This is from november 1992 when ZooTv came to Mexico. It's from a mexican radio.
 
Have this. It's an interesting vibe -- completely different from the "All I Want Is You" cover it became. Much closer to Al Green (who the song was originally written for). I still like the studio version.
 
It's from a Spanish radio show to promote zoo tv (accent is different than mexican and I should know!). I remember it at the time...
 
The guitar part is subpar and falsetto singing the whole melody does not suit the song imho.

Although I think the final version of TFT is a pretty average song as well, it's better than this early take at least.
