I wonder when that will be

I only really found out about this topic when EyesWithPrideB3 (cheers ) told me. People were saying that it should be kept out of the setlists for the next leg. Tbh, I don't really think so. Reason being, it was a single and was a strong song. Possibly one of the songs that made NLOTH better.

As EyesWithPride was saying, the song could be speed up a bit. That could be done but I could not imagine it being faster. I don't think anyone else could either.

In my opinion- and maybe it's just my ears- the song was noticeably slower on tour than on the album. Not a TON, but it was noticeable.

I think if they kept the drive that the studio one had, I would reconsider it. And maybe that's the problem- the lack of energy is taking away from the song's drive, and I'm hearing it slower because it's just not delivering.

Also a good one, but it misses some sort of energy, like all the 360-performances.

Disagree. And the opera part bring a another dimension to it.

Agrre about the fact thet they could play it faster live, but this song is even better live in my opinion because of Edge. His guitar really sounds fantastic there ...and that intro and the chorus are so great...
