The most unlikely single to be played live

There's a lot of talk about only playing the singles on this tour, but it got me thinking which are the least likely singles to ever be played again? Obviously with as many singles as they've released they won't always see the light in every gig, but there are some it struck me we might never hear again.

My picks would be:
- Richard Nixon
- There by the grace of god
- So why so sad (no bad thing there...)
- Love's Sweet Exile?
- Revol? Maybe?
- Indian Summer

I don't think it's necessarily linked to how well they did - I don't know how high Autumnsong went in the charts, but Nixon made it to #2, and TBTGOG got to 6, which isn't awful.

Anyone agree? I just think it's odd that there's such a divide between those singles which are mandatory and those which we probably won't hear again.

But then again, with 10 albums worth and 30 plus singles they're never going to play everything.
