[Axver]

I'm game, Ax what's their 15th single?

Off the top of my head, I think The Unforgettable Fire.

 

[bono_212]

ishwilf - it'd be deep in the heart.

I'm doing it!

 

[Cin]

i don't mind if the lyrics are a little dodgy

I like Ca Plane Pour Moi and I have no idea what that's all about. Apparently he's the king of the divan

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I think the waterfall guitar part and middle 8 are the only parts of this song I like.

 

[bono_212]

Are you serious.

 

[Axver]

Oh that was a while ago. I kept saying that I didn't hear anything great about the bass and guitar in it, that I was talking about LATW, it was elMel I think and Ali that said POE was good too. But you wouldn't listen to me, and insisted on listening to it


And no, I refuse to believe that

Ooh, right.

And it's quite clearly describing a car bombing. The snippets Bono has used in the song make it clear.

 

[coolian2]

LIB is definitely about the Troubles.

 

[bono_212]

God the guitar in this song!

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I can't waaaaaaaaaaaaait any longeeeeeer
I can't waaaaaaaaaait til I'm strongeeeeeeer
I can't waaaait any looonger
To see what you see
When I look at the world

 

[Axver]

ishwilf - it'd be deep in the heart.

Did you skip the live IWF single from The Netherlands and the 40 single from Germany?

 

[coolian2]

Noo York.

It's not a patch on the live version, but isn't as bad as it's made out to be.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

"Tell me, tell me, what's wrong with me?"

Oh Bono, too many things to mention.

 

[coolian2]

Did you skip the live IWF single from The Netherlands and the 40 single from Germany?

KHAN!

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I could hear Eno's voice in that

 

[bono_man2002]

Eck. I have to reboot

BRB!

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

Did you skip the live IWF single from The Netherlands and the 40 single from Germany?

iwf yes, 40 no. i just went according to wikipedia.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

fucking New York

 

[bono_212]

Re: LIB: Huh.... well that makes some sense, but I'm not completely sold...

 

[Axver]

LIB is definitely about the Troubles.

Yeah, you don't snippet this in a song not about the Troubles: U2 September 1913 - U2 on tour

 

[bono_212]

Guys, In New York it gets hot, well into the 100s

I just noticed how odd it is that Bono used Fahrenheit

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Bono, talking =/= singing.

 

[Axver]

iwf yes, 40 no. i just went according to wikipedia.

Actually, we're both wrong. Pride was 15th. I forgot the OTHER live IWF single, the US one. I just checked U2Wanderer.

I think Wikipedia counts U2:3 as an EP rather than a single, hence your count.

 

[bono_212]

Bono, talking =/= singing.

But Edge talking does?

 

[Cin]

New York

 

[bono_212]

Does he say down to alphabet or alphaville?

 

[coolian2]

Hey Bono, referencing the Titanic in New York?

Genius.




No, wait. The word that means the opposite of that....

 

[Axver]

New York would be an awesome song if it had good lyrics. Ugh. We get it, Bono, you wank over the US every night. Stop it with the over-obvious crap.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Does he say down to alphabet or alphaville?

Alphaville, it's a part of lower Manhattan.

 

[coolian2]

Does he say down to alphabet or alphaville?

Alphaville. The Superthread's been there, I believe.

 

[Axver]

Does he say down to alphabet or alphaville?

Alphaville.

... then again, it's Bono.
