good songs for concerts

'Disappointed', 'First of The Gang' and 'Pigsty'.
 
My live faves:

- Panic
- I Will See You in Far-off Places
- HSIN? (still!)
- Ask
- The Loop
- Sister I'm A Poet
- Tomorrow
- Trouble Loves Me
- Ganglord
 
Favourites from recent years include:

Life is a Pigsty (Really missed it this year at the shows)
Death of a Disco Dancer (Brilliant every time, even if the new keyboard player is a bit loud on it this year)
Stretch Out and Wait (love it)
How Soon is Now (Never gets old)
Something is Squeezing My Skull (Highlight for me this year)
The Youngest Was the Most Loved (Great in '06)
 
Just wondered which songs you enjoy best at the concerts and why.

The reason I ask is that I really like Seasick, one of my favourite songs, but it has left me in a strange emotional state during two concerts so that I wonder in the other direction which songs you feel are for you most enjoyable to listen to at Morrissey concerts. Not thinking of favourite songs as such, but favourite songs in the actual concert setting.

I like seasick. When he played it at the Manchester gigs it sent tingles down my spine, it's very meloncholic when played in a concert setting.
 
Have to go with Death of a Disco Dancer. Great song on "Strangeways" but it just goes to a different level live. Love it!

... pretty exhaustive list :p I think these are all ace and have been the highlights of the 9 gigs I've been to so far. Viva Moz!
