Default Songs the "ought to" play live (more than they do)

Had a hard time creating a explaning topic there

Here's a couple of songs I find it a little bit odd that they don't play live (more than they do). This does not mean I like/love them, or want to hear them live. It simply means it songs that they logical should play live.

Say It Isn't So - Single. Kinda "big" hit. A song they did better live than on record. I think many people like this song more than they admit to themself, atlest I do (kinda like Mystery Train ). Never played live anymore! This was the song that made me create this topic.

Misunderstood - Even if not many of you love it, I find it strange that this song is sacrificed to Cpt.Crap etc...

Undivided - A fanfavourite, seldom done live...

I Believe - It works well live. Brilliant song. Why skip this one?

Last Man Standing - Played at almost every gig last tour. Good song, works well live. Again, why don't they play this anymore? They even like the song!

I'm not saying they should play it every show, but now and then wouldn't hurt ? Ok you get the idea.

Lay Your Hands On Me - Great song and gets the crowd alive.

One Wild Night - Brilliant song for same reason as LYHOM

Tokyo Road - Every album should be represented and this is the best on 7800 IMO!

Never Say Goodbye - The best Jovi ballad IMO.

Blood On Blood - Played fairly regularly but not nearly enough.

Bounce - I love it. It's a decent rock song too.

Undivided - Good song with feeling in it.

All About Lovin' You - Jovi's second best ballad(IMO)

I Am - One of HAND's better tracks

I Love This Town - Should be played, just not in a two song encore with Wanted Dead Or Alive



I'll think of more!

Last Man Standing - Good rocker from the popular HAND album

Undivided - Could trade punches with the Hey God slot?

Bounce - Another good rocker

Mystery Train - A better song than some give credit for

One Wild Night - This is a great song, live it works really well. Mix this up with the Raise Your Hands slot?

Something To Believe In - Great song that could be placed in the encore

This Ain't A Love Song - Could be traded with Bed Of Roses?

Dry County - Masterpiece, no more to be said

In & Out Of Love - Why not? It has been sound checked and would go over really well for the die hards

I think most of the other songs played give a good account of the band but these could/should be mixed in. Too many songs to choose from I guess.

Lay Your hands on me - crowd pleaser

One wild night - also crowd pleaser

Wild in the Streets - should be played more often. Great song.

This ain't a love song - Switch this with Bed of Roses, but maintain Always

Dry County - AMAZING SONG!

Hardest Part is the Night - I think this song OUGHT to be played live, at least one time. The best one from 7800 album.

Something to believe in - In the mainset or in the encore this song fits perfectly and I think it suits Jon's capabilities this time around.

Shot through the heart - Bring back this song!

Without Love - Isn't there a little spot for this song?

There's something about this sentence that just strikes me funny. Like you're trying to sell the song door-to-door or something.

I never got why this wasn't played. It's way stronger than sleep.

Livin in Sin also, when IBTFY gets so much play, surely this deserves to be heard more.

It is a good album, full of rock/pop classics and yours for £7.99 from most good retailers
