If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
that was crazy shit on the tube :hyper: i saw it at a restaurant without sound and i couldnt believe how cool it looked. i think they took footage from the desert shoot and manipulated it, cus it has the circular camera thing goin on like they described for the actual video.
 
I started screaming and dancing around the living room. We've all gone so long without seeing them on TV! It was great! They were better than any young band out there. Great job U2!:up:
And Bono was looking pretty fine as well...:drool:
 
I saw it on MTV during the Real World. Not bad. And yes, I admit that I watched the Real World:madspit: teehee
 
Love the two-minute version on the iTunes Music Store as well. If the full song were released as a video, it would be in the top ten.

On another note, before everyone starts yelling "sellout," U2 is a band that makes music that happens to be on sale at iTunes. They're promoting a single. They're not selling Toyotas or Budweiser or machines that kill kittens, so go easy.
 
Thanks for the links, everyone! That ad rocks hardcore. I can't wait to see it on tv.
 
I saw it on the i tunes site a bunch of times, but it is different catching on TV by surprise, as I did during the yankees game. What an ad. The sellout notion is ridiculous. :down:
 
That's it!!! I'm quitting the second job so I can watch more TV & maybe catch this ad that everyone's so excited about!!

And if that doesn't work, I'll quit my day job too & stay home to watch TV ALL DAY LONG!!!

(Good grief - I don't think I'll make it until Spring & the new tour!)
:crazy:
 
If anyone wants the 2 min vid I'll be on aim for about an hour.

Nah, I wasn't there. I just collected all the evidence, put my brilliant mind to work and came to that conclusion. In other words, I'm guessing.:wink:

Still, I think it's a very educated guess. In fact, if I turn out to be wrong, I promise to go out and buy a Maroon 5 CD to punish myself.:huh:

And if I'm wrong I'll listen to the best of Shakin' Stevens on repeat at 45rpm.
