Lay Your Hands On Me?
 
This has proibably been discussed here before, but I noticed that this song wasn't played during the whole Lost Highway Tour, which is wierd, having it been a staple song to there setlist until now.
I also have seen absolutely no one talk about the song since I've been on. It's my second favorite "upbeat song" song from the 80's...... Does no one like it here?

Aloha !

It wasn't played much on the Bounce tour and wasn't played on the HAND tour at all, so it hasn't been a staple on the setlists much lately. It did return on the Lost Highway tour and was played 14 times. I like it, but it's played a bit too slow nowadays. That said, when they played it in Frankfurt Jon nailed it for the first time in probably 5 years. Previous versions on the Lost Highway Tour hadn't been very good as Jon struggled with the vocals.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I agree, it should be played a lot more, especially more than Sleep. Hopefully on the next tour it will be back in the setlists.

its a good song but personally i only liked the live versions from the crossroads tour, its not been that great on any other tour imo.

Oh i just didnt notice in the setlists.... By the way how do you guys know that songs like IBTFY took like a 5 year break before being played again. I thought the setlists only started getting posted during the HAND tour?

Came across OK live in 93 and 95. Other than, it's always sounded like crap.

What about on the These Days tour, as the opener of the show?

Oh, I thought the marching band was great. It was something different to what they had done before and it built up an atmosphere. Plus, the bit where the drums kick in with a roll is cool as hell. :p
