I'd swear up and down that on one of the Vancouver streams I heard Bono prattle on about America in a way I thought was odd for Canada, but I am really really drunk so it might've just b een for Hands./

Who the fuck whants to hear Hands go hom e

I compared to my Van 2 video, and while Bono says the same intro, there are some differences, (Bono took a drink and didn't sing one part, that is in the RND video)

I think it's San Jose.

Yawn for Someone

Sorry to say, that's how I feel about that song.

 

[trevgreg]

Sorry to say, that's how I feel about that song.

Weren't some people using the title Snooze/Snore for Someone at some point too?

Weirdly enough, the song has grown on me a little bit over the past few weeks. I'm guessing the Fallon performance probably helped with that. Still probably my second-least favorite on SOI though.

 

[gump]

Is Axver ok?

 

[wolf]

So has "Song For Someone" been officially released? Will there be a video for the song?

Someone needs to create a DrunkAxver alter, you'll never have to proofread again.

At first I barely liked SFS, seemed like a rehash of Crazy Tonight album version, but our first baby, Evelyn Grace Crabtree was born in February and the song has taken on a whole new meaning & personal appreciation, especially when I'm on the road for work and away from home for days at a time. The delicate songs like Grace, SFS, Flower Child all work when I think about special women in my life.

I don't care for it as a choice as a single but I'll live.

 

[Numb1075]

all those titles are hysterical, but i'm partial to Bong for Someone.

 

[Hewson]

If Bono sings with a lisp we can have Thong For Someone.

P[leaeer is such a good song

Could have been me.

It's cool that you connected with a song that maybe at first didn't "ring" for you! This band has many of those types for me too.

 

[Hewson]

P[leaeer is such a good song

Especially when it leads into S#re@t/s.

He's going to feel like he was hit in the head with an ax.

Hey - Yoooo!

 

[U2WOJO]

What time does U2 come on stage and start the show?

 

[thavidesco]

Thde red nose version is a solid one, but a bit flat. I find Single For No One to be a Original Of The Species rewrite. But a worse one. I hope they will bring Species back one day.

[prbiker15]

What time does U2 come on stage and start the show?

After 8:00.

 

[brooklynmike]

I don't know if it's been been mentioned, but did anyone notice the EBTTRT and Discotheque riffs in Beat on the Brat?

I noticed them in Vancouver. Very subtle but that's what made it memorable

It's 100% Vancouver 2 - I remember thinking how weird it sounded first time through on the stream - just went back to the bootleg, and it is the same intro.

Confirmed rumor: Bono thinks they opened the tour at the Madison Square Gardens in Vancouver, USA

I suppose, if we are being technical - he said 'right across America' - he didn't say 'right across the USA' - Canada is also in North America. maybe he was speaking in generalities.
