    I miss Zoo TV era U2...

    Oh, definitely. In fact, it would just be disturbing. Hence, I wouldn't want them to redo what's been done.

    I miss Zoo TV era U2...

    I feel the exact same way. It's not that the 00's era is bad, it's just missing a certain "oomph", a certain sexiness, a certain playfulness and a certain willingness to be daring in the face of the world. I wouldn't want them to replicate Zoo TV again, but I miss the energy and the entire vibe...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Good research! It's funny as Chalke Circle's "This Mourning" was another one of my mystery songs from a long time ago. Alas, I'm still searching to solve this "When I left you..." mystery song. I think I should look into developing a little Youtube video of the song... or maybe I'll just get...

    Coldplay - Viva La Vida - ongoing discussion

    Yes, but that's the problem when you only show up every 6 months, 2 years, or 3 years. ;)

    Coldplay - Viva La Vida - ongoing discussion

    Hello, hello... old time interference user here who likes to show up every, oh... I don't know... 6 months? 2 years? 3 years? or so.... hello! :wave: Just for context, I've been a die hard U2 fan since I was 12 (right at the height of the Zoo TV tour)... and strangely, while I was never...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Good idea, although since that song/band was nowhere near Top 20... I think we need some real radio playlists from 1993 if we're going to make some headway... blah! :der:

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Awesome! I was hoping to stumble across something like this... I'll read through this and see what I find! Edit: Whoa... what a trip down memory lane. Truganini by Midnight Oil? Mr. Wendell by Arrested Development? Sheesh! :D

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    YES!!! :love: That song was my first exposure to David Bowie, hahaha! You know exactly the era... as well... those were the songs that would have been played on that station then. So it kind of gives us a good idea of what bands could possibly have been aired back then. I mean, this was...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    It's from Vancouver, BC, Canada - the third largest city in Canada. The radio station at the time was called Z95.3 FM which was a top 40 radio station which featured rock/pop. At the time that I recorded it, the biggest hits on the radio were Tasmin Archer's "Sleeping Satellite", New Order's...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    The post where I have the link to the mystery song is not locked. If you go to Mindless Banter, it should be the only thing you see.

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Thanks Bonochick... Okay, for all who want to hear this mystery song, just send me a private message and I'll send you the link. when I first posted this song on Interference back in 2002, it produced 11 pages worth of discussions and the more people heard the song, the more puzzled we all...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Fair enough... Suggestions on how others can hear this song clip legally? My aim was to post a streaming media link so others could hear it, not necessarily download it. Another idea is to search up my Livejournal account (user: neverletmedown) or my flickr account (user: robynobotica)...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Tell me about it! You're not the one who's been looking for it for over 15 years? ;) BTW - I found my old posting from a LONG time ago: http://forum.interference.com/f288/can-you-id-song-59178.html Also... it's a bit funny about David Usher of Moist, as during the summer of 1993, the local...

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Strange... just add a dot mp3 to the end of it and it will work. *link removed by Bonochick* If that doesn't work, I tried uploading it to the site you recommended: *link removed by Bonochick*

    The 15 year mystery... the U2-sound-a-like

    Funny enough, I posted this a long time ago on Interference and it brought up some lovely discussions, but nobody was able to solve this crazy mystery. So the story goes :) In 1993 I recorded a song which, at the time, I thought instinctively was a new U2 song (Achtung/Zooropa-era). Hey, I...

    "The records are boring"

    I remember an interview, from the early 90's... perhaps it was the mid-90's. Bono, post-Zooropa, with his scruffy chin and blue glasses explaining that people aren't buying rock albums anymore because "the records are boring". I taped that interview on an old video cassette, now stacked...

    Can *YOU* ID this song?

    Alright... but excuse my ignorance, but who exactly is "Answer Guy"? :huh:

    Can *YOU* ID this song?

    It could be, but you honestly have to ask yourself.... when was the last time a U2 tribute band recorded an album that made it to mainstream radio? And if such a U2 tribute band existed, wouldn't a million U2 die hard fans know them by now? ;)

    Can *YOU* ID this song?

    One note: There's also a hammond-oregon sounding thing being played in the background during the verse and final ending... that's *not* a U2 instrument...

    You know, I wouldn't doubt that. :wink:

    Can *YOU* ID this song?

    And yes.... chances are I'll buy the song... :wink: You do realise you're the first to actually admit KNOWING the song?! Everyone else I've talked to puts up a "Oh yeah.... I know that band... that's... U2." lol...
