Lady With the Spinning Head

[elevatedmole]

Does anyone know what this song is about? I can't seem to think of anything -- any theories, anyone?

"Very strange looking object you have at the end of your stick.." - Bono

"Bono looks too intense for me." - Rollercoaster Tycoon park guest

"I was drunk, high on him, a shrinking, shadowboxing dwarf following in his foosteps...badly...STARSTRUCK.." - Bono, on meeting Frank Sinatra for the first time

"Bono? Bono is going to tie ropes around my neck? Wait a minute.." - Edge, when shooting the 'Numb' video

I've heard that the lady with the spinning head is in reference to a roulette wheel. It makes sense considering the lines "She's got the rent / She put me in the black" and "lady luck again."

Hmm.. nice theory! Thanks for replying

It does actually make quite a bit of sense.

"You must not look down on someone just 'cos they are 14 years old. When I was that age I listened to the music of John Lennon and it changed my way of seeing things, so I'm just glad that 14 year olds are coming to see U2 rather than group X." - Bono, 1988
