The Rare Songs: 19. More Than You Deserve - 1973 version

Kicka**

If this is how the song was performed in the stageplay I can see why he got a standing ovation. The music is a little too non-meat style, kind of like an Eagles or CCR style, but Meat hits the notes in the song perfectly.
Much better than on the 1981 Dead Ringer album

9/10

This version is great! Really good. Indeed it sounds like an Eagles song, bit country like, but that doesn't matter. Do think it is as good as the song on the Dead Ringer album

9/10

His voice is much better than on the Dead Ringer album. Great version of this song.

My score: 8/9

Oh no, I don't think this version is as good as the 1981-Dead Ringer-version. This sounds more like a song on wich all the children and granny's can clap their hands and being happy. Or a song of a man with a guitar in a pub or so. The song shouldn't be "happy"or "funny" I would give the DR-version a 9 but this only a 6,5!

Hahahaha very funny. I think DR version is better too. The arrangements are much better and Meat is singing from the heart. The live versions from the early seventies are (ofcourse) great, at least the vocals. The lyrics are funny and sad at the same time.
Dr-Version is 9/10.

I have to agree with Twan82!
It isn't as good as DR-version. I gave for that 6, I'll give for it 5!
It's not so good just strange.

My score: 5

Average: 7.75 (46.5/6)
