Holy Joe Appreciation Thread

[namkcuR]

This B-Side from the 1997 single 'Discotheque', is really great. I can't get enough of it. I must have listened to it fifteen times today. It's really very catchy and has a kickass guitar riff.

Just a great, underrated song.

"Totally messed up in everybody's life\closer than ever to everybody's wife\yeah"

Yeah, I love that line the best. It is, indeed, a totally underrated song. Which mix are you listening to, the Garage Mix or the Guilty Mix?

 

[Siren]

I the guilty mix!!

 

[angel_28]

I love that song it really is under rated...its a fun little song..i love the version they played in K-mart..for tour announcement of Popmart...hehe

 

[ImOuttaControl]

Awesome song. I listened to this a lot in my big time party phase and realized it's a real mindf*ck when you've had too much to drink. (The Garage Mix)

 

[typhoon]

The Garage Mix is awesome. The Guilty Mix is creepy.

 

[discothequeLP]

the live version at the Popmart Announcement in KMart is the BEST! it's so fuckin bad ass and cool. just plain cool. no other way to say it.

 

[bedouin fire]

love it. it's an offense that this song is not on the b-sides from the best of 90-00.

 

[Aardvark747]

Love it! Not sure off the top of my head, which mix is which! But it's the first one on the Discotheque single I always listen to!

 

[Zooropean103]

One of my favourite b-sides! But most b-sides from Pop era rocks (Big Girls Are Best, I'm Not Your Baby). I'm so happy that they played it live at least once.

An appreciation thread for U2's worst B-side ever (rightfully omitted from the Best Of 1990-2000 B-sides) and U2's worst single live song performance (K-Mart Press Conference circa 1997)? This is getting out of hand.

Come on guys, enough with the sarcasm and tongue-in-cheek otherwise some people might take this thread seriously and actually believe Holy Joe has some substance in it.

Cheers,
