Revolver nomination

[KevShmev]

If you want to see what the real fanbase thinks, go to a DT concert. There is no way you can go to a DT concert and believe that people don't like the last two albums as much as anything else. TDEN got the biggest positive reaction of any DT song in the shows I've seen, and ANTR went down damn well, and the crowd even loved the build up and joining in with the MP vocals.

This is only partially true, at least from my perspective. Yes, TDEN did get an incredible reaction. I for one went completely crazy and yelled out the verses along with everyone else in the audience, but for some reason, I didn't get that excited when I played it yesterday at home. Some of the songs will get you moving live, even though you aren't exactly in love with them. Even if they played You not me, I think it would get me moving, just because I'm excited to see such a band live.

Very true.  Some songs simply come off better live, and those are not necessarily always the best ones.  I am not surprised that rockers like The Dark Eternal Night and Constant Motion would get good reactions live; both are brainless rockers that are easy to rock out to live. 

In fact, I can see that being a reason why This Is the Life hasn't been played live yet.  While a really great song, I can see it being sort of an average live tune, and definitely one the average live crowd might not go crazy over.
