== Analysis and Explanation ==
== Analysis and Explanation ==
Soldier's Poem was played rather often in 2006 and 2007 because of the fact that it is quite short. It wasn't played at nearly all October 2006 gigs and rarely appeared during the early 2007 Oceanic tour, however was played rather regularly after that. During September through November 2007, it was played at nearly every date. However, between the Mexico City gig and the Wembley gigs in 2007, it did not make a single appearance (roughly two months time). It is also, perhaps, the most skipped song of all time in the sense that there are more times where the song was in the setlist but not played than any other song (ex. Nov 17 2007, June 23 2007, Feb 28 2007, Nov 29 2006, Oct 24 2006). Soldier's Poem reappeared just five times in the following tour, only two multi-night gigs in 2010 and all three Eastern European dates in 2011, and has not been seen from since. It was generally performed on guitar during concerts, but some gigs in 2006 featured the song on piano, which has not been used since around the Rome 2006 gig.
Soldier's Poem was played regularly during 2006 and 2007, mainly due to the song being quite short and simple to perform live, often being played as the first song of the encore. Early performances of the song had Matt playing the song on piano, but later ones had him playing acoustic guitar as on the album. However, it made just 3 appearances in 2008 before being dropped at the end of the tour.


The chance of seeing this song live again is a possibility, especially due to Take a Bow's recent 2016 revival. It is not nearly as popular with fans, however; in a poll of 500 fans conducted in November 2015, out of a total thirty songs that had not been played since The Resistance era, fans voted Soldier's Poem as the twenty-ninth most requested song to make a return to setlists.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20151126224641/http://strawpoll.me/6086378/r]</ref>
Since the Black Holes and Reverlations Tour ended, the song has only been played 5 times. At two stadium gigs in 2010 and at all three Eastern European dates in 2011. Although it looks unlikely it will return anytime soon, it was a setlist option at the [[London Shepherds Bush_Empire 2017 (gig)|2017 Shepherd's Bush Empire]] by request gig, indicating that the band have not given up on the song yet.

This page contains a list of all known performances of Soldier's Poem.

Analysis and Explanation

Soldier's Poem was played regularly during 2006 and 2007, mainly due to the song being quite short and simple to perform live, often being played as the first song of the encore. Early performances of the song had Matt playing the song on piano, but later ones had him playing acoustic guitar as on the album. However, it made just 3 appearances in 2008 before being dropped at the end of the tour.

Since the Black Holes and Reverlations Tour ended, the song has only been played 5 times. At two stadium gigs in 2010 and at all three Eastern European dates in 2011. Although it looks unlikely it will return anytime soon, it was a setlist option at the 2017 Shepherd's Bush Empire by request gig, indicating that the band have not given up on the song yet.
