially one that is more substantial than "I like the old one because it's better".
