He might, BUT I DEF. heard some bono and co. in there

Yeah, there is, especially on See You (On The Other Side), which is the kind of weepy ballad U2 is so brilliant at and regularly pull off with great skill. Maybe a lil on Rain too.

 

[Screwtape2]

But the big question is, do we sound like U2?

I don't think you do at all. You certainly have some influences but I don't hear U2.

I can't remember at what point in time the thought crossed my mind, but it might have been during Rain when I thought you sounded a tad like Bono...not him, but the way he sings

My bra is full of freaking cornbread crumbs, and apparently I'm going to hell for sitting on some dead person's grave, and dammit I need to attack my boyfriend.

It's mostly just in the guitar tone sometimes. I don't hear U2 either.

I love Bono's vocals, and I've done _many_ U2 covers over the years, so that's not a long shot.

*shoves the last brownie in her mouth* I am breathing! *sprays crumbs*

What did you most like to cover?

If I had the booze, I would

 

[LemonMelon]

What did you most like to cover?

I liked taking the more obscure songs and putting a new slant on them.

• Your Blue Room
• Red Hill Mining Town
• Fast Cars
• Hallelujah, Here She Comes
• Flower Child

I find myself playing the folksier songs more often when I break out my guitar, honestly.

Cover EPAA and you'll be my hero

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

If I had the skills, I'd totally do a southern blues version of Mofo.

Pshh you're over 21 go to a store

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Like I have any money!

Next birthday I'm getting you a piggy bank

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I have a bank shaped like an orange bird (orange as in the FRUIT! don't ask), and it has all kinds of change in it, but I'm not going to go buy booze with a bank full of dimes and pennies

Oh please do and take a hidden camera with you. I NEED to see the casheir look like you as if you were a wino



Ok, so I know what songs are on my retro island list nw, but I can't figure out the order I want them in....so instead I just keep listening to it again and again in it's current order...this is not helping

That's a fine choose of songs.

LemonMelon, Conch just came on my iTunes. It was a sort of magical moment. Out of the blue it was so strikingly beautiful. It would be so great live as a centerpeice of a show.

Maybe someday, but not tonight.

I'm in the mood for something else tonight, and you know it.
