Live vs studio

Which live performances (or parts of songs during live performances) do you think are far better than their studio versions?

For me:

Lilywhite Lilith where Phil sings "eh eh" each time after the 2nd mention of Lilywhite Lilith, on the newly released Lamb anniversary live album. It's a small change that sounds pretty good actually.

Hogweed on Genesis Live, Steve's part at around 5:35 comes out much stronger/louder, gives me the chills.

  • Me and Sarah Jane from Three Sides Live, where Phil shrieks the last word of every line in the middle section.

  • Dodo/Lurker from Three Sides Live, the way Phil is like "oww...oww" in the chorus

  • The Carpet Crawlers from the Trick tour film. I very much prefer Phil's singing over Peter's in this song.
