The top five post-2000 performances of Daughter that come to mind all (must) have the "It's Okay" tag (in one language or another). In ascending order they are:

5. May 20, 2006 (Cleveland) - it's on my 2006 mix
4. Sept 11, 2011 (Toronto) - great version; probably some bias here
3. Sept 14, 2006 (Bologna) - I love the "tuttu ok" part
2. Sept 17, 2011 (Winnipeg) - has both WMA and It's Okay tags
1. Aug 3, 2000 (Virginia Beach) - in my mind, no rationale is necessary

Daughter is a great song but after nearly two decades of listening to the main body of the song, it's now the tags that make it for me. A similar case can (and will) be made for Better Man.

I should also add that there may be better versions out there - I just haven't heard them yet. Please let me know!

Originally posted by RUMMY:Keping track of your 2005 Canadian reviews, Ed. So far:
Toronto, St. John's (N1), Vancouver, and Halifax?

I will begin 2005 tomorrow. Planning to start with Toronto. On paper, it looks like a show that a somewhat casual fan would fall in love with (like me a little over a year ago): Opens with Release plus the "Big Four" from Ten spread out through the set; all the essentials (and more) from Vs (seven songs in all); the two "gods" of Vitalogy (Better Man and Corduroy); the main three from Yield (Given to Fly, Wishlist, and Evolution); a cover of Neil Young's Havest Moon; and close with YLB - plus more!

Now...let's find out how it sounds.
