ONE love, blood, life
Ok...tell me I am not crazy here.
I am focusing mainly on the line 'you ask me to enter but then you make me crawl and I can't be holding on to what you got..'
Has anyone noticed that, on the studio version and on the ZooTV versions as well as some versions here and there in 95-ish, when Bono sings 'be holding on', he sings like
I can't be ho old ing on
and it's a tighter vocal, while in practically every performance from Popmart to the present, he sings it more like
I can't be hoooooooooolding on
and it's a more soaring vocal. On the second version, the melody is actually altered a bit from it originally was(it is sung higher), the words 'holding on' are sung very different in 97-05 then they were 91-95. In the earlier versions, the beat/rhythm was more defined, I think.
Ok, I'm not doing a great job of explaining this.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about here?
