Originally posted by podiumboy:I think U2 lost faith in Little Things because they felt the audiences response to it was underwhelmed. Here you have a tour that's a legacy album tour, targeted to appeal to a lot of casual fans. Then they decide to end this concert with a new song, that nobody has heard, hasn't even been released yet. And even thought it's a good song, it is a bit of a slow burn. So it's no surprise that while they were playing it, a lot of people were heading for the exits to beat the traffic.
Originally posted by germcevoy:I loved the GA in Croke saying ‘is that it?’ After Little Things. Lovely sing but a terrible closer. Then stop see the crowd erupt for I Will Follow as a closer and you ask yourself how the band can prefer one over the other.
Originally posted by podiumboy:If they just wouldn’t have closed with Little Things, it would’ve been different. Put it anywhere else in the set. It’s a great song, but their decision to end the shows with it is baffling. But knowing them, they probably saw how the audiences responded to closing with One or IWF and thought “little things just isn’t as good of a song” and abandoned it.
