Falling Down was one of the last songs on Showbiz to make its live debut, making no known appearances before 1999. Performed for just two years, Falling Down was rather common in both 1999 and 2000 before it was dropped from setlists, most likely due to its length.

These performances saw the song both shortened (third verse and chorus were skipped) and most notably the song was played on piano instead of guitar. Additional synths played by Morgan were also added. The song was only played in the European leg of the tour and was dropped once again at the end of the year, making no appearances in 2013.

Analysis and Explanation

Falling Down was one of the last songs on Showbiz to make its live debut, making no known appearances before 1999. Performed for just two years, Falling Down was played regularly from 1999-2000 before it was permanently dropped from setlists, most likely due to its length.

During a #askmuse session on Twitter in September 2012, Matt stated that the band may play Falling Down again during the upcoming tour.[1] Surprisingly, this turned out to be true, and after a 12 year absence the song finally made its return for The 2nd Law Tour. These performances saw the song both shortened (third verse and chorus were skipped) and most notably the song was played on piano instead of guitar. Additional synths played by Morgan were also added. The song was only played in the European leg of the tour and was dropped once again at the end of the year, making no appearances in 2013.

Though the song hasn't been performed since 2012, the band apparently have not given up on performing the song as it was a setlist option for the 2017 Shepherds Bush Empire by request show.
