SPARKS

I'd like to have "Alabamy Right". (I already voted for that, but it's not been put on the list yet.)
Also, "After Dark" and "Jane Church" would be great, because I've never been able to work out most of the lyrics, so a live rendition might be the only chance of doing that.

Looks Aren't Everything would be my choice. I think everyone should back that, because it is an amazing song.

I won't be greedy and request another one, although If I were greedy, I'd choose 'Get Laid' from the Arista demos, 'Marry Me' or 'The Factory'.

Much as I like the obscure songs, I'm gonna have to go with the ol' classic - Number 1 song in heaven. Perhaps a new remixed version?

Welcome back Orange, I have not seen you for a long time :)
Or maybe you have been here but I have not seen you.

Singing In The Shower

We have been asked to suggest a song for the second “Greatest Hits” set. My concern is that looking through the suggestions so far, are we in danger of alienating a large section of the audience as some of these songs are inaccessible to newer and the not quite so "die hard" Sparks fans who may never have heard of them let alone have actually heard them before? Bearing in mind that the first half of the show will also be new to everyone (albeit that many of us will have been playing it over and over for the past month by 13 June) I hope we manage to keep some real foot stomping old favourites in there of the kind that usually bring the house down in the second part of any Sparks show of late.

Since I've yet to hear it, I vote for:

Islington N1

Even though it would be played at Shepherds Bush W12?!

lost&found has a point...but I voted for Where Did I leave My Halo precisely because it is a rare track...though I too would like a rip-roaring stomper of a set too,so we need a few real crowd pleasers...and nobody thought to ask if R&R have a favourite track or two that they might really want to perform(spanner in the works ...lol)
Still think we are getting perilously close to having EVERY Sparks song in existence on this list...oh well such is life...
