    Bad Sydney Morning Herald U2 Review

    U2 have lost their edge and should quietly fade away - Music - Entertainment I was incensed by this. Aussies & anyone else please respond by email to smh with your views on this article. This is one of the widest circulations in Australia & it's very unfair criticism IMO. AND this 2nd hand...

    U2 NLOTH Boxset

    The bars are on the clear plastic sleeve not on the cover. Most digital TV sets & DVD players in Australia can do PAL or NTSC.

    NLOTH 2 (song) General Discussion + lyrics

    It sounds like Bono is sometimes singing ever slightly off key in the verses of NLOTH 2... but perhaps he isn't actually. I'll explain...I think all the effects, Adam's undulating bassline & Edge's downward pitch bends are F#ing up my ears' initial key reference (if you know what I'm getting...

    Why is PopMart dissed?

    It was ironic that The Joshua Tree was a celebration of things American & Popmart visually was mocking American consumer society (like you say U2lunatic). I liked the Warhol touch with the art like lemons & arch & the Pop album cover.

    U2 vs Queen

    They were one of the greatest bands (a little hard to compare to U2 since they are from a decade before). I saw them around Radio Ga Ga era & they were as good as a U2 show. Brian was to harmoniser as Edge is to delay & the rhythm section of both groups are superb. I will say Freddie had a...

    why wasn't Miracle Drug a huge song?

    Instead, I thought that Crumbs' could've been a hit, because it has a hook musically & is a very topical subject matter. I agree about the comment that it shouln't have been track 2. That kills the energy of the album.

    Was Window in the Skies a "hit"?

    Window in the Skies is 5/4 time! My mother in-law died from a heart attack around the time it was a radio hit & it will always remind me of her.

    Will there be a song dedicated to the city of NEW ORLEANS?

    Yeah why do you need another song? The Saints Are Coming was the New Orleans song.

    ATUCLB may be close to being their last album

    The Beatles stopped touring for a few reasons like they could not hear themselves above screaming (1966), security eg. a bullet hole was found behind where Paul stood at a live concert & they were nearly lynched in The Phillipines. Also the 5th Beatle their manager died.

    He would've said that to promote crowd safety.

    I got the Popmart DVD!!!!! Screenshots, information!

    Red Rocks has a lot of streaking artefact in the daytime shots (maybe due to a wet camera lens?). I always wonder if they could digitally clean it up (would be a big job) or they would just leave it in. I thought there were camera probs. on the missing tracks. Does anyone know?

    The City of Widows

    Do you honestly think it could be achieved without bloodshed? As for providing for children - in some areas having a female child is seen as a curse because of the dowry that has to be given at marriage.

    City of Blinding Lights is AMAZING!

    I don't think it sounds compressed to death or whatever. Still a lot of dynamic range on my 100 watt RMS system to my dog ears. What's there to complain about?

    The City of Widows

    India needs to trash it's caste system. It needs some kind of a cultural revolution or uprising. It would be cruel & kill millions, but is needed. Sorry I just had to say that.
