I wish Ed would stop holding the mic to the audience, especially at festivals, on the bridge of I Alone. The casual fan does not know the words to the bridge. Heck, I've heard that song thousands of times, and gun to my head, I'm not sure I could get it 100% right. In fact, let's try it. This is what I think it is....

Oh now you took it back to far,
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn,
all come running back to you,
all these riddles that you hide,
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn, yeah yeah yeah...

Just Googled it and, yup, it turns out I got a few words wrong. This is what it actually is.

Oh, now, we took it back too far
Only love can save us now
All these riddles that you burn
All come runnin' back to you
All these rhythms that you hide
Only love can save us now
All these riddles that you burn yeah, yeah, yeah

Point is, in 2017, the casual concertgoer can't sing along to this. It's also my favorite part of the song (even if I don't know all the words) and I'd rather hear Ed sing it then a silent audience.

In general, I'm not a huge fan of mic to the audience at all, but if Ed must point the mic to the audience, do it once during the chorus of Lighting Crashes and on the line "I Alone tempt you" on I Alone. That's it.
