The song was slightly re-worked for the 'Beautifulgarbage' tour and became the closing song for the majority of those shows. By 2005, and the 'Bleed Like Me' tour the song had undergone another change, with a completely new intro over which Shirley Manson would often sing the lyrics from "Singing In The Rain".
