How many songs will they play at the NME awards?

Based on previous sets, when the Specials won 'outstanding contribution' in 2010, they played just one song. Likewise PJ Harvey in 2011.

So is just gonna be the one song?

Common People? Sorted? Disco 2000? Which is it to be?

My money's on Disco 2000.

 Just one?  Pah!  I guess it will be Common People, but Jarvis humping along to Hardcore would be more interesting.

If they play a few, I reckon Disco 2000, Common People and Razzmatazz (+ Babies if they play that many).

In fact, maybe even Glory Days, or a very early single but I'm probably just been optimistic that they won't go for the safe option in CP or Disco 2000

First thing I thought when I saw this was "Something Changed"...

I think it would be very, very unlikely that they'd play Common People, especially if it was the only song they were playing. Babies and Something Changed are possible but I reckon that Jarvis won't want to be behind a guitar...

Do you not think the NME will lean on them, having the overall impact on the wider public of their event in mind, to just deliver a stonking rendition of Common People for the soundbites?

Surely, if Russell does appear and performs with the band it would be better if they played something with his disinctive violin. So Common People it is then!

Well, it WON'T (or at least SHOULDN'T be) This Is Hardcore, as it doesn't feature Russell. I reckon it'll be DYRTFT?, & rightly so.
