Again. I believe closing Live 2013 with Say Goodbye was a bold choice. They could've closed it with Silver Springs but they didnt. I went to 5 shows in 2013 and no one around me knew Say Goodbye.

I agree that Say Goodbye was a bold choice of a closer in 2013, definitely. But the song had been performed live before, and by the same lineup that recorded it, and it was from an album that was fairly recent. All Over Again was performed live by a different lineup than the one that recorded it, and was from an album that was almost 20 years old at that point, not to mention the album was their poorest selling album. Those factors are why I think All Over Again was a more brazen choice for a closer. Really, for FM to not end with Songbird was a surprise, because they’re such a creature of habit. I was thrilled they shook up their setlist so much for the last tour, and it sounds like you were, also.
