I would say Pittsburgh 2006 - it definitely sounds like he is crying!

There is another tag that I have not heard yet but have read the lyrics to it:

what could have been
what could have been
will never be
it could have been here
I could have been there
well I want to be here
fuck you and them
I'm with my friends (fans?)
I've got an end

what could have been
what could have been
no longer care
I no longer care
it's all right, it's all right
it's all right, it's all right

I would love to find out what 2007 show this was! These lyrics seem to be the most emotional ending to Black (in my opinion)

    I agree with you on that one. Each ending is different and it's cool to hear Black from various concerts and experience the variations. Personally, I like the Atlanta 1994 version. Such passion in that tag.

    I think it's Phoenix 98:

    "He went this way...

    And she went that way.

    And they both lived happily ever after...

    What's happy anyways?"

    This one really does it for me....it's just raw, uncut linguistic power
    Dalai Lama—To say that humility is an essential ingredient in our pursuit of spiritual transformation may seem to be at odds with what I have said about the need for confidence. But there is clearly a distinction to be made between valid confidence or self-esteem, and conceit - which we can describe as an inflated sense of importance, grounded in a false image of self.

    Just listened to it. Very dark but nice.

    For me it will always and forever be the MTV Unplugged. The way he changed Black a few times during the song and the 'We Belong Together' tag really stabbed me in the heart. Helps that I had a VCR recording of that show which I managed to ruin by watching so many times and then on the Web...and then finally with the box set when they gave us the DVD. That performance of Black is what I think of when I want to show someone who asks how PJ become so relevant in my life back in the early days. I was going through my first real break up and the heartache was unlike anything I had know to that point.
    My wife cries when we watch that (or when she sees Black in person) as they played it at her friend's funeral when he died in a car crash 1 week before high school graduation in 93.

    Such an amazing song and I love how EV puts so much into it and by doing so, gives the faithful so much in listening to it.

    My fave Black forever will always be the one from Berlin on the Roskilde anniversary. I don't know if you could call what happened there a tag, but the atmosphere was absolutely magical and I felt honoured to be a part of it.

    If it is pre-2000 there is a chance I have not heard that 14 minute tag....if it is post 2000, I smoked too much weed as a kid and blame that on why I do not recall from my boots. :)

    You mention a few really great tags...

    To this list I would also add "I didn't need you to make my dreams come true" from Santiago'05
    This ending gives some hope - there is life after love:)
