It's called building dramatic tension. The intro is the perfect length.

@@echoriath2759 have your heard the original on their debut album, much better, a wee intro but then just kicks in.

@@katoness Expecting studio versions in live performances is a recipe for disappointment. Live performances are often a much better reflection of what the artist REALLY wants the song to sound like. Look at Jim Morrison's poetry. The record studios did not have time for that stuff, but in concert he could do what he wanted. And he did.

@@echoriath2759 Not in all cases.. Lots of artists when they play live, it doesn't sound much different from their studio recordings.

@@katoness Lots of artists' songs sound EXACTLY the same when they perform "live" because they are lip syncing. They do this in no small part because people moan and groan if the performance does not sound exactly like the album. If people just want to hear the album in a live performance, they should stay home, put on the album and turn it up really loud. Many people afford artists so little latitude in live performance, at one level one has to wonder why the artists even bother to do live shows. A really good live performance can be much better than the studio version if the audience will just relax and enjoy what they've paid for.
