    i just listened to the version from WOTR. i still thinks its brillant, i feel like they can totally take this song somewhere. the studio may be lacking, but roi and boyd really give this song an eerie feel live. i love it.

    i def feel like if this wasnt on SU, people would like it more.

    When I originally heard the sax part on the studio preview videos on dmb.com I thought this song had the potential to be something really special. But like most of Stand Up they mailed it in, and it turned into a just "okay" song. Oh, what could have been...

    The studio version is brutal - it is the definition of sterile and repetitive. Looped guitar riff, looped drum beat, looped sax line, and repeated lyrics make for a bad studio effort. Live it is marginally better, but still not something I want to hear (I've heard it live twice last year).

    Dave wasn't sitting in the chair this time, was he?

    I love it. The WOTR version gets me everytime. At the end, I think Dave strikes a chord and some girl yells something. Something about the end that I love.

    Absolute Favorite............................Best Song From SU.

    I think, now that we've seen it on the Gorge set.........this could turn into something really special...........we've seen it before.

    I say YAY.

    It's ok as a studio song, meaning I don't always skip it, but it would probably be my last choice of song to hear live off of Stand Up. It's just not all that exciting.

    I voted 'somewhere in between', but it is definitely more in the direction of hate than love for me.

    It is alright live, and I really do mean just alright, but it is so boring on the album. I liked it at first, but it bores the hell out of me now.
    I think it is a shame that a drummer as dynamic and fantastic as Carter plays (or loops) what is on Stolen Away. The song is too repetative for me.

    my 2 cents

    I love it, but I am probably much older than most of you. I think it is one of those songs you may appreciate as you get more time behind you. Friends my age who don't even know DMB's music, stop dead in their tracks when I play it. You see their memories going of someone they remember who would evoke similar feelings.

    If it's played more than once every 3 shows, or if it's played with 4 other Stand Up songs on the same set, then nay.

    Otherwise, it's cool.
