War Child
Wow!
I guess I had my head in the sand when this happened in late 2003 (or maybe it didn't get much press in the US, not sure which) but who caught Bono and Edge at this concert??
Comprised in four clips on youtube:
"American Prayer" with Beyonce and Dave Stewart-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKXyBjCpXAM&feature=related
"Long Walk to Freedom" (last song ever written by Joe Strummer)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7l8bnxSv74&feature=related
"One" with a South African Gospel Choir
"Unchained Melody" snippet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riVk1HiklVk&feature=related
"Amandla" (by Dave Stewart) w/ DS, Beyonce, Anastacia (never heard of her but she can sing)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SWaJwzDGEg&feature=related
If you saw this and disliked it, please resist the temptation to rag on it and just go to the next thread. (thanks!) I've never heard this set mentioned here, but I know many interferencers dislike the collab. w/ Mary J, and this sound bears some resemblance to that... anyway, trying not to make assumptions.
Anyone heard "Long Walk to Freedom" before? I'm wondering if Bono co-wrote it with Strummer or if it is Strummer's song. Incredible performance.
And though my opinion of Bono singing American Prayer on his own is "meh", I love this version with Beyonce singing harmony.
in-frikkin-credible set!!!
