Pleba Girls Party:... Step in my caravan of love ...Mr lover keep it rockin ...

[VintagePunk]

Okay, I think that last song just about did me in, and it's time for bed.

Thanks for reading/listening along with me. I debated deleting the whole damned thing - seems like a terribly self indulgent thing to do while I'm bored, that no one else would give a rats ass about...and if you don't, I don't blame you. I'd be bored too.

But I was thinking...if I were having a U2 listening party, who would I like to listen/discuss with? And the answer was - you guys. I guess this is the next best thing.

Love you all...night.

Hey! What happened to DG??

Brother kicked me off as usual.

And my dogs woke me up, and I'm heading back to bed.

 

[VintagePunk]

DG!! Quick *hug* before bedtime...ignore the previous several pages. Weird PMSy mood. I'm a girl. I can use that excuse.

 

[WildHoney]

Sorry VP

I had a surprise visit from Jamie

 

[WildHoney]

Breathe in the sweet fire of love....the sweet, sweet fire of love...

Days on the run
Nights in hiding
Hoping that you were
The healing inside me

 

[WildHoney]

Bono and Maria McKee doing Sweet Jane.

I"m most familiar with Cowboy Junkies' version, but this one?

Standing on a corner
Suitcase in my hand
Guy comes up to me says, hey Bono
Wanna play with your band

 

[WildHoney]

An unreleased rarity from the War era.... Be There.

Be there my love




Just tell me where and when and i will

"I went in the studio in Dublin recently with them and did a song that Bono had written for me. I'd had it for five years and we finally got together and recorded it," he says. "It's called "Slow Dancing" - it's a great song. I don't know when it's gonna come out. They just gave it to me and said I could put it out anywhere, anyway, I wanted to. I was kind of hoping they'd put it out on their album - they sell more than I do." Cue, more laughter. "Might as well go for the big audience. They're great. All of them are great guys." Willie Nelson.

And I bring you the Willie and U2 version of Slow Dancing, studio version.

Scarlet eyes and a see-through heart
I saw it coming right from the start
She picked me up, but had me down on my knees
Just a' begging her, please...

[WildHoney]

Bet you're all sorry you left me alone now.

That's what you get for sleeping normal hours...or for those of you in the UK (Yes, I'm talking to you, Wild!!) having a life. Alfie and NI can't take up all that much time, can they?

But you'll have me for 6 days in September and maybe 4 in December

 

[WildHoney]

Ahhh....live version of Radar Love.

This song reminds me of a very good friend....strictly platonic. I miss him, wonder how he is. A great guy. He used to "sing" this all the time.

An awesome guy who was there for me through some really shiity times....this one's for you, Mike...sorry we lost touch. I miss you.

"when I get lonely and the longing is too much...she sends a comfort coming in from above...

 

[WildHoney]

Live Sweet Caroline.

c'mon...you all think it's cute too. Admit it.

 

[WildHoney]

OMG, I'm listening to this with headphones so as not to wake anyone up, and I caught myself singing the chorus of Sweet Caroline aloud.

visions of Sarah waking up thinking someone's trying to have there wicked way with her mum her mum

 

[WildHoney]

Heaven and Hell...another unreleased Snooky classic. Holy fuck, this makes me want to do really bad things....and again, he's shouting out studio directions!!!!!



"nothing feels like this before...
heaven and hell..
baby you're heaven and hell...
F (chord change)"

"The organ...just organ"


OMG

Can B give me an order? Just once?

And I won't even mention his organ.

Heaven & Hell

[WildHoney]

Is there anyone who can't listen to With or Without you without the "we'll shine like stars in the summer night..." part?

Just like it bugs me to hear Sometimes You Can't Make it on YOur Own without the "no regrets" part...I want to scream at the radio!! Arrrrrgh.

Me too

 

[WildHoney]

Okay, next up...U2's cover of Fortunate Son!! Studio version.

Particularly suited to today's political climate...and earlier this summer, when I saw 2/5 of the original CCR ( I was dragged there by my sister ) that was my favourite song.

Bono's voice is so husky and sexy in this one

 

[WildHoney]

Night and Day. Need I say more??

If anyone hasn't seen this video and you're a B girl - contact me.

Night and day
You are the one
Only you beneath the moon
And under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It's no matter, baby, where you are
I think of you
Night and day


And i do too Bono

 

[WildHoney]

Daydream Believer live - Edge on vocals.

This song is so sacchirine sweet it'll give you cavities just listening to it, but I love it anyway.

The best part of the Popmart gigs... singing along with Edge....


Cheer up, Sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.


Give's me goose bumps remembering it....

 

[WildHoney]

And while we're onto the sickening sweet covers portion of the show, why not Abba's Dancing Queen? With a special appearance by Bjorn and Benny.

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine ohh yaaa
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
Ooo.. see that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Wild's waving arms above here head swaying as Bono sings......(sang a bit at my first gig)

And who does this sound like???

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance

 

[greeneyedgirl]

Oh, She sings too.........

 

[greeneyedgirl]

Wild, are you running this thread this morning?

 

[bono_gal]

Looks like it GG!

 

[WildHoney]

An unreleased rarity from the War era.... Be There.

I was listening to this song and these lyrics

Ah, she whispered, she said 'I need you now')
(Ah, she said 'don't worry, please me now')
You don't have to worry, have to worry
If I fall apart
You don't have to wear strings
Or do those things
You're enough in my heart
