Ministry - What A Wonderful World


The Last Sucker is the eleventh studio album by industrial metal band Ministry, released in 2007 through 13th Planet Records.

Ministry's farewell tour, the "C-U-LaTour", started its North American leg on March 26, 2008 with Meshuggah performing as special guests and Hemlock as an opening act. The final date on their farewell tour was at the Tripod in Dublin, Ireland on 18 July 2008. During the performance, Jourgensen repeatedly reaffirmed that it would indeed be the last ever Ministry show. Due to a large demand for tickets, an extra gig was added at the Tripod on 19 July 2008. The band again played to a full house. It was clear that the band were not expecting so much support, as the merchandise stall was sold out before the gig even got under way. Ministry's final song at this show (and ostensibly their last ever live performance) was a rendition of their cover version of "What a Wonderful World".
And is a song by Bob Thiele, George David Weiss, and George Douglas.
The song was first recorded by Louis Armstrong and released as a single in 1968.

Enjoy!
