    what is your favorite line from a song that Ed has improvised live?

    I'm partial to the line from comatose, the studio version is "...if its illegal to be in love"

    hartford this year he sings "...if its illegal for us to fuck"


    anything that replaces a word with fuck :)

    "I Am a Patriot" Fargo, ND - 06/15/03

    I was walking with my girlfriend,
    I was drunk on wine,
    It was the only way I could ease my mind...
    Oh he fills it up with the love of a girl...

    Either Love Boat Captain - Vancouver 05 or DTE Gorge 06 "2010 watch me fuck this line up again!"

    LBC is just a series of mmmmm's and ahhhhs...for that second verse, or the stanza or bridge or whatever...Did NOT notice it at the show, though...

    Of course, there's the "Green Disease" where he sings, "There's a band and they're called Creed" or something like that...at the end he spells "C-R-E-E-D", but I'm sure someone posted this already...

    The ones I've read on here are highly entertaining! Ed's so real (as is the whole band, actually)...no shame in forgetting the lyrics...

    during daughter, instead of repeating "the shades go down" ed sings "the sun goes down" right as the sun dropped behind the hills across the river (and then does a little solar improv riff). coincidence? or brilliance? or a bit of serendipitous both!

    Not my favorite, but a nice one to add:

    "Sometimes, I realize ... I could only be as good as Mc-Crea-dy ..."
    everybody wants the most they can possibly get
    for the least they could possibly do

    In Berlin 2006 at the end of Black he sings an improv :

    Time heals the wounds no one can see,
    Time heals the wounds no one can see,
    But my memories, my memories wont let me back,
    My memories wont let me be...oooohh
    We belong, we belong together, together, together.....

    In Marseille while singing Whishlist he goes "I wish I was the president, I'd apologise to the French"....
    "Come on people now, smile on your brother and everybody get together, try to love one another right now!!!!"
    "You my friend, I will defend and if we change, well I love you anyway"
    "I know I was born and I know that I'll die, the in between is mine, I AM MINE"

    Normally I would agree that adding the f-bomb to songs adds to the intensity of the moment but for some reason to me it feels out of place in Black, and I don't really care for it on that particular song.

    I agree with this.

    On the Showbox DVD, when he's singing Corduroy around the "i would rather run but I can't walk" part, he forgets the words and sings, "haven't sung this song in a long time."

    I saw a clip of that and it made me buy the DVD.

    "made to the river had a smoke on a cliff" during Given to Fly.

    or, during Wash

    "this planet...is burning...like my mind in ways" when it was 110 outside.

    there were many on both nights that were good:

    given to fly was : "made it to the cliffs had a smoke in a tree.."
