Dancy....
I downloaded all three in FLAC....because I always feel that format sounds the best to me...it's "fuller" there's more there there IMO. I listened on my PC with good headphones.
A.....Good Adam vocal, background a little underwhelming/weak. Brian's little guitar solo was good and clear.
B.....Adam's vocals front and center. Heard Adam draw a breath towards the end. The fade out of the volume kinda messed it up. Brian's little solo was very scratchy, almost unpleasant. Overall, the whole recording was not very "rich".
C.... The best of the three versions IMO. Very well balanced between Adam, with his vocals still clear, and the background. This is kinda how it sounds if you were there. Brian's little solo was full, less scratchy and more balanced. If I were making a CD...this is the version I'd use.
If you only want Adam vocals....they're kinda prominent on B....but if you want QAL at it's fullest I'd say C is definitely the Winner.

A bit off topic but I attended the LGBTQ+ music festival LoveLoud over the weekend. While Adam sadly wasn't there in person between them giving away a trip to see QAL in Vegas, Megan Joy from Adam's season of AI being a backup singer for Tyler Glenn, and this one guy I saw in the crowd wearing fabulously Adam like leopard print boots I definitely felt his presence in other ways. There's a full 8 hour livestream of the event on Youtube if anyone has some time to kill lol it was a fantastic experience.

This listening game is fun. I am listening to the M4A to decide which one I want to download. I am using my desk top with Bose external speakers.
I think version B has the brightest, strongest vocals from Adam. Can that little glitch with the volume be fixed?
My second choice is C. Vocals not quite as bright, but the entire sound is probably fuller. Since I like the balance to be skewed towards Adam's vocals, it is not my favorite, but for those who want a harder rock instrumentation, that would be C.

Audio Game - Today's song: Play The Game
Please give the following feedback in the thread: 1) Which version do you like best & 2nd best? And why?
2) Which format did you listen to, FLAC, M4A, or MP3? 3) Did you listen on a PC or on a Smartphone? 4) Did you listen using speakers, headphones or earbuds? If speakers, was it the speaker on the PC or a better speaker?
1) B all the way cos Adam is clearer and sharper (although there is some fade in and out early on). No preference between A and C. 2) M4A although I should say I had to download it, there was no play option on the Mega page (maybe cos I'm on a Mac?) 3) iMac 4) Built-in speakers PS, your recording of the O2 is my constant companion in the car and I get goosebumps and sometimes cry when my favourites come on (WWTLF and TSMGO). I am sooooooooo grateful to you for doing this for us and having a constant memento of my unforgettable trip to London.

Dancy, I listened to the mp3 files on a desktop using Sennheiser ear buds.
File A: Adam vocal prominent, barely audible backing vocals File B: an improvement to A, having a better mix of Adam, backing vocals, music, but Adam vocal thinner File C: my preference, nice mix of Adam, backing vocals, crisp guitar sound

I played the mp4 on a PC without downloading. Had a bit of a problem with some distortion here and there. Definitely liked B and C better than A.
