That Mary Hopkin song is a cover of the Sparks song "Never turn your back on mother earth" and there was also a song by the Swedish singer Tommy Körberg, "Judy, min vän", which was in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1969, that Morrissey in a recent interview (Nöjesguiden) claimed to be his favourite song.

And I just noticed at allmusic that Tony Visconti produced one of Mary Hopkins albums.

Thanks!

Looks like the same music as in Gothenburg yesterday. One of the songs missing is "Judy min vän" by Tommy Körberg.
 
let's fill in the gaps!

OK, compiling from dallow_bg's original post on in the postshow comments from Oklahoma City, plus the information in this thread, I believe this is what we have thus far. Was track #9 the Tommy Korberg song?

Post-opener / Pre-headliner music:

1. Punk song, female vocals

2. Punk song, male vocals [original post says 'possibly The Ramones?' - I don't think so, as I talked to the sound man postshow in Tulsa and he reported only two Ramones songs?]

3. Mary Hopkin - Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth (Sparks cover)

4. The Ramones - Carbona Not Glue

5. sounds older, 60s/70s, female vocalist, chorus went "Got'em got'em got'em gone"

6. Olivia Newton-John - Long Live Love

7. kind of a rockabilly-ish song, starts and ends with that stereotypical riff melody that means "China", with guitars of course

8. spoken word track with the line "presumably we need two hands to open the door"

9. acoustic song, male vocalist, i believe it was in Italian [was this in fact Judy, Min Vän by Tommy Körberg?]

10. Why Is It Always This Way by The Ramones

11 Older French(?) song, sounded very bouncy with a circus like sound

12 The Boyfriends - I Love You (http://www.myspace.com/myboyfriendsback)

13 an upbeat summer song? male vocals

14 You'll Never Walk Alone - The Smoking Popes (cover)

band entrance music: What a Pretty by Jobriath

-

Please add anything you know! Incidentally, in Oklahoma City, an abbreviated version of the above list was played. The list is from opening night in Tulsa.

Yes, that's because they were married!

Someone said this in a comment on the mainpage:
"The music in the PA before the show was great as always. I did not recognize all songs though. I only remember that there were two Ramones songs, one Italian song and Tommy Körbergs 'Judy min vän'."
 
Re: let's fill in the gaps!

Track 2 is "Seven Deadly Finns" by Brian Eno and track 7 is "Bad Detective" by (surprise, surprise...) the New York Dolls. Track 8 on your list is most likely "The Book" by Magazine (which was also on the 2002 intro tape), but that one wasn't played in Gothenburg or Stockholm.
