The Crystal Ballroom - Song Discussion

[Flying FuManchu]

I like the solo but there should be criticism geared toward the Mr Roboto voice put in the end by Danger Mouse. He must have really loved that lyric and wanted to get in on the action with the track and leave his mark! Dōmo arigatō, Mr. Roboto style!

I really like the songs on SOI, but after hearing this I truly wish this were the direction of the album. Wow.

I tend to put U2 in a different category. They're my band, the band I've listened to for 30 years, seen live 14 times, etc, but they're also nothing like what I currently listen to. My "current" folder on Spotify is mostly groove-heavy Indie pop. This is going in my current folder.

This song has a great, great solo. I love it since I first heard it on soundcloud - it has surfaced a few months ago along with other great guitar stuff. At that time I thought it was just fake leaks as it seems as a Santana solo.

I was really glad to hear this on an U2 album, and I'm now hoping that some of the most heavy guitar stuff leaked at that time could also be Edge... probably for Experience?

To sum up, I'm a fan of the guitar work Edge delivered on this album. Really balanced and ambitious work.

When did this leak months ago? Link?

Unfortunately it only lasted for 1 week or so, and I think no one downloaded this.

This link had the leak with the exact same solo we can listen in Crystal Ballroom: https://soundcloud.com/paul-simpsons/u2_electriclady_cd001_edge_gui

My comment on this leak at that time, in another forum, was:
"And what about this?
This sounds more like Santana, don't think this could be The Edge... anyway, hugely impressive"

 

[thavidesco]

Fake...

Wow. This could have been written by me.
Fan for 30 years, seen them 15 times, and my current listening is that as well.

I love TCB, and hope to hear more like this from them.
