vertigo by far

though none of the live versions have the bridge part of the album version that i love so much

We need to get that Toronto IV version with the Relax snippet. I´m starting to get desperate.

ANYBODY????!!!!

i guess the concert is out there, but no one's sharing as of yet. i don't even care about the whole show, i just want to hear that song, lol!

 

[Zoots]

This is a love song???????? instead of Boomchas?

Laaaaaaaame!

Album version is the best.

Half to give it to Vertigo version - it just rocks me. Even if you're not a fan of Pop, you can't help to like this super rocking song.

It's right behind A Sort of Homecoming for U2 songs that I'd kill to hear live.

Vertigo Discotheque is a great return of a song with amazing potential, but it has more false starts than Muse's Take a Bow. It never reaches that live level that a U2 hit should reach.

They need to work on the arrangement and take it to the stratosphere next tour. The dreamy-sounding bridges are great from last tour, but they need to cut those down - you can't have a song go slow/fast/slow/fast/slow unless you're Lou Reed and the song is Heroine.

Vertigo Discotheque is almost as basstastic as Do You Feel Loved

 

[Blue Room]

Vertigo (although I dont think any of them are drastically different, better or worse).

It is suprising they didnt do it more than twice. They were clearly looking at making it at least a partial staple by the amount of time they spent working on it. I think Edge just didnt feel like doing it after they had worked with it for awhile.

discotheque from toronto 9/17 was one of the greatest things since sliced bread.

so awesome

really a shame they only played it twice. maybe they'll bring this arrangement back next tour? doubt it but you never know

 

[fandangamoq]

anyone have audio of the Elevation version? I've never heard it so I can't compare....

But I enjoy the Vertigo version a bit better....if they'd given it a chance it would have been fantastic....when they kick into "LET GO!!!", the drums drive like mad and the lights go like nuts (the arena looks like a Christmas tree!)....unbelievable. I didn't get the same grandiose feel out of the little b-stage Popmart version of it, although I love the Life During Wartime snippet.

It would have been amazing with the outdoor setup.
