What's a song where the remix, demo, or live version is better than the album version?

Strangled By The Stereo Wire was one of the first songs I heard by Archers of Loaf, and for years I only ever heard the version that was on their live album Seconds Before The Accident. That version is super powerful and almost reminds me of more hardcore-adjacent bands like Hot Water Music. When I finally heard the album version I was just confused. It seemed like a totally different band. It's production makes it lose some of the rawness and the vocals have more of a sing-song quality to them that feels strange when I was so used to the gruff barking tone that the live version has.

I pretty much ended up pretending that one live album was the only Archers of Loaf record and I've been happily ignoring their studio albums ever since.
