Am I one of the few who doesn't like the alternate version then lol? I prefer the album version because the whole song sounds more complete, I mean the chord changes sound "nicer" to me and add to the song, whereas the alternate version just sounds a bit empty in that respect...

Personal preference obviously




Yep, you're the only one...I suggest we ban you!

the alternate version sounds like less was done to it and that's why i like it a bit better. the album version sounds like they did A LOT to it, and i'm sure they did. simply put the alternate version is just more raw. I also like Larry's drum part better in the alternate version


I agree as well!!

I just heard both versions back to back.
I have to say if I were to choose I would choose Alternate version as well, I do like the drumming and the dfferent lyrics.
But really I enjoy all versions of this track!!!

I love all versions too, and I mostly listen to the album version, but when I hear the alternate is always a nice alternative, the album version fits in well with the album. the alternate obviously fits in with the album that would have included Native Son, the early ABOY version, both of which are good songs, however I can't understand why they would have thought the early version of Sometimes was decent, that is the one track from the sessions I just can't listen to. It's good as a work in progress, but when you read that they actually thought it was done?? Hard for me to believe

True, True!!
I think the album version does fit well with the album as a whole.
I like the album version of Sometimes ... It just is seems more refind, but I do like the lyrics in the alternate version.
I think Sometimes had been going through quite a transformation since 2001. It's an amazing song as well!!
