They are just about all listed from live performances I've seen, apart from Deadmaus.... which i had as a ring tone and then had played on strings at my wedding. Though i also had sweet child of mine as well!. One I would never have listed before was Believe by Chemicals. They had a huge screen backdrop for a gig they did in the middle of Trafalgar Square, it was bonkers watching red buses skim the perimeter and standing by Nelsons Column. Believe was a long extended version with a long delay til the heavy beats dropped. Probably went on for about 12 minutes. The crowd went nuts.
