  04:43  Harbours And Stations  [Live] -The crowd does not have to wait anymore and the driving beat begins. It's an amazing song to begin a set especially when a sampled woman's voice says "T21 live". The crowd goes wild! Bruno's exceptional guitar is amazing! This is an an excellent version of an excellent song but it could never live up to the studio version. The sampled voice of the woman in the beginning is extremely cool. "Oh, Julia, for God's sake, let me have a glass of liquor." This song does lack the keyboard sampled/played horns which are in the studio version. Still, it's an amazing song: "Love & devotion!"

  04:10  The Last Song  [Live] - This song is so amazing even if it's in the raw. Check out info and lyrics for The Last Song on this special link...

  03:35  Waiting For  [Live] - This live version has the normal hard beat which is odd. Philippe's voice is really cool in the version. The guitar of Bruno is also incredibly cool. Though there are no special sound effects in here, the song and the music can stand alone in it's raw/live form. "It's your life. No desire in your eyes. I'm waiting for.... passion  and love (fire?) No desire in your eyes"

  04:25  Sharing Sensation  [Live] - This song has a long beginning. The pounding beat and the strong synth creates a strong atmosphere of romance and passion. At one part, Philippe's voice gets really high when he sings, "You are r-r-reaching!", rolling the r's. It sounds out of place... Not as good as the studio version... but still good.

  05:15  Some Twenty One Miles From The Coast  [Live] - The song takes off like a airplane flying off a runway. The beat and melody to this song is so cool that I actually feel like I'm flying. Philippe's voice in this song is cool too. Like Waiting For, there aren't any wild sound effects but the song stands alone in it's raw / live form. "So you must try.... this life you're talking about.

  04:27  La Fête Triste  [Live] - This is a beautiful instrumental in it's live form. Philippe announces the song and the crowd cheers loudly. I'm not sure if this is the same version on Side By Side. There is crowd in the beginning on this one but it comes in and cheers twice in the beginning like the one on Side by Side. It's a beautiful melody played on keyboards. The synth percussion begins lightly like sparkles or poofs. It gently flows through the song like a gas but then, it gets harder toward the end. This makes the song much more serious and dramatic. The pounding beat is hard and we know that this song means business. It's an amazing version of an already amazing song. Another TRISOMIE 21 classic!

  05:10  Il Se Noie  [Live] - Philippe announces the song and the crowd cheers. Then, he sings it without the special vocal effects from The First Songs. This song is very pretty.Like La Fete Triste, the light synth percussion flows through the song like a gas. Though the lyrics are all in French, the melody of the instruments is french too. It's a perfect song to represent their culture and background. It's a beautiful song even in the ears of people who cannot understand the language.

  04:02  A Dirge For Love  [Live] - This is a cool version of the original. Bruno really gets down on his exceptional guitar. He has a very metallic way of playing. Philippe announces in the beginning: "A dirge for love!"... They prove to be an excellent live band.. "You'll wait for me, won't you? I'm coming back soon.. There's nothing to be said about it, what's to be done? Boys will be boys.. with the help of (freedom? Heaven?) The more you speak people listen to you......" The horns of the keyboard and the bass is not as tight as the studio but it's still an excellent version.

  04:00  Another Move  [Live] - This is a TRISOMIE 21 classic! This is probably the best version of this song! The keyboard starts it off and Philippe sings, "I'm moving by you, I'm moving by you, I'm moving by you". The beat hits hard and passionate and so does the keyboards. Though it lacks the layered melody of the studio versions and the voice samples, the lyrics and the passion in Philippe's voice makes this live version completely perfect. Especially at the end, when Philippe really gets into it. Another T21 classic!... absolutely amazing!

  06:07  West Wind  [Live] - The woman speaks an excerpt the famous pooem. This instrumental is pretty much the same as the studio version but it has the sampled woman (or live woman) reciting the brilliant poem. It adds a nice touch. It definitely makes the song better. At the end, they use the sample from The Messenger to say farewell to the crowd: "Goodnight everybody!" and the crowd cheers!
