Wonder what the love affair with Sign of the Times is? I mean, I like the song, but it seems to make its way into setlists a lot when there a bunch of better songs out there. Just my opinion. I agree. |

Totally agree! And gone are the Wings songs...I hope it's only for this sort of 'Greatest hits' tour.

And my opinion, I agree. For me "Sign of the times" is a nice song, but from the middle of the table. Could provide an opportunity other tracks how "Ninja", "Heart of Stone", "Start from the Dark", "Always the Pretenders" ... I guess this song must really like the band. |

Another song that could be played is 'Halfway To Heaven', Norum should play some more Prisoners songs from time to time. Let's not forget that one of the songs mentioned on the official press release of this tour was 'Prisoners in Paradise' and it wasn't played. |

Let's not forget that one of the songs mentioned on the official press release of this tour was 'Prisoners in Paradise' and it wasn't played. However - if I've understood correctly the meaning of a tour with Foreigner, Europe and FM Official !- these shows are more around the 80's "hard FM" spirit. I suppose they selected more songs in their most successful album TFC, and then 2 songs from OTW album, which had more success than PIP and WOT (only 1 song from these 2 CD). The setlist is short, so the choice was limited. The question is : why "SOTT" instead of "ready or not", for example ? And why "scream of anger" instead of "Dance the night away" ? Surely, there're people in the band fond of SOA and SOTT... |

Foreigner is a band something prior to EUROPE, I read that they released their first album in the year 77 ... they are from an earlier era, ... for me the tour last year with Whitesnake & Dep Leppard had more a spirit eighties. I have to admit I do not really like FM or Foraigner even when both are good bands, I'm just interested in seeing our guys. Besides their love for "Sign of the times" from WOT also always play live "Scream of Anger", sounds great ... but I was totally in love with "Stormwind" in Live, in Madrid sounded soooo good .. !!! And for example I would love to listen to "Ready or Not" in live ... is another wonder, and leaves a bit out "Scream of Anger"

Yes, I agree with you. It's not that I don't like SOTT, but I often find myself scratching my head regarding their song selections  I mean with a fairly short set like this, why not just play your very best stuff. Of course everyone has a different view about what that is...but..no 'Always the Pretenders', no 'Love is not the Enemy' and no 'No Stone Unturned'. Hmmm |
