If the aim is for songs that are easier for a group to sing, I would go for Autumn, Rivers. I think "Light go out" would also work well. Between Dog and Wolf.    I am a fan of the songs with  more long, narrative versus but think they are harder to sing. I know some are coming from France and Italy who  do not know so much english. One friend of mine often uses translate.  I imagine something like "Another Imperial Day" or Island would be harder for them than it would for native speakers.

In all seriousness though, if you think about it some of those tunes won't lend themselves to a hushed atmosphere.
I was listening to NBTS yesterday and couldn't help thinking that GREEN and TWILIGHT HOME especially would work wonderfully!

Hopefully it won't be a hushed atmosphere with everyone belting it out

I wonder if the name 1000 voices came from the song White Light?

As my son is half French half Morrocan, and will be at the concert, I have to tell that Marrakech is a good idea :-)

Ah, what about Price then? Just think about its chorus... Agreed that Brave New World piano version might be crackin' awesome.   

I or Minna aren't able to join the gig, unfortunately. But as some people have mentioned it would really be very interesting to see a DVD release about the gig.

It would be curious to know how the singing of audience will be recorded? How will the audio technicians do It...

Yeah, same here.  I imagine it's going to be quite challenging, new, interesting... hopefully not a chore, burden, headache.  That's a lot of voices they'll be dealing with.

Rusco, hope you don't mind, I'd like to post your question in another thread.  If that's not ok, let me know.
