I'm carousing Youtube for recordings from Scratch My Back, and the only working link I could find for "My Body is a Cage" is one that's still quite pretty, but isn't like he's been playing it on tour - much more piano heavy, only goes into the heavy orchestra thing once as opposed to twice, etc.
Is the Oxford London Temple Version different, or the same thing? I like it, but the live version was better, and it won't be on the DVD either so I'm wondering if a pro recording the way I heard it live is out there.

this version is included on disc 2 of the "Scratch My Back"-special edition. I noticed many fans prefer this version. It is a different version - much darker, much more "mystic".

Ah, thanks! I love the original much more, actually, though the Oxford London Temple rendition creates a really nice atmosphere. Both are great.

What is this Oxford London Temple? A concert room in London, or in Oxford? I don't find it in Google Maps (I'm in Belgium)!

I seem to remember reading that Oxford Temple was the name of the mixing console used, which is supposed to give the recording a particular sound quality...

More specifically, the console is the Oxford, and the place the Real World Temple, hence the name of the mix.
