Re: Battle
Yes, for me is one of their best.... especially live!!I really wish they would play it again but don't think it happens this tour...

Re: Battle
They need to play it live again, such a good song!
This is my favourite live version from the Depot, London, 10 March 1999: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKlcPMatPLA" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Suuuuch a good song, one of the best on 13. Would love to hear it live but fear it'll be wasted on an outdoor festival like Hyde park
She's a well wisher and she wishes you well
Re: Battle
They should have played it at the 100 Club show in 2012, that would have been amazing.Leahscarlet2 wrote:Suuuuch a good song, one of the best on 13. Would love to hear it live but fear it'll be wasted on an outdoor festival like Hyde park

Re: Battle
I used to hate this song because of how repetitive the chorus was. Oh, what I naive youth I used to be.
It's a bloody masterpiece.

Re: Battle
Yep, great song, but can't think of a worse choice for Hyde Park or similar gigs.

Re: Battle
They did reduce the length of a quite a lot though, and almost completely rejigged the song to make it more.... melodic is probably the word.Macducci wrote:they played Caramel in 2012, soHe's So High wrote:Yep, great song, but can't think of a worse choice for Hyde Park or similar gigs.
Something similar could probably be done with Battle, but it would lose a lot of its charm I fear.
Re: Battle
Yeah and Caramel was for me almost the best moment in Hyde Park setlist. They played shit out of that song!
Also huge fan of Battle, hopefully they also dig it up some day.
