They need to start making the ramps a bit wider or at the very least put up some guardrails like they do when little kids go bowling.:sexywink:

I was really excited when I saw this recording. But I have to say I much prefer the original. The instrumental part is so great and fitting. This new version makes the song quite boring. I hope that's why it wasn't played. I'd LOVE to see it return to live shows, but in its original version.
 
I know that Edge's main riff is just being played on a loop. HOWEVER, that rhythm guitar does not sound like Edge. It's too messy and clumsy, it sounds like Bono playing. But Bono didn't play guitar any on the I&E Tour. Perhaps he tried, and it wasn't working out? It's definitely Bono singing. The reason he's holding back his voice is because he always holds back his voice during rehearsals.
 
The guitar just doesn't seem to fit at many points of the song. Synths near the end had some potential. Then again maybe this recording was the first time they'd tried to play it properly in 10+ years, so it's hard to be too critical. I really hope one day it'll be played again.

(thanks to nuno for recording)

No, sorry. Was posting before sleep.

I think edge has been playing around with this arrangement for a while, which first showed up on this video.

That guitar loop in the sound check is the exact same.

That's all

I remember thinking when Edge played it solo for that guy, that it didn't really work. Especially during the ha la la la de day parts. I just want them to bring back the ZOO TV version, that'd be great. This version... nay.
