During the In the Flesh tour "Each Small Candle" was included in the encore of all the concerts of the 2000, and some of the concerts of the 2002 tour (alternating with "Flickering Flame", another new song).
Most of the lyrics were inspired by a news story from the Kosovo war of a Serbian soldier who saw a wounded Albanian woman, left his ranks and helped her.
