I am surprised at the surprise of many that she did this song. Its a surprise in the sense of any new song in her set is a surprise. But I Sing For The Things is one of the tiny few songs on RAL that she wrote. Of course going over her albums this would be one to showcase since its never been done before and is from the RAL era. Her other songs she regularly performed live from RAL are also songs she wrote (No Spoken Word, HAEWAFY). Its also on 2 studio albums (RAL and Wild Heart reissue).
I applaud her for adding a deep track but when you think about it, it would not be a surprise. Why would she perform a deep track from an album she does not like and did not write? She would have to bring in drum machines for many other RAL tracks.
