Section not fully finished yet.... but in the meantime you can read about some live song info below (haven't finished writing it yet but it's still a good read! ) It will become a section of 'Tour Facts' when it's all finished. Enjoy. THIS PAGE HASN'T BEEN UPDATED SINCE MID 2005 SO THE STATUS OF SOME SONGS MAY HAVE CHANGED. IT WILL BE UPDATED SHORTLY. RECKLESS
ERA She's Only Happy When She's Dancin' - a song that's always been in the setlist at most shows. Sometimes played on the mainstage, but if there is a b-stage it's always the last song on there. This is the song where the fans get up and sing with the band and invade the stage! Now played on occasion but not often. Run To You - always in the setlist, no BA show would be complete without this baby. Heaven - a Reckless regular in the setlist…many different versions have been done over the years. Full band, half acoustic, acoustic, solo, dance version…the list goes on. Always sounds good though. Somebody - another Reckless regular in the show…we all need Somebody! Summer Of '69 - always in the setlist for every show BA has done since it's release. Has been performed differently over the years from half unplugged, to trio to full band versions…it's always the best song no matter what! Kids Wanna Rock - this usually gets an outing once in a while and the fans always appreciate it when it does. It's Only Love - performed at nearly all the shows since it's release back in the 80's. If you are lucky, Bryan might even do his Tina Turner impression for you while he sings! Long Gone - popular in the setlist up until the latter stages of the 'Waking Up The World Tour'. Performed as a special treat at Cardiff '04 complete with harmonica for the first time! Ain't Gonna Cry - performed live only once ever. At the 20th Anniversary Reckless Show at Cardiff '04. Diana - made regular appearances in the setlists right up until the day Princess Diana died through the '18' tour. Bryan says he will never play the song again. Christmas Time - Performed only a handful of times…including the Vatican for the Pope, December 2000. Reggae Xmas - never performed live Tears Are Not Enough - performed only once at 'Live Aid' on July 13th 1985. WAKING
UP THE NEIGHBOURS ERA Hey Honey…I'm Packin You In! - a regular song in the setlist since the release of 'Waking Up The Neighbours' right up until the Toronto shows of '95. Not performed since though. Can't Stop This Thing We Started - performed at every BA show since it's release. Bryan sometimes has trouble stopping it so you may need to help him…I know I did ;) Thought I'd Died And Gone To Heaven - popular song during the 'Waking' and 'So Far So Good' tours but completely dropped after that. Made a re-appearance in the setlist in shows during Winter '01, Spring '02 and Spring '04. Before the song Bryan usually promotes his 'save the whales' campaign. Not Guilty - never performed live. Vanishing - never performed live. House Arrest - regular show opener since the release of 'Waking Up The Neighbours' which was stopped upon the release of '18 Til I Die' although I believe he performed it a couple of times during the '18' tour. Entered the setlist again in 2001 and still appears in the setlist on occasion right up to 2004. Do I Have To Say The Words? - mainstay song during the 'Waking' and 'So Far So Good' tours but dropped when '18' hit the road to make way for other songs on the setlist. Made a surprise comeback in the form of a reggae encore song during early 2003! There Will Never Be Another Tonight - this was performed at more or less every single 5 piece show since it's release in '91 which went right through the 'Waking', 'So Far So Good', '18' and 'Plugged In' tours. Not performed with Bryan on bass…made a re-appearence at the back end of 2003 on the Canadian tour with the new 5 piece and was played on and off up until '05. All I Want Is You - another regular during the early 90's but dropped after the '18' '96 tour... brought back into the setlist at select shows during 2005. Depend On Me - performed just a handful of times in select cities right at the end of the '18' European tour '97 as an acoustic solo on the b-stage right at the start of the show after 'Straight From The Heart'. I was lucky enough to see him do it in Sheffield that year. Truly amazing live. 2004 saw BA bring the song back into the setlists ending shows with the acoustic version. (Everything I Do) I Do It For You - not surprisingly performed at every BA show since it's release. When the band went to a 3-piece it has took a more acoustic slant to the previous album version. Summer 2002 saw a more familiar version come back though with a half unplugged / full band version. The song has gone through many different arrangements so people don't get fedup up hearing it! If You Wanna Leave Me, Can I Come Too? - performed a handful of times on the 'Waking' tour. Touch The Hand - just like 'There Will Never Be Another Tonight' this was performed at more or less every 5 piece show during the 90's but hasn't come back since. We are waiting Bryan! Don't Drop That Bomb On Me - only recently performed live for the first time after events in the Gulf during spring 2003. This was a show closer in select European cities. It was performed in both electric and acoustic versions depending on his mood. Once again I was lucky enough to see him perform another rare 'Waking' song at the final gig in Rotterdam. SO FAR SO GOOD ERA All For Love - Played at most songs during the 'So Far So Good' and '18' tours, was usually in the encores. Made a comeback at a show in Portugal 2003 and used during the encores on the whole on the 'Room Service Tour' up until this day. 18
TIL I DIE ERA Do To You - an old regular on the '18 Til I Die Tour' that was always performed after 'The Only Thing' with BA on harmonica. Stopped being a regular song after the 'Plugged In' tour. It did however make a few appearances in the setlist in shows during 2001 with the 3 piece minus of course the harmonica. Let's Make A Night To Remember - a beautiful live song first added to the setlist on the later dates of the summer '96 '18 Til I Die Tour'. It was usually performed in the encores but did make appearances very early on in the setlist as well. The song was cut from the setlist totally when the 3 piece started touring but lyrics from the song were used for the 'Blues Jam' from 1999 to 2001. 2003 saw the song become a regular part of the setlist with the re-introduction of the 5-piece band. 18 Til I Die - this has been in every setlist BA has done since it's release in '96 bar a couple of charity shows etc. Always played early on and always played loud! Star - only played during select shows as BA mixed up the setlist on the '18 Til I Die Tour' in the first half of '97. (I Wanna Be) Your Underwear - was played at every '18 Til I Die' show and was most commonly used as a b-stage song, although when the b-stage sometimes wasn't used mid-show…it was played on the mainstage. Giant inflatable underwear was used everytime this song was performed and it was really funny! Hasn't been played since…although everybody wishes it would be! We're Gonna Win - not a regular song during the '18' tour but chances are if you went to a show you would have seen it played. Has been played on the mainstage but more often than not always a b-stage song. BA did a 3 piece version at the 'World Sports Awards' in London in 2000 with other celebrity's joining in…that was the last time. I Think About You - A regular song on the '18' tour of '97 performed after the first 5 or 6 songs usually. Surprisingly introduced back into the set as a solo acoustic version during June '06... by July '06 it was back to being played full band again. Now played on and off. I'll Always Be Right There - never played on the '18' '96 tour but the '97 tour saw this song end almost every show with BA on vocals and Keith on Spanish guitar. A very good show closer. It Ain't A Party…If Ya Can't Come 'Round - included in the majority of setlists for the '18' tour, it was used as either a b-stage number or an encore song. Black Pearl - not played very often at all really. If you were lucky you will have heard it early '97 at select venues mostly although it was played during the '99 fall European tour once or twice in Germany. Bryan also played it early 2004 at the Mississippi shows due to the lyrical reference the song has with Mississippi. Your Still Beautiful To Me - this was the last song to be performed from the original '18 Til I Die' album making it the first ever BA album to have all songs off it performed live. As new dates were announced at the end of the '97 tour this was introduced to setlists. It has also made appearances in 2000 with the trio as BA performed it acoustically in places like Canada and Japan. Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman? - first played in '95 in Canada as new material was starting to be introduced into BA's shows before the new album. It became regular in the '18' tour as a full band effort but when the 3 piece started up was performed acoustically. It is always touch and go nowadays if this will be in the setlist or not... usually performed in Spain. Rock Steady - first performed in '95 with Bonnie Raitt as a duet. Not performed regularly until 4 years later when the trio were starting up. You would be very lucky to hear this live, not played in a few years. Lowlife - The flip side to 'Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman?' was performed at some '95 shows after it's release but was only performed again early on in '97 in select cities in Australia and Japan. Made a surprise comeback in the UK & Europe during July '06. Hey Elvis - this became a strong song in the setlist throughout the later stages of the '18' '97 tour. Lance (BA's guitar technician…went into the crowd during each gig and played the part of Elvis…very funny!). Not performed since until a one off show in Maidstone May '04. I Want It All - never performed live Hey Little Girl - never performed live I Finally Found Someone - never performed live UNPLUGGED
ERA When You Love Someone - performed during the 'Plugged In' tour '98 but only once since then....the surprise Maidstone gig in May '04. A Little Love - performed during the 'Plugged In' tour of Canada in '98 but not since. ON A DAY
LIKE TODAY ERA C'mon C'mon C'mon - performed during most shows in '99. Getaway - performed throughout '99 and 2000 but not since. On A Day Like Today - performed during the first half of '99 but wasn't regular in the setlist. Made a surpise appearance in Tokyo in 2005 as a fan request. Fearless - never performed live I'm A Liar - performed only once at the Hard Rock Hotel show in Las Vegas in February '99. Cloud #9 - performed at every show since early '99. The original album version has never been performed, instead Bryan does his own version of the dance remix by Chicane that was released as the single. This song is performed in the encores. When You're Gone - performed at nearly every show since BA went back on the road early '99. He always gets a female fan to sing the song with him. Inside Out - only ever sang a few lyrics of the song at a rainy gig in Germany back in '99. Despite it being a European single it took him 8 years to finally sing it live in full!...a one-off at the Karlstad gig in Sweden in 2006. If I Had You - never performed live Before The Night Is Over - a regular song on the setlist in '99 and 2000. I Don't Wanna Live Forever - in the show at most '99 gigs but started making rarer appearances in 2000 and it hasn't been played since. Where Angels Fear To Tread - never performed live Lie To Me - never performed live She Believes In Me - never performed live Bin There Done That - never performed live I Love Ya Too Much - never performed live Hey Baby - never performed live What Does It Do To Your Heart - never performed live Let's Talk About Love - never performed live THE BEST OF ME ERA Don't Give Up - Performed only a handful of times live in places like Slane Castle, the Far East and Sheffield Arena. The Way You Make Me Feel - this song written by Bryan for Ronan Keating was used as the show closer during shows in 2001 and 2002. Made a rare appearance at London and Glasgow in '05 plus Canada in early '06. SPIRIT
