I mean, it’s not hard to see the common denominator. And there’s nothing wrong with it, if for some reason he didn’t want to perform it live, so what?
Personally, I was glad Christine dropped Songbird live. I don’t even think she performed it during the Buck/Vie tour. I love the song, but I was thrilled to get a different song instead. I didn’t get the feeling All Over Again was some sort of F U to Lindsey.
Stand Back was a surprise when Lindsey rejoined, but he brought one of his solo songs to the setlist, too. I thought it was neat they brought those songs into the set, and it would have been even better if Christine had sung Got a Hold on Me, too.

I wonder if Christine asked Lindsey “Can we play Isn’t it Midnight?”. He is a co-writer and it wasn’t a hit single. Maybe he wasn’t able to play the guitar parts?
They didn’t play Songbird, Don’t Stop or World Turning on LBCM Tour, but they did play Game Of Pretend as the closing song, Wish You Were Here, Hold Me, some Christine hits, and 3 other new Chris songs.
Yes, they did SB and Go Insane for two tours and then for two tours they did SB only.
All Over Again was not an insult to Lindsey but just them saying we don’t regret firing Lindsey and we’d do it again tomorrow if we had to. They weren’t singing Planets Of The Universe or Fall From Grace!
