Huh?  I was there (and one of the six or seven people in the audience who
responded when she asked if anyone was into Talk Talk) and she definitely
sang something from "The Colour Of Spring".  I think it was "Life's What
You Make It."

Speaking of Talk Talk, does anyone know if they've done anything recently?
TCOS is one of my all time favourite albums, but their followup album was
way too weird for me.  (The one with the tree on it, I haven't looked at or
listened to it in so long I forget the title).

PS: She really is much better live.  I rarely never felt that about
    an artist -- I mean I appreciate the live performance for what it is,
    but it's usually a lot "rougher" than the album.  But Sarah and her
    band were really amazing.  Maybe it being the last tour date helped,
    but they could have just set up a microphone and recorded a live
    album without even editing!
