Bono's recent vocals have been ace

[LemonMelon]

I'm really liking what I've heard from Bono recently. Saints, Window, the recent boots... His voice is at its best in years.

Feel frrrrrrrrree too argue, but damn.

 

[Axver]

Yeah, I think he's sounding probably the best he's been since ZooTV. I love the way he's been holding "touch" in Beautiful Day on the fifth leg.

 

[Caroni]

I like his voice a lot, but those parts where he sings all "girly" I don´t like, I don´t know if you understand



And yes he is sounding good

Like on what songs?

 

[Caroni]

WHOOOO OOOO COBL

 

[Aygo]

"girly"???

Huh, looks like that was filmed from pretty near where I was that night. I think. I can't remember if I was around that position at Sydney II or Sydney III.

You mean falsetto? Like in the first part of the chorus on Window In the Skies?

I think his falsetto still fine. Not as good as it was back in the day, but still good.

Yeah... it is called falsetto Thank you

and like when he sings the chorus with in WITS

 

[BVS]

Falsetto is not "girly".

 

[Caroni]

Falsetto is not "girly".

maybe lack of a better word

 

[BVS]

Almost any singer worth their salt uses full voice and falsetto, so I'm just surprised a falsetto would bug you.

 

[doctorwho]

Bono's vocals have been great, but he does ramble on at the end of a song, doesn't he? Even when he's on the Grammies, songs just go on and on and on and on... Just end the frickin' song already Bono! Let us clap and cheer and then start the next one. Extra lyrics and such are great in the middle of the song at the right moment, but random scat singing at the end, eh...

maybe we are not talking about the same thing I told you .I can´t be bothered by his singing, otherwise I wouldn´t like U2

 

[Screwtape2]

Falsetto is not "girly".

Have you ever heard of Chris Martin?

 

[BVS]

Ever heard of Jeff Buckley?

 

[GibsonGirl]

Have you ever heard of Chris Martin?

Ever heard of Freddie Mercury?

Absolutely nothing wrong with falsetto.

 

[redhotswami]

Ever heard of Jeff Buckley?

 

[BrownEyedBoy]

Bono needs to start wearing some bootcut jeans.

 

[BVS]

I don't know why, but I found that funny.

 

[LemonMelon]

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[U2girl]

 

[coolian2]

I actually had a Zoo TV flashback/connection at Auckland 2. I can't bloody remember it now, but whatever he sang just took me right too a Zoo bootleg i've heard.

 

[Alisaura]

Yep, Bono sounds awesome at the moment.

As for girly singing, anyone heard that guy from Mercury Rev??

 

[Axver]

I don't think even the guy from Mercury Rev can really compete with the guy from Delays. I know a couple of people who initially refused to believe that the lead vocalist of Delays is actually male.

And, well, Geddy Lee (Rush) and Charlie Dominici (ex-Dream Theater). Need I say any more?

 

[cdisantis83]

Back in sixth grade, I was convinced that the lead singer from Rush was a woman.

Peterrrrr, where are you hiding?
