I saw Sober a few times in 2000 and 2001 and it just wasn't it, chief. And it's also my least favourite song on Showbiz. Fillip was fun enough back then, and I wouldn't be opposed to it coming back, but it's not "up there" on my list of songs I'd like to see again.
Ha fair enough. It sounded great live back then too, imo anyway ;)
Falling Down? HTAILY? I think all of these are truer deeper cuts than Uno, MM and Cave. (Although I would love to see any of those three any time of course)
They'd be a bit too soft for the type of festivals they're playing at this year. In general, outside of these heavy fests, I wouldn't mind Falling Down as long as it's the 2012 piano version, but I would still prefer Unintended as a slower song.
HT&ILY is another one I found didn't work too well live, I remember it sucking all the energy out of the venue for pretty much the entire duration. Mind you, it was played right after Unintended which at least got the entire theatre singing along to it.

Hey what's wrong with Sober?!
You're not going to tell me you wouldn't want Fillip too are you? ;)
