Bono - I've Got You Under My Skin (13-April-2013)

[u2popmofo]

Has anyone mentioned his tendency to lie? If not, I'd like to take this opportunity to call him a liar. Bono absolutely does not have me under his skin.

 

[Rhiannon64]

I love that Bono is having so much fun doing this performance. He owned that stage. There's a joy in his voice. And he sounds GREAT! The man has still got it!

 

[Mrs. Garrison]

I haven't seen you around here in awhile!

I've been somewhat preoccupied

 

[Mrs. Garrison]

I love that Bono is having so much fun doing this performance. He owned that stage. There's a joy in his voice. And he sounds GREAT! The man has still got it!

My thoughts as well. He looked and sounded great.

 

[Vlaco]

Yes! Thank you for helping prove my point. That was how many years ago? Quite a few. Here he is 2 days ago.

Because other people his age have bellies, that doesn't make Bono being fit. I was just joking, I didn't know it was such a tender spot for you.
He was (very) fat in the picture I mentioned, he looks more in proportion these days. Satisfied?

And now everyone together please speak after me:

WE REALLY REALLY NEED A NEW U2 ALBUM!!!!

 

[Nick66]

Calm down everyone, the new record will be here when the trees are stripped bare.

Unless, of course, you live in the southern hemisphere.

I don't think some of the people who commented on the vocals in this video would know the difference between a low register, a cash register, or a heating register

 

[jeevey]

I did wonder if that was sudden weight loss or the world's best tailor. Maybe some of both. Either way, it's working.

Doesn't it seem like some of the growliness in the lower notes is a stylistic choice because he's doing Sinatra?

If the new U2 album sounds like Michael Bublé this place is going to be awesome.

 

[iron yuppie]

If the new U2 album sounds like Michael Bublé this place is going to be awesome.

I'd be down for an album full of jazz standards. Really mix things up a bit, with some coveted "new sounds" for Edge.

 

[last unicorn]

I'm all for a Bono solo crooner album. Sadly, that won't happen.

On the other hand, good for U2. Otherwise the new album will take 6 more years.

 

[last unicorn]

That's the version he sang in Dublin before Christmas. Not so bad either:

Why do I have such a hankering for a walnut whip?

That's is funny Gvox I shall save this in my folder of funny things people say online

 

[The Sad Punk]

I'm all for a Bono solo crooner album.

I can't imagine anything worse.

 

[djerdap]

A Larry solo crooner album?

[iron yuppie]

How about an Adam spoken-word album.

 

[djerdap]

Well, he does do that on one of the best songs U2 has done so maybe it wouldn't be that bad.

 

[corianderstem]

I can't imagine anything worse.

Yeah. As much as I enjoy Bono's singing, the last thing we need is another pop singer giving us his take on the old standards. Or anything else croony.

What are you talking about? He and Rod Stewart can do a Christmas album!

 

[corianderstem]

Excuse me a moment ...

*turns aside, vomits in a ladylike fashion*

 

[digitize]

What are you talking about? He and Rod Stewart can do a Christmas album!

 

[Cactus Annie]

He's a rock singer Bono is

 

[last unicorn]

He is. But strangely, Bono has some of his finest voice moments when he's not with his band.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

How about an Adam spoken-word album.

I would buy dozens of copies.

 

[corianderstem]

He is. But strangely, Bono has some of his finest voice moments when he's not with his band.

[last unicorn]

That's one great tune and great singing by Bono.

He should do an album with sailor songs.
