"NUMB"...some confusion

[ALass4Larry]

Who sings lead? Who is singing backup?

 

[ZooStation_Fly]

Edge lead, bono and larry are backing up

 

[BANZAI]

In the Numb version from the Best of 1990-2000 The Edge sings lead, Bono and Larry sing backup, and Adam 'talks' ('I feel numb')

Watch ZooTV in Sydney and you'll see how it works live

Ugh, what a terrible live song.

Ugh, what a terrible live song.

At least they gave it the ol' "college try"!!!

Ugh, what a terrible live song.

Although I don't really recall which , sydney or dublin , Edge's sound seems to be pre-recorded .... The sydney perfomance is pretty cool ..... All the cameras on Edge and all , and then Larry comes in to help . Larry's drummin on it is great , really brilliant , what makes the perfomance shine

 

[An Cat Gav]

I think it's Larry who says " I feel numb", whoever says it has a Dublin accent, something that Adam does not possess.

That is Larry who talks. It is on the original too but you have to have headphones on to hear it.

 

[An Cat Gav]

On the soul assasins remix of numb, gimme some dignity mix, you can clearly hear that its Larry.

Ugh, what a terrible live song.

it's definitely not been a highlight lol

Yeah. Remember when they performed it live during the Vertigo tour? Zowie. And going right from there to "Viva Davidoff" was a real low-light.

Thank goodness they performed "4th of July" to make up for it.

what show do you mean?? I'm nto sure if I'm following you here

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

There's not much to follow on that...he was kidding.

 

[Lancemc]

I'd much rather go to a show and hear a great song that they play every show than a lackluster performance of a rarity.

What are you talking about? They played that whole section on February 29th, 2003, in their tour of East Rekjavick.
