Palace and U2 addict, you've got mail.

Zooropa Man- oh yeah! The video that's been offered is great, but I'd like to see the announcer and Pop Muzik play.

 

[Palace_Hero]

[U2 addict]

Thanks mobvok! It would be cool to see the complete video with the intro.... Anyone have the complete video?

I was just wondering about the same thing.
Anyone?

If there ever will be A GREATEST HITS LIVE ALBUM,
this Please version has to be on it !!!

Incidentally, 1997 was also the last year that the MTV VMAs were any good. That year had some terrific performances and there was still some hipster buzz about the event. Compare that to the crapfest of the last few years.

Nobody in the crowd knew what the song was because by that time in the US the POP album had long been off the charts, everybody else played the hits U2s please was no hit and niether was anything else on Pop stateside outside of Discotheque.

It was one of the best performances in U2 history but will long since be forgotton under the other crap of the MTV awards.

 

[Yahweh]

U2s first TV performance in the US was the Please performance they did not play The Grammys before they played Beautiful Day on them as a full band.

Ok I meant 87, what's a year between friends? Anyway, they played something cos I remember they were already in the wings when they accepted one award.

i don't think they even performed at the 87 grammys.

 

[blueeyedgirl]

Well, in my version of reality, they did. And it fucking shat on 1997, 2007....

 

[phommel]

I'm still looking for an mp3 with this performance.

I lost all my mp3's because I had a hard disk crash, recently.

So, would someone be so kind to send me Please VMA MTV, 1997.
Another song I lost is North & South of the River, I mean the acoustic version for the Omagh Tribute.

You can make me very happy!! on

I have an mp3 of it, though it is of poor quality.

Edit: Sorry no not anymore, I purged it when I formatted my PC this afternoon.

 

[phommel]

Too bad, but thank you.

I had a really good quality, but it's gone

 

[Palace_Hero]

That sucks, I'd love a good quality version. I have the MTV DVD with the performance but no audio ripping software.

 

[sucker.punch]

I'd kill for 'Please' VMA's!
