myl_oxyl_oto Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 What's your favorite song (released or unreleased) that was soundchecked/performed live? For me it'd be either A Whisper (WAIT! Don't hate on me just yet), DLIBYH, or Daylight. A Whisper has only been performed twice since being released, once in 2002 in Seattle and the other in 2014 at the Royal Albert Hall (I think). I personally despise the song, seems a bit too repetitive and would've done better as a b-side, but it sounds pretty good live, especially Jonny's guitar. Here's two videos of it, the first being the 2014 performance and the other being a soundcheck from 2002. [video=youtube;ofzKiWaKRQ8] [video=youtube;SaBs3PbckPU] . DLIBYH's guitar and bass is amazing live, nuff said. Need I say more about Daylight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paa1988 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 God put a smile, live on jools Holland, check it out The Glastonbury 2011 is one of the best. Especially yellow and violet hill, shiver Trouble pinkpop 2011 Midnight is pretty cool live I thought.

Christa42 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Well after years of waiting I got to hear my favorite song "Warning Sign" with Miss Angie in New Jersey, so I am complete. However, I would love to hear "One I love" and of course "Ghost Story" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
