Would be cool to see that, hopefully someone records it and posts it on YouTube.

    I'm sure Ed will drink plenty of wine in his honor.

    I hope they play Long Road. Such a fitting song!

    I was playing it on guitar this morning and I was tearing up!

    Rip in Madiba!!

    I think you miss the point of what Mandela was all about. And if they play that in his honor, they do, too.


    I'm sure they will mention it (how could you not?). They may even play a song dedicated to him. But, I would not expect some big, elaborate tribute.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    I know what he was about...I just couldn't think of another race themed song to sing, and I'm sure people would love to hear W.M.A. in it's entirety. Long Road (prison term) as someone else mentioned seems more fitting though.

    I think light years is more fitting. His family was in a bitter feud over his inevitable death.

    Light Years/Man of the Hour would be fitting.

    Interesting to see the posts here. I think Long Road and/or Man of the Hour would be great.

    A nation in mourning... :(

    RIP Madiba....

    Its a ska song, but some version of "Free Nelson Mandela" would be great...maybe slow it down, tag it to Daoughter

    I just need Long Road. If it's for Mandela even better.
