Please single mix or album version?

getupoffurknees · 04-08-2006, 01:41 PM

Who likes the Please single mix better than the album (Pop) version. Who likes the Album (Pop) version better than the single mix version?

Personally i like the single much better!

I'm probably in the minority on this one but I like the POP version better. The only thing I like about the single version better is the guitar solo.

I'm with you Gherman. The single mix just rubs me the wrong way for some reason.

This is like ask who was the better soccer player of the world , or basketball mates , of course it's the single , it's guitar driven , just like live.

CMIS · 04-08-2006, 03:01 PM

I love the solo

J_NP · 04-08-2006, 03:04 PM

Besides that avatar of getupoffurknees , the single of please , the one that haves PopHeart in it , it's u2s best single.

JMScoopy · 04-08-2006, 03:07 PM

yeah, i like the single version much better

annie_vox · 04-08-2006, 03:12 PM

The single but just because of the guitar... and the video...

Miricale_Drug · 04-08-2006, 03:15 PM

the album version fits the place on the album. the single is better in isolation

mobvok · 04-08-2006, 03:23 PM

I like the vocal take on the album, and the music on the single version. Both are good versions, however.

U2girl · 04-08-2006, 03:41 PM

Single for me, one of the few times (next to maybe Walk on and All because of you) where they improved the album version.

hcbiggs2002 · 04-08-2006, 04:21 PM

I personally prefer the single mix namely coz it's similar to the one I saw U2 performing live at Helsinki's Olympic stadium in 1997! Oh the memories it stires when I hear that song!!!

When you guys talk about the Single mix are you talking about the Popheart EP? Is the single mix the live version from Rotterdam? If there's a difference I have never heard the single mix then.

No. It's the mix used in the video.

I see. Was the video included on the best of 90-00 DVD? I have it but haven't watched it in a while and can't remember. I'll have to check it out when I get home if it's on there to refresh my memory. Thanks namkcur

The PopHeart EP has 2 versions of Please as far as I know , the single one and live from rotterdam , both are just awesome.
