Speedway...or Spring-Heeled Jim?

[lepoeteforcat]

Moz needs to bring back Speedway or Spring-Heeled Jim to 2009 live set, I think the current band could bring something new to a classic song...any thoughts

Erm...why not both?

Erm...why not both?

We can have both.

But if i were to choose just one i'd take Spring-Heeled Jim. Haven't heard that one in quite some time.

 

[Disappointed]

Both songs are extremely powerful, and kick butt live.

 

[SparkleBoy]

Speedway as the final song. No encore...just Speedway.

 

[Corrissey]

I would die to hear either!!

I've always been a big Spring-Heeled Jim fan, but I think Speedway would be rather fitting on tour. All of the rumors keeping me grounded... I think SparkleBoy's onto something with that as an encore.

Why shouldn't Morrissey do a 'classic' song like this. Think how it would energize the room! And honestly, how many more times is he going to come around or are we going to be able to see him? I'm not saying he's 'going anywhere', I'm just saying. Give us one, Mozzer!!

Both are great songs and both have sounded better live than on V&I.
Though if I had to pick one, I'd say Speedway. It's just one of the best songs.

Speedway, and the ballsy 1995/1997 version, not the Spike Smith Can't Drum 1999/2000 version or the limp 2002 one.

Because He Must.

 

[mspendl828]

Speedway with the slow build of the 2002 version.

 

[withmyheadonthebar]

Speedway. Any version - I don't mind.

 

[duchess]

both would be great - but speedway if we could only have one of them.

I'd cry.

 

[Chartres]

Speedway anno 2002 and Spring-Heeled Jim kicks ass.

 

[Have-A-Go Merchant]

Always Speedway.
