Question about Salome-the song.....

[u2loopy]

....not the Interferencer.

Anyway, as I listened to the song this morning I was wondering, is Edge the one actually singing "Shake it, shake it, shake it Salome"??? because it doesn't really sound like Bono to me. It sounds more like Edge. Anyone know???

Thanks.

That's actually Salome singing it...that's why they named the song after him.

"Hallelujah, Heaven's white rose,
The doors you open...I just can't close..."

lol, Bonochick

I don't know -- I've been wondering myself. It sounds higher than Bono's voice, more like Edge, so it definitely seems to be a possibility.

I thought it was a chorus with edge, bono, daniel lanois, and brian eno. or some combination of those 4... either way pretty sure there is more than one person singin that part.

I am sure that "Shake it shake it shake it" is Edge, though maybe Bono comes in on "Salome" or something.
