The In Crowd for me too, it's my favourite Ferry single and favourite opening album track. You can't beat that sexy bass intro, the rest of the band joining in and prowling and growling, fabulous "knowing" vocal and a manic blitzkrieg guitar outro that sucks your brain down a cosmic plughloe.
re-make/re-model in the style of AEWBF version would always be a welcome opener for me. but the band won't be able to pull that off i suspect, given the instruments available....but otherwise: manifesto (original long intro version) the in crowd (but it needs nasty guitar) sign of the times (but then straight into another up tempo number)
somewhere in the set: in your mind four letter love beauty queen beauty queen beauty queen sea breezes (pretty please, with clever vocal rearrangement, by necessity)
BQ is one of my favs and I play it quite a lot. BF was in fine voice back in 73 but I think he would struggle to get anywhere near singing it nowadays, especially live.
