The unfortunate Triffids-induced decline of U2, eh?
The sad thing is, if they ever played a cover of any Triffids song, most people in the audience would just be like
Although, I can see it already:
Rob33: "OMG U2 have a new song, it's brilliant, it's called Wide Open Road!"
Axver: "It's a song by the Triffids, from the album Born Sandy Devotional. It's been around for almost as long as U2 have."
Rob33: "Well clearly they covered it cause U2 must have written it first! And anyway U2's version is better. Peterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, when did Bono last sing like that?"
Peterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr:
"At the beginning of the song Bono give it his all, and in the middle he hit the low F in 'Road' which he holds for 3 seconds, the last time he do that was on the ZooTV tour singing Bullet the Blue Sky 1993-5-14! This is the best Bono's voice sound since Vertigo tour 5th leg! Also at the end of the song he do a long scream which leads into WTSHNN which is lasts for 6 seconds, which he does not do for ZooTV or Lovetown!"
Axver: "It's a song by David McComb of the Triffids."
mofo82: "How can you say that when the lyrics are clearly that of Bono? Why do you keep lying to me? A well-regarded member of these forums telling me that a song that is clearly a U2 song was written by someone else, mods BAN HIM!"
