FEZ-Being Born appreciation

[lemon_vr6]

After one full listen, my favorite song. None of the "big ones" have caught on yet.

 

[4U2Play]

It sounds fucking weird. That's a good sign.

 

[Axver]

I can't believe U2 recorded this. Excellent work too; it's very interesting and compelling.

 

[Sicy]

This song is weird but good.. still letting it sink in.

 

[lemon_vr6]

It scares me that I don't have opinions on Magnificent and Breathe.

 

[Sicy]

btw who is rapping in the background on this song?

 

[edgeplaytheblue]

still have to wait until this afternoon .. i refuse to listen to it with earphones / laptop

 

[Val]

It's brilliant! I am so in love with this album.

 

[ozeeko]

This song is heavenly. That's all i gotta say.

 

[neutral]

I really love this one, it's in my top 3 so far. Definitely a headphones song.

 

[Stryker395]

This is the type song I would expect to find on Zooropa or Pop....maybe it wouldn't even fit on those albums. It's in a category all it's own. Brilliant.

 

[Catman]

I think this song will become part of the "hidden-gem" collection of U2 material (that which shares space with the likes of "Hawkmoon269," "Slug," and "In a Little While" )

 

[4U2Play]

This would work well as the first encore number.

Use the "let me hear the sound" intro on the PA, then kick it in live

 

[bdogm]

Lemon-like, especially the vocals.

 

[clerks]

I hear THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE... in fact this whole album reminds me of other things that they've done and other bands... but that happens to me often.. Beautiful Day sounded like one of their earlier songs, but now I'm so used to it, I can't remember what it was...

 

[pitt_norton]

I get shivers of ecstacy when the choral vocals come in at 3.26

 

[gweeps]

So, FEZ is only slightly over a minute long?

 

[Sicy]

btw who is rapping in the background on this song?

Anyone? Beuller?

 

[Needle_Chill]

This song is mint. There's just so much happening, and the lyrics are to die for, although the melody is a bit clunky in places, BUT, this is about the sound.

 

[Needle_Chill]

Anyone? Beuller?

It's Joaquin Phoenix!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[AtomicBono]

it's very Zooropa/Passengers. the "Lights...flash past..." part really reminds me of the end of One Minute Warning in a good way I love the first part (Fez), and then I LOVE the verse to Being Born, though the chorus (well, sort of, there's not really a chorus persay) kinda took me by surprise, wasn't what I expected. But it's growing on me

what a strange song...

 

[last unicorn]

I join the party, simply because this is the song I was most doubtful about. I love it, it's so unexpected, surprising, love the singing.

 

[MMP]

Another U2 meets Pink Floyd song.
My second fav so far. It's like U2 on LSD.
And it's so "soundtrack". I it.

 

[jecofficial]

and the pink flyd song is....Sorrow!

 

[hanksta13]

Crazy song. I like the Fez better than being born......I think

 

[hanksta13]

it's joaquin phoenix!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Sicy]

Is it Wycleff????

Srlsy.

 

[vaz02]

Dancing Queen ?

 

[AtomicBono]

I get shivers of ecstacy when the choral vocals come in at 3.26

yes!!

 

[Peterrrrr]
