[shaun vox]

------------------
"BONO'S PRAYER HEAVENS AIR"

ROCK, ROCK, ROCK, ROCK, ROCK&ROLL HIGH SCHOOL.
THE RAMONES
i dont want to be a pinhead no more.

 

[U2002revolution!]

oh crap man! i thought you had the lyrics and were going to post them ...bummer!

------------------
' I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name. . .'
.:. U2: Rock's Unbreakable Heart!

Love is...cold steel/Fingers too numb to feel/Squeeze the handle/Blow out the candle
Love is blindness.../A little death/Without mourning/No call/And no warning...

I dreamed of different times, and tried to find my way
Ooooh all the darkest lies, cloud my world today
I'm not unbreakable, although I might pretend
It's not unthinkable that I could feel again

[Thanks Coach P]

....i have a long sig just to piss you off!...

some of the lyrics to the song were posted in the first thread about the song when it was heard that mtv aired part of the video at some thing.

------------------
The more of these I drink the more Bono makes sense.. - Bean from the KROQ Breakfast with U2.

Some of the lyrics were posted by Ignorland in another thread. Here's his post:

"The vocals are interesting: they're separated into two parts. On one part, Bono sings basically from the perspective of a couple just stepping onto the NY docks ("You've gotta live with your dreams; don't make them so hard.") This part of the song is really smooth and graceful.

On the other layered vocal section, Bono chants rather harshly "The hands that pulled, the hands that pushed, the hands that beat, the hands that fought, the hands that ripped..." etc.

Makes for a rather nice juxtaposition."

it's certainly not lyrics but is some info i had never seen before, who knows if it's true.

from radiocrow.com
New U2 due: U2's title track to Martin Scorsese's The Gangs of New York, will be titled "The Hands That Built America," includes a reference to the New York skyline and the day that "innocence died."

well it's not too fascinating. if this has already been posted, i must have missed it, but i'm not going to apologize

Apologize for that remark!

(name that Simpsons episode

)

?

 

[sulawesigirl4]

silly boy, it was the U2 episode! Marge is trying to get Homer to apologize to the garbage men and Homer says that only losers apologize. Then Lisa (or Bart?) say that THEY always have to apologize, and Homer replies, "Yeah, but I'm always secretly disappointed when you do."

Homer: Apologize for that remark!
Bart: No way, man!
Homer: That a boy!

 

[kobayashi]

ahhhh, right you are

i should really get back on messenger soon...

 

[Flaming Friar Sr]
