Still the greatest thing this band has ever done in my eyes

Can we please have it on the setlist for the forthcoming UK Tour?

I was listening this today and wondering how far in advance I could request it for the yet-to-be-scheduled Austin show.

I feel ya Paul!1

I've only ever seen it at 2 shows :(

Not sure if it made an appearance during The Boy tour, but i think it's about due a comeback

I don't think it was on TBWNN tour at all, but it's one of my top choices for Travis songs I want to hear live...along with many others ;)! As much as I love "Flowers In The Window" and the way they do it live now, maybe they could swap it out for a new and exciting live version of "More Than Us" where they do something fun on stage towards the end of the show since they've been doing "Flowers" for a while now.

I think the lyrics are right up there with the best ever, I'd love to hear it live. I'd love to hear I Love You Anyways more though :D

it's one of their best - I do prefer the original version without all the violins, though. Purer.

They played "I Love You Anyways" live in Detroit! It was brilliant!

I've never seen it live either. I love the Fran/Dougie/Andy harmonies. There are soooo many songs I really want to hear live but if I had to choose one, it would be this one.

I have a vague recollection of hearing this song on the last tour. They played it a few times i think

Good to see a lot of support for More Than Us. Hopefully it'll work and we'll all get to hear it on the forthcoming tour :)

I really like this song too... very special for me :)

it is the first Travis song that I've discovered on a compilation amongst some other stuff. The song captivated me, everything, the lyrics and the melody, the delicate guitar part is perfect.
I couldn't believe 'More Than Us' was on their first album because the other songs were so loud, so rock'n roll... at first I was pretty scared ;-)
