all you have to do is to watch this video to know why is such a great idea, of course I am in an enhanced state of mind right now, feeling an enhanced state of being, but I am sure I would enjoy it immensely anyway

    I guess I thought people liked the song more than I guess they actually do based upon the zero responses I got, I understand why they never play it anymore, too bad for me, I love the song

    thanks, I think it gives Eddie a more intimate time with the fans, even if only for 5 minutes

    I found a new appreciation for the song after my son was born. Beautiful lyrics.

    especially in arena environment I love the 3 acoustic guitars, Jeff playing the upright bass and Matt filling in perfectly, it's a very intimate song

    thank you, totally agree with band as a total package, plus it gives Eddie time to chill out with the crowd, great song for arenas, not sure how well the song would play in a big soccer stadium or an outdoor festival, but they have not played this song as best I can tell for 5 years, 2006 is the last live version anyone has uploaded to you tube, that's just crazy to have completely shelved such a great song for 5 years, not sure if they played it one of the first 3 nights when they tore down the Spectrum in 2009 or not
