Analysis and Explanation

Soldier's Poem was played rather often in 2006 and 2007 because of the fact that it is quite short. It was skipped at nearly every October 2006 gig 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).

After the Black Holes and Reverlations Tour, the song reappeared just five times, at two stadium gigs in 2010 and at all three Eastern European dates in 2011, and has not been seen from since. The possibility of it returning is possible, like how Take a Bow had a revival in 2016, but it looks unlikely. Although 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.
