"This version of this single is the best buy and includes 5 acoustics that will tell you how good music can truely be. Live is a band that to me proves to me that theres a big problem with record companys and what they promote. This EP really is so stonge and soft. You can feel Edward's feelings on his subjects. Lets review this tracks....... . . . 1. They Stood Up For Love (Radio Mix) - This to me was more of a reason to make this EP. It is a truely great song. It is heavyer than the album version. 95% . . . .2. Run To The Water (Acoustic) - This song delivers as it did on the album but he delivers more feeling in this version. I would rather hear this version than the album copy. 95% . . .3. The Distance (Acoustic) - I thought I would never hear this song cause it's so hard to sing. But He did it and I was so imprest! Truely the most shocking song ever! 100% . .4. The Dolphin's Cry (Acoustic) - A desent song. It sounds very well performed and they perfomed perfect. 95% . . .5. I Alone (Acoustic) - The only song not on they "TheDistance to Here". The words in the song were updated and performed pretty good. Sort of added the feeling left on they recent album as well. 90% . .6. They Stood Up For Love (Acoustic) - Soft and very well done. Sung so well it really gets to you. This truely will make anyone happy. 100% . . .If you like this EP then I would suggest: Live-The Distance to Here, Live-Throwing Copper, Collective soul- collective soul, Jars of Clay-Drummer Boy (Both versions), Live- Mental Jewlry."

"I Have been a fan of LIVE for years and this CD is a must have for any LIVE fan. The acoustic version of They Stood Up for Love is incredible and sounds like a completely different song from the radio edit. Eddie's voice sounds amazing! You won't be disappointed. The Dolphin's Cry is also awesome."

"This is a treat for any fan of LIVE! I was skeptical at first but after listening to this truly talented group of musican play the songs I already loved, acoustically, I am hopeless searching for more acoustic versions of LIVE! I must say their latest album, The Distance from Here to There is their best work in my opinion, and now that I have heard their acoustic renditions, I wish the whole CD had been done this way! You have to click buy now if you're a LIVE fan and you still have to click buy if you just really appreciate truly great music. I promise, you won't be in the least bit disappointed!!"
