The FLY sounds so mean this time around...

[theu2fly]

Listen to the intro, Adam's bass is so powerful...

Edge's guitar is a whole another world...

If Bono could get the lyrics right, this song would be above the ZOOTV version.

 

[Numb1075]

haven't heard the bootlegs yet of The Fly, but I that song so damn much it hurts.

 

[broken toy]

Well, I for one felt the Elevation version crushed the Zoo TV version like a grape. And I saw five Zoo TV shows.

I'm glad they keep pushing this song; the intro now--especially Larry's drum break--is out of this world.

 

[God Part III]

I love it that Bono has begun to have that coughing, cruel laughter that he used as an intro to Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me during Popmart.

Swish!

I kinda thought that too...

The latest version of The Fly absolutely kicks. It really does. What an intro!!

 

[Aardvark747]

it IS sounding great - it rivals the last tour's effort for me!

 

[God Part III]

 

[Macfistowannabe]

Sorry, the only NEW Fly I've heard is opening night. I don't know how it gets any better than The Elevation Tour's version though... I'll have to hear it myself.

 

[u2wedge]

It kicks ass. Edge is ripping it up. I like that little funk jive he throws in there on occasion as well.

 

[discothequeLP]

Larry changed the drum beat and man, the new beat is so cool! sounds like a fucking jam session gone insane! Edge rips, as usual, and Bono's backup guitar is just downright dirty and great!

 

[mikal]

i must say, this is the best version of the fly ever. so much energy!

 

[tilen]

i just love it!!!So raw!I think it's better performed as last time round on Elevation!!Keep it going,Fly!

 

[Tyagu_Anaykus]

listen the second night on Anaheim

 

[djerdap]

Vertigo Fly is SIIIIIICK...
San Jose 2 rocks so hard: "The universe exploding cosa' one man's FUCKIN' lie!". Bono finally puts some emotion in the song.
I don't have to talk about Edge and Larry. Adam takes credit for a great bass in the intro.

 

[Muad'zin]

All versions are good. At first I thought it was to similar to the Zoo TV version but now it has grown on me and become a monster of its own right. This really is my all time fav from AB, then and now.

 

[blindinglights]

I love the vertigo tour version, and i think san jose 2 is the best one i've heard so far too, even better than anaheim 2 which is also awesome.

 

[fandangamoq]

funny that it didn't stand the test of time for the greatest hits album but its still one of their best live. It didn't make the album, but it's been on every setlist so far

Strange.
