What a song this is
live! So happy they did something unexpected. Imagine if they play/ed even more deep cuts over the years. New album + deep cuts + some classics is the best scenario in most cases.

This photo comes from Bruce’s personal archive. It shows him as a tourist visiting the legendary land of Brobdingnag, home of the giants.
Apparently, Bruce became a little too comfortable, wandered away from the guided tour group, and climbed onto the desk of a giant scholar. At the time, the giant was away, but soon emerged from another cavernous room, sat down at the desk, and began scribbling giant-sized prophecies.
Bruce had no choice but to pretend he was a decorative statuette that had been gathering dust on the table for centuries.
The photo was taken by his wife, Leana, who - along with the rest of the tourists - had taken refuge inside an extravagantly oversized teapot in the kitchen. From Bruce’s rigid pose and silent lip-syncing, she immediately understood that he was calling for help:
‘Yeah, oh…’ (The giant has appeared.)
‘Help me…’ (Bruce begins silently mouthing for assistance while maintaining the posture of a nightmarishly stiff statuette.)
‘Help me to find my true self without seeing the future…’ (At this point he is negotiating with his wife, who now possesses tremendous leverage to secure various concessions and desirable changes in her husband’s behavior.)
‘Save me…’ (Bruce is becoming genuinely desperate.)
‘Save me from torturing myself even within my dreams… ow.’ (Bruce becomes excessively theatrical.)
At one point, the giant considered dipping his writing quill into the strange murmuring statuette to replenish the ink. Bruce would have found himself in serious trouble, and somewhere deep in the recesses of her mind, Leana was not entirely opposed to seeing how that situation might unfold.
Fortunately, the giant suddenly heard some mystical summons and retreated into the depths of his cave-like residence.
Bruce immediately rejoined the guide, and together with his wife and the other wealthy tourists, safely departed the land of the giants.
To commemorate what he later described as the third birthday of his life, he cast his vote for ‘Infinite Dreams’ to be included on the current tour.
THE END.
