I really don't think they should do any of Chris`s songs,out of respect for her, z7 no offense to Stevie, but she doesn't do a good job on those songs Don`t Stop is alright, though.

I picked the something else option.

But I don't think it will be YMLF. It could possibly be Hold Me since Lindsey had such a prominent part on that song anyway.

Of course, they'll probably play Don't Stop too. Who am I kidding.

No one can sing YMLF. That "beliee EE eve" is untouchable by either of them. It would suck if either of them tried to sing it.

I would like to hear them do Hold Me, although they won't. They decided years ago that it doesn't work on stage.

I voted for "Don't Stop," but I'd love for them to try "Isn't It Midnight." It's kind of Lindsey's song, too, since he sings and plays killer guitar on it. The vocal arrangement could be done in the same ways as "Don't Stop." First verse to Lindsey, second to Stevie, and all of them could sing on the chorus. Of course, this will never happen.

They rehearsed YMLF for the 2003 tour but it didn't see the light of day. I think Lindsey would've sung it himself as it's his favourite Chris song, but I'd love to have heard how it sounded!

wasn't live version of Hold Me with Christine pretty horrible when compared to studio one?

guess it might be interesting to hear whether it would be a bit less horrible without her

It didn't hold up well, because there was too much going on, on the recording, to duplicate that with a 4 piece band(tambourine doesn't count as an instrument!). I have one live recording of it, and I think it was okay! The only thing really missing was the guitar part going "dink, dink a dink, dink a dink".

The reason they do Chris songs is out of respect for her. But I agree they should stop it. Stick to songs you can do justice meaning those written by Stevie and Lindsey plus oh well. Say you love me was such a waste of a song in the set. And while I enjoy her take on world turning I feel that song should be retired and mick can solo in another song.
