The album version is in the key of D, and the live version in the key of C, which is a whole tone lower. In fact, quite a lot of the songs have had their keys changed over the years:
Bat - Album F, live E
2 Out of 3 - Album A, live G
Took the Words - Album A, live G
Paradise - Album D, live C
All Revved Up - Album A, live G
Most of the others are in the original key.
This isn't knocking Meat's voice at all. He can hardly be expected to sing all these extremely difficult songs for thirty years without changing something.
