unless he's going to split them up or do something different with them, I think we've had enough of that Take Me With U/Raspberry Beret medley. what's it been, every show for 13 years?

I don't think he should retire any song, just have more variations in the set lists.

one or both were played regularly at the O2. i love Rapberry Beret. If he played it in it's entirety and sang it all himself instead of giving it to the audience, well that'd be great.

Another one to get rid of, 'Nothing Compares 2 U'.

I'm not saying he should retire it but maybe play something else instead of 'Shhh'.

That`s easy.

Raspberry beret.

Unless : he plays it alone, kinda like he does with Forever in my life.

Linndrum, some bass and vocals, just one verse. Fine.

Or even better : just don`t play it.

Play "Play in the sunshine" or "Party up" or "I don`t wanna stop" or

"I wish you heaven".

Love...thy will b done

That was my first thought, but it's not a 'hit' in the regular meaning of the word (neither is "Controversy") so then I'd go with "Nothing Compares 2 U" which should have been retired after the D&P tour.

A lot of people complain about the TMWU/RB medley but in truth, how many times was it performed?

Guess not, but it's been overplayed just the same.
