^ Is the singing so horrible?

Could someone post a link for those who are not members?

 

[SamuelSmeloc]

Is the new video THAT bad?

 

[Caleb8844]

Can anyone post a link for non members? Something like http//www.media.u2/flash/highlights/(video name).swf

 

[Registered Dude]

not sure how to post the link, the video is called 'till your well runs dry'. google tells me peter tosh sings this.

wonderful singing, great harmonies. listen to edge's falsetto harmony, pretty stuff. singing like a bird.

Hate to read into this too much but can there be any significance in the title as it pertains to the new album? IOW, that they had hit a "songwriting vein" and maybe it has finally run dry and its time to move on???? I haven't heard the song, so my inference could be WAY OFF.

It was just a thought.

I thought this too when I first watched the video.
If we can take anything from this though, it's that these guys are in a great place musically. The video appears to be an off-the-cuff rendition, they are singing around lunch or supper. The vocals are soulful, gospel like, and spot on. Eno in particular sounds great. Let's remind ourselves that Eno and Lanois are featured as musicians on this album. This clip shows that we're in for some great singing, real raw emotion.

[SamuelSmeloc]

Thank you for the links, guys.

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

post the link!!!

Actually it should be "can you please post the link and thank you" instead of post the link!!! and you should have looked at the last two posts before yours which had the link!

So demanding!

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

Thank you for the links, guys.

[JOFO]

Isn't that an old blues song?

Isn't that an old blues song?

yeah it is i believe so nothing new but nice voices! I hope next clip is of them singing a new song hehehe

 

[BEAL]

sorry, link was posted as I was typing up my statement.

Nothing really significant to this message. I really think U2 likes fucking with us though

I don't think we can really dig too deep into this, other than getting to see Brian sing for us.

 

[last unicorn]

Thanks for the link.

 

[SamuelSmeloc]

Yes, amazing stuff!

 

[last unicorn]

This clip!

They're not bad at singing, but Brian's face is priceless.

 

[lazarus]

Wow, they sure know how to say "grace" before meals in style there at the studio.

 

[purpleoscar]

The video makes me hungry.

*goes right back to drinking chardonnay and eating veal*

That's NLOTH's recording sessions in a nutshell right there.

pelligrino > evian.

 

[BoyOnTheHorizon]

Another useless crap video!

While we are wating for all this long for the new album, all they can give us is this????

The last video was so interesting that i had great expectations for this next one

What a 2 minute waste of my time

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

sweet...

 

[mama cass]

San Pellegrino? that's owned by Nestle isn't it?

 

[U2girl]

U2 does the blues again.

 

[lazarus]

"Til the Well Runs Dry" sounds like a perfect encapsulation of their recording strategy this time around.

 

[LemonMelon]

U2 does the blues again.

Actually, Till Your Well Runs Dry was written by Peter Tosh, a reggae musician.
