well i guess i don't have to count a lot on this one, but anyways i'll give it a shot...
if you support this request, just reply... if you don't support it, well just don't reply...
I think it would be great if they play BOB DYLANS FOREVER YOUNG at Rock Werchter...
i've heard a version of eddie singing it and it was mindblowing...
the reason for this request is right below...

May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

by the way, Allen Ginsberg said that this song should be sung every morning by every child in every school in every country... which i think really is a beautiful idea...
don't let the sun go down on your grievances...

    Love this song. My mom passed away last month, and I must have (and continue to) played this song 1000 times. I am very much for this song being played again

    Did you also know that Meat Loaf covered this song? :D

    I agree I think PJ should play it at Werchter too.
