Live 8 DVD
I just got the Live 8 DVD for Christmas and was saddened to see 'Unchained Melody' after 'One' was cut off

When Chris Martin tried to segue 'Rockin all over the world' into one of their songs it was so cringeworthy

I'm not comparing U2 to Coldplay
I'm just talking about my favorite Live 8 moment so far that just has to do with me laughing at Chris Martin ![]() |

I have it, and its incredible how they have edited the thing, not tven the "ehen in london its 2 in the afternoon, we welcome the world to LIVE 8"... or the apoteosic entry of Macca and U2...
and if you recorded the show, you can clearly see that some takes in the DVD were not the originals, also the sound is changed... like in Bon Jovi's LIVING ON A PRAYER, when it happened live, the loudest crowd readction was in that song: the OH, LIVING ON A PRAYER were deafening.. and in the DVD, they were rturned down or at least they increased the ritchie/bryan vocals.. |

no... it starts with that "world" thing where you go to london, then some aerial shots and sudenly they start playing... I thought that was the intro, then it happened... "U2 & Paul McCartney" appears and I'm like

I want to get this, as I didn't get to see much of it, it started at 1am here and I was alseep.
I think I might avoid Elton John and Pete Doherty's version of "Children of the Revolution" though ![]() |

![]() The only performance worth watching again and again on that DVD is Pink Floyd's. It gives me chills. Roger Waters and Dave Gilmour occupying the same stage for the first time since 1981. ![]() |

![]() Some sound editing is just natural for a DVD release so thats fine with me. The backstage blah is nice to watch. Nice you know. The Floyd rehearsal is more interesting. Other than that, I can´t find the JoBurg set was released anywhere and that is a heavy mistake. |

I'm a fan of the entire dvd... yeah, it's missing some stuff. yeah, some things were edited... but as a record of the incredible performances that day... it's one of the best live dvds I've ever encountered... if only for sheer volume! lol
Some of my favorite bits are * Annie Lennox singing "Why" ![]() * Robbie William's entire set * The Scissor Sisters entire set ![]() * Coldplay and Richard Ashcroft doing "Bitter Sweet Symphony" ![]() * Snoop Dogg -- to me, THIS was comic relief ![]() ![]() And MacHat... you should definitely indulge in Pete and Elton doing "Children of the Revolution" ... it's so bad it's good! ![]()

Pete isn´t scary at all - he just sucks - actually you can see pretty much talent for ruining a great song on this DVD. I mean, everyone hated that performance because pete was so unprofessional.
Sure there are good performances. salut to Madonna´s dancers ![]() Coldplay and REM have always bored me and that´s not gonna change anytime soon. |
