Don't get me wrong, I love the song, one of the best songs of the album, but if you haven't heard the song before the show as a casual it's not a song that will bite its way into your mind. In that sense it would make much more sense to play Born Again Tomorrow. That's the opposite, that song is built around a strong hook in the chorus and a catchy guitar melody.

Say It Isn't So suffered a similar fate back in the Crush days, Fantastic song that the crowd just didn't give a reaction to like other songs. Luckily Jon kept it around for a year anyway
