A week or two ago, there was a dubious new poster who claimed to have a copy of WITS, but didn't want to share it. He/she claimed that it was a mix of two beach clips. Since the poster was brand new to the forum & seemed to only be provoking us all, we labeled him a troll. That label may have been right...but listen to this:
Listen to WITS at 2:50-2:60. This is the
I know I hurt you and I made you cry
did everything but murder you and I
It sounds an awful lot like the chorus from beachclip 403/Thank You to me... It's only those two lines--nowhere else in the song does 403 seem to sneak in.
What's interesting is that if you listen to 400, the beachclip version of WITS, Bono sings this part differently (besides apparently different lyrics)----and it doesn't have the 403 quality to it. In 400, you can hear this part start at 2:43 for the first line, and then the second line starts around 2:50. That second line goes up at the end--while it goes down in the same section of WITS or in 403/Thank You.
