I'd settle for them just playing it! Removables too.

Also imagine opening with Removables as a little 'unplugged' thing then going into a more high-energy set? It'd be sort of dramatic.

Either way I don't think they have that many great opening songs oddly. But then again I've only seen them once so I'm just guessing!

I love Interiors. And Removables. And Further Away. I'd love to see them play any of these.

Just thinking about this I wonder just how much bass Wire has actually played on record...

The last 30 seconds of "Removables" constitutes one of my all time favourite Manics song moments.

I think it would work really well live. Truth be told, I was unaware it was considered the weak link of the album until I came here, and still can't quite get my head round that fact.

Same here. For an album that has it's fair share of generic rock tunes like Australia, Further Away and Enola/Alone, I'm surprised one of the more original tunes doesn't get more plaudits. It's one of the few songs on EMG I can still stand to listen to today.

It would be fantastic live, but it's not really a set opener kind of song.
