Shuttlecock XIV: Bono the Vampire Slayer

[Axver]

Can someone update on me whether that redhill thread is worth looking at? Is the clip of U2 discussing it worth watching? Or do they really not care?

You might as well read it now, because if there's another Interference Thread Survivor it's going to be in the mix.

I listened back on a few different devices. It sounds like modern days Bono is singing into the chorus but yeah it cuts off.

 

[gvox]

Where is redhillwhiningclown now anyways

 

[cobl04]

Maybe this new version will fix the way 1987 Bono sings the "I lose myself" line in the second verse. "I luzshz myself"

 

[lazarus]

I luge myself?

 

[kabigon]

And One Tree Hill's "only scars carved into stone on the face of deeurrthh"

 

[mikal]

What happened to the beauty and sodomy

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

If you want to kiss this guy, you better learn how to kneel

 

[corianderstem]

And One Tree Hill's "only scars carved into stone on the face of deeurrthh"

Or how he doesn't believe in fancy roses.

 

[Mack_Again]

Edge should pull out that weird guitar with rubber necks just for One Tree Hill.

 

[gvox]

Or how he doesn't believe in fancy roses.

Panty hoses?

Ha!

I distinctly remember listening to that song for so long, trying to figure it out. "Pancy roses? Fancy roses?" When I learned the real lyric, I listened to it again and can't figure out how he thinks that word coming out of his mouth is "painted."

If I screw that line up next time I'm blaming you and spamming your fb or some shit

Maybe he will wreck Streets, because we all secretly want it to be "I'm gonna dance, dance, dance in the dirty rain".

Guns 'n' Roses

 

[cobl04]

I was teething on roses, I was in guns 'n' noses, ah ah ah ah ah ahhhahhhh

 

[BoMac]

I'll never not hear this from now on.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

You're welcome

 

[Hewson]

Taken with poetic license from Hendrix' Purple Haze, "'scuse me while I kiss this guy"

 

[kabigon]

Is there a time to turn to makeup
Is there a time to be a beauty queen

 

[corianderstem]

Ha ha haaa, that's what I always thought it was as well.

In fact I read your post and thought "... but that's the right lyric, isn't it?"

 

[martha]

It's not?

 

[Hewson]

Pretty sure its turn to Mecca.

 

[kabigon]

It is.

 

[Hewson]

should have been "turn to Macca"

 

[martha]

Pretty sure its turn to Mecca.

Ok, now I know that I knew that.

 

[DaveC]

i thought for the longest time it was "is there a time to turn to liquor"

 

[Danny Boy]

is there a time to turn to liquor

There is.

Spoiler

As mentioned in the other place. The U2 Facebook page posted a clip of In God's Country filmed during the Streets video shoot. That's the stuff that needs to come out of the vaults to see the light of day. I've only seen bad quality bootleg footage filmed by camcorder over the years of the other songs performed that day.

The audio sounds like IGC from R&H though...
