Just begging the question because Bono obviously sang the chorus of "Movin' On Up" by Primal Scream at the end of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" yet it wasn't mentioned on U2tours.com...does a snippet have to technically have the band playing chords from that particular song? Does it need a certain length? Or do the people that run U2tours (or a lot of U2 fans) not know of that song (which is pretty doubtful)?
 
No, it should be counted. As soon as Axver sees this I'm sure he'll add.

A snippet is a piece of a lyric, or music from a different song, used in one of U2's own songs. As long as it's not the whole song, that'd be a cover, it's a snippet.

I'm not sure if Axver works on U2tours.com, he's solely at U2gigs.com, methinks...but for the record, it's at the end of the first show which I'm listening to right now and U2log also listed it as being at the end of "Still" on the second night as well.
