There is not much to say except in my opinion the acoustic version of any song is always better, This is no exception. It takes all theincredible features of the original version and makes it A little bit more incredible.
My overall thoughts are that I really like the whole Country / Folk / Pop / Rock thing they have going on. It is A really amazing album and I truly see it topping charts when it drops. I strongly reccomend you pick up A copy when it drops.
