I'm drukn and we're listeing to TJT, I just hit IGC, so you should jion us after there, then it' on to Zoorpa

 

[Axver]

What's up? Still doing indecent things with household objects?

ooh, is someone drunk? Is there listening party? Should I stop listening to Monty Python?

Ali!

We listened to all of Pop, now we're up to IGC in JT ( ), and then we're hitting Zooropa. It's a U2athon!

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I really like In God's Country. It has pretty cool lyrics, and nice music. I wish it were longer.

 

[coolian2]

I really don't think the video was that bad. Sure, it wasn't good, but have you guys seen ... pretty much every video they've done this decade? Much worse.

Name one.

 

[bono_212]

No. They come from the early sixties era when singles, not albums, were where it was at. So compilations are the way to go. Songs you'd want on a compilation include Apache (their signature song), Kon-Tiki, Shadoogie, Wonderful Land, and Quartermaster's Stores. I know I've used some of their tracks in DI; Kon-Tiki is in DI V, so see if you like that. If you dig that song, you'll dig the other ones I've named.

All right, I'll try to hit that up, Napster loves compilations, so I should be havle to find something

 

[Axver]

"Every day the dreamers die to see what's on the other side."

Love that lyric.

Also, Bono snippeting the first verse of IGC over the end of Watchtower at a couple of Lovetown gigs was FUCKING INTENSE.

 

[coolian2]

In God's Country is a great song.

It was one of the ones that helped me push on past the first half of the Joshua Tree.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Oh, and Bono is really hot in parts of the 'video' for this song, when he has his hair in a ponytail, and a hat on, and slight scruff. It's like JT Bono and Pop Bono had a baby.

 

[bono_212]

I don't know chass, I think IGC is perfect as it is. .. anymore lyrics might jut be asinine.

 

[Axver]

Name one.

Vertigo. SYCMIOYO. OOTS. And the worst U2 video EVER, US Stuck.

THat hat

 

[Axver]

Oh, fuck off, Trip Through Your Wires, with your stupid, cheesy, Southernified crappiness.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Naked flame
She stands with a naked flame
I stand with the sons of Cain
Burned by the fire of love
Burned by the fire of love
oooowhoooooa
oooowhoooooa

IGC was such a cool surprise at the end of Three Kings - I'd never paid much attention to it before that, but I love it.

And for the record, I wish they'd never released the RHMT video.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Oh, fuck off, Trip Through Your Wires, with your stupid, cheesy, Southernified crappiness.

Hush you, this song is fun!

OOTS maybe. The rest aren't completely laughable. They're not great, but they aren't "What the fuck are you doing?" bad.

I like the US Stuck video though. Better without the shithouse John Madden intro.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

like either version of stuck? i guess i just don't get how powerful being thrown out of a van repeatedly can be

 

[bono_212]

Vertigo. SYCMIOYO. OOTS. And the worst U2 video EVER, US Stuck.

NOOOOOOO That video made me a U2 fanatic, because I LOVED U2 iSpy.


and TRRRRRIIIIPPPP!!! Possibly my favorite song on this album afgter Streets and RTsS

 

[coolian2]

IN THIS TOWN
IN THIS TOWN

 

[Axver]

Hush you, this song is fun!

No it's not, it's uncomfortably molesting my ears right now.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

*random yelps*

 

[Axver]

IN THIS TOWN
IN THIS TOWN

That would have made the studio version better, because at least it would feature lulz.

 

[coolian2]

*random yelps*

Yer-hew!

 

[Alisaura]

I like Trip. I like the bassline. It's just fun.

 

[U2MaNaIcWeIdO]

No it's not, it's uncomfortably molesting my ears right now.

Wanna trade? I've never heard the song before.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

No it's not, it's uncomfortably molesting my ears right now.

It's actually my second most played track on The Joshua Tree




OOH the watergasm!


No more water in the well
No more water
WATER

 

[Alisaura]

Hush you, this song is fun!

(15ed!)

 

[bono_212]

Naked flame
She stands with a naked flame
I stand with the sons of Cain
Burned by the fire of love
Burned by the fire of love
oooowhoooooa
oooowhoooooa

u2 = Heralds of the anti-christ

 

[coolian2]

That would have made the studio version better, because at least it would feature lulz.

I can't hear it without inserting IN THIS TOWN throughout.

 

[Axver]

Trip was a good opportunity to do a food run.

I simply cannot believe HEARTLAND, MOTHERFUCKING HEARTLAND!, was cut from the album to make way for this stupidity. If they desperately needed something fun, SPANISH EYES.

And oooh, here we go, One Tree Hill.
