      dontcarrytheworld:

      I Will > FourFiveSeconds This One > Mr Kite I have this dream that I'm seeing him playing Uncle Albert/ Admiral Halsey and singing "HAAAANDS ACROSS THE WATER. HEEAAADS ACROSS THE SKY". This would be so amazing.

      Yes!! Or even Take It Away! Please get rid of Mr. Kite Paul!

      For each Paul concert I have my "favorites". For the first Out There concert I went to, Mr. Kite was one of my favorites. The laser effects and the ability of the band to recreate that song in a live setting was just AWESOME. During the second Out There concert I saw, Lovely Rita was one of my favorites. It was a great song to sing along to. So each concert is a different experience for me; a song that might not have caught my attention at one concert impressed me in the next. As far as removing Mr. Kite, I wouldn't be opposed (although it's a GREAT song live for those who haven't heard it for themselves). I think one of the reasons Paul keeps it in there is because he enjoys playing it (kudos to him). I do miss Lovely Rita in the set, but he can't possibly keep everything! Some songs that I hope he decides to bring back to the current tour are The Long and Winding Road, Jet, and Daytripper. -Rubber Soul13

      He just cannot sing The Long and Winding Road anymore, so I don't want him to add it back. Wouldn't mind Jet or Day Tripper though. (Or Lovely Rita!)

        This may be an unpopular opinion, but I certainly think All My Loving should return to the set

        Why unpopular? It's one of the greatest songs. I always love to hear it, whether live or on record. And what about Drive My Car? At times I just crave to hear that song and cannot go on without it ;).

        Unpopular opinion on this site, as many of the members here are diehards who long for a fresh setlist with fewer repeats from previous tours. I don't think anyone here actually dislikes songs like All My Loving, Can't Buy Me Love, Drive My Car, etc. It's just that we've been there/done that. Many. Times. And his catalog has so many gems he never touches. So we sometimes get frustrated.

        I see, yes, of course you're right. Has he done I'm Looking Through You or Hold Me Tight? P.S. I Love You as an encore...? Then some 'newer' ones, too. Have to think about that.

          He's never played "Hold Me Tight" and has let "I'm Looking Through You" pop in every now and then, but only in a rotational setting. TO put it in perspective, of the twelve shows I've been to...I've only heard it one time...and it was GREAT!

              I assumed the Beatle tune since all the others she mentioned were Beatles but to my knowledge, neither song has ever been played live in a Beatles, Wings, or Solo setting by "the man"!

                I've always thought Hold Me Tight (Beatles) would be a cool song to have third in the show, where Can't Buy Me Love is now.

                  Funnily enough I caught it at the rare short outing in 2010 before he dropped it instantly... then heard it again in 2012 during that rare time he brought it back... he then dropped it for good... didn't see him for 3 years... aaaaand it was back when I finally saw him again when he brought it back specifically for the crowds he played it for 3 years before lol. Sometimes there's just no line in it whatsoever. By any means no bother to hear every other gig.

                    I saw I'm Looking Through You in 2012, and it was one of the coolest moments of seeing Paul for me, since I didn't know he was doing it beforehand

                      Yes, Nancy R, I meant the Beatles' Hold Me Tight. Other songs I'd like to see in a show would be That Would Be Something, almost any song from Flaming Pie and Ballroom Dancing. Or Wanderlust.

                        I thought you meant the Beatles' version. Just checking! Would love to hear it too. It's one of their songs I can play on my guitar (and sing) with my son. If he still had his pre-2003 voice, would love to hear Beautiful Night, Wanderlust, Calico Skies, Little Willow, Tomorrow, No More Lonely Nights, etc.!

                                I'd be happy if Another Girl returned! also any of these- Lovely Rita Penny Lane Your Mother Should Know I'm Looking Through You I Will The Night Before For No One I'll Get You Please Please Me Till There Was You I'll Follow The Sun Fixing A Hole She's A Woman Good Day Sunshine... so many Beatles songs that he either hasn't done in a long time or were dropped too soon. also, Wings/Solo- Coming Up Venus and Mars/Rock Show Mrs Vanderbilt Bluebird Flaming Pie Only Mama Knows Every Night Hope Of Deliverance Let Em In so much that he could do.... and that's just songs that have been played in the last 15 years

                                  But the "ship has sailed" for so many of his great songs. He just can no longer do them justice vocally.

                                    A song I thought that worked really well live but didn't get enough attention was Hope for the Future. I always thought the song was a bit 'meh' but hearing it live changed my opinion completely!

                                        He needs to be more willing to drop the keys on some of these tunes too. That would salvage so much of the catalog that is seemingly untouchable now.
