| Probably just 'cos the last "Turn" in the chorus overruns into the start of the second verse. |

"The tradition came after Fran ran out of breath during a practice and asked Dougie to sing it. "I said all right and slowly but surely I'm beginning to sing in tune". Andy said "Let me just put the record straight, the girls love it!""

Same here. Whether in person or on Tv. I've always seen Dougie do it. |

This has got me thinking, what songs has Dougie sung live? (Even partially solo like Turn)
Turn
Know Nothing
Ring Out The Bell
All The Young Dudes
Does he have any other cameo parts? I can't recall any off the top of my head.
Do not include purely backing vocals that are sung with Fran and Andy. |

i cant think of anymore. there's alot of Bsides he's written but not sure if they have been done live.
also, i wonder why dougie didn't want to sing colder even though he wrote it. |

Not saying you're lying. Just saying that i've never seen it. I'm sure he did in the early days of the song. Its a very old song actually. Early 90's i believe. |

Dougie has done Just The Faces Change quite a few times. |
