I'm sure I'm reading too much into it, but the implication here is that you view performances as just a place to showcase his fingerpicking. "Under The Skin" is a melodic, well written song, and "Not Too Late" just isn't. It's good for other reasons, but it has very little musical to offer, save for a few interesting arpeggios. If you're into the musical side of things, and not preoccupied by lyrical meanings and fancy guitar playing, you enjoy melodic, "boring" songs like "Under the Skin" live. Which is why this comment...
