Did anyone catch this?

Sorry if it's been discussed already but I doubt it has. Today I was listening to Rock 101.1 Vancouver at around 9:30 when they were playing GOYB and at the end of the song the DJs started talking about U2 and all the sudden a new song started playing in the background and they were like STOP STOP STOP...... and then they started loughing "oh that was weired". This song played for maybe 4-5 seconds and sounded like a very cool and very different version of GOYB but was diff a U2 song. Probably a remix of GOYB from the single and they accidently started playing it? I can't say anything else because it was so short and all of the sudden but it was certainly U2 and perhaps a super cool remix of GOYB. They they continued talking about U2 for a couple of minutes after that!

Perhaps you could email them? I would bet it's either the GOYB remix or NLOTH from the CD single.

 

[Amiarockstar]

I certainly wish I had caught it!

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

Yeah good idea I will e-mail them tonight after work maybe we get some tidbit about it It sounded a lot like GOYB but different sounds.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

So it was like Get On Your Boots...only different?

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

You know the hip-hopish parts of GOYB IE " the future needs a kiss... etc etc it sounded like that but the instruments were different. It's hard to explain because it happened so fast and wasn't expecting it.

 

[LemonMelon]

or NLOTH from the CD single.

For our sake, we better hope it's not this.

 

[PowerSurge]

Maybe it was another new track off of Chinese Democracy

 

[HisFlyness]

I just emailed my local classic rock station...I got an in with them, let's see if they respond.

 

[HisFlyness]

And...fast reply. He says it's just the song on the single. I might try up our local Clearchannel "alternative/emo/acoustic" station...

Maybe it's the more strait-forward rockin' beachclip version.

Maybe it's the more strait-forward rockin' beachclip version.

uh, what? the only reason you think of the beach clip version as more straight forward/rocking is because you can fill in the gaps of the audio you can't hear with your own imagination. some of the lyrics were moved (i.e. the submarine/gasoline line was moved to the second verse) but thats about it.

The drums are very different.

 

[Rosebud]

Ah Rock 101.1

One of my fav stations!

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

maybe it was the next song qued up on the playlist that they accidently started too early and had nothing to do with u2.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Eh, maybe just a GOYB remix. If it sounds similar to GOYB.

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

It sounded similar and U2ish wheather it was or not thats another story when I get home I will e-mail them and find out. But yes it could have been just another song and because it was so quick it may have sounded like U2 I am still thinking it was a remix of GOYB from the single CD.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

How cool would it be if it was one of the other songs from the album.

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

well thats what I thought (well not another song from the album but from the single) judging by the DJ'S reaction "stop stop" it was something he did not want anyone to hear!

 

[Vlad n U 2]

It could've been top secret and someone deliberately played it.

Have you sent a message to them yet?

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

no not yet just got back home from a crazzy day at work garrrr.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Oh well, hope you can tell us the result of the email.

 

[shart1780]

Ask him if he has the ambient version of NLOTH on there.
