If you had ONE wish?

On this upcoming tour, you have ONE wish for David to sing a song you have always wanted to hear played Live, my wish would be to hear " Forbidden Colours " Live....

What's your ONE wish ?? :?:

Nice choice.
Taking for granted that the Manafon/Sleepwalkers/Dyed In The Wool material will be the main course of this tour, I'd go for something old: "The Ink In The Well" would be my choice.

Past......Before the bullfight

Present..I should not dare
Ride, ride the very thought into the ground
In the church of the lost and found
The angels cry
Ride, ride until the darkness closes in
Until the ravaged soul begins
To reflect the open skies, ride

Silver Moon, I don't think he did it live, ever...
Forbidden Colours was brilliant live in 2001.

my ONE wish would be that he at least play one song from any of his three first solo albums. I would love to hear a BT or SOTB track arranged in the new way...

Very funny. Couldn't agree more! In fact, I hope he leaves the old stuff where it belongs...in the past; unless, that is, he puts it through the sonic wringer of Fennesz / Nakamura / Heinreksen / Parker / Bang / Honore / Brandlmayr.

I would love to hear 'A certain slant of light'

I don't mind him playing some of the old stuff, Blemished. I just HATE that song and Sylvian seems pretty keen on it for some reason. I think if there is a string quartet on stage with him then there is a possibility that some of the older stuff will make an appearance and lend itself quite nicely to a string arrangement. Wouldn't it be nice if he played For The Love of Life??

For the Love of Life... that would be awesome.
still, I will miss Steve if he's not up there on stage with David, tapping on whatever.

That track would be brilliant, especially with strings.

Thinking about it, I don't really care what he plays as long as his heart is in it. If so, I'm sure it'll be a wonderful tour.

Very true!

I'm hopeless at choosing just one or even ten songs as far as Sylvian is concerned... all the choices above would be my ones also, but I'd love to watch him singing:
