Incredible song, but shouldn't be played as an opener.
Abruptly kicking into it as a second song would be ace though.

Would love to see it but as far as rarely touched EMG stuff I reckon Further Away would be a better opener. Not sure how likely we are to see either, mind. Really hope for the next tour they pull out a couple of songs they haven't touched for a decade or so.

I maintain that the best opening to a set would be Tennessee.

Wow, talk about general consensus among wankers.

There are many Manics songs I had no idea were so liked/disliked by fans until coming here.

Do you know what. I've actually forgotten how the song goes. I've skipped it for so long now. I'm going to play it when I get home and check if I still hate it. :-)

It's a decent song but not the sort of stand-out that'd work as a show opener. I'd like to hear it played though.
