I fully realize that you aren't and that you can't comprehend the difference between the two songs, and once again your inaccurate way of describing the differences in how Streets has been performed is a prime example. It's also clear that you also don't understand the difference in technique he's using to sing some of those songs that you listed nowadays as opposed to how he used to sing them.
However, that doesn't mean that a factual or at minimum well-informed opinion about things musical can't be stated, simply by virtue of the fact that you can't see it yourself or aren't informed in that area. Music, notes, tones, technique and degrees of difficulty in those areas can be assessed in a technical sense, yes they can, and whether you believe they can or not is irrelevant, really. But, I have no burning desire to convince you so if you don't "buy it", I can totally live with that.
I post on interference and have listened to U2 non stop for the last 6 years. I think I know the difference between ASOH and TUF.
Your over the internet diagnosis of my ignorance wont change anything in that department.
Fantastic.
But you still haven't told me what is wrong with me saying very simply that Streets was sung in a deeper voice and the other songs were merely performed differently.
Did I get into any technical analysis? No.
Precisely because I am no expert.
I do believe that degrees of difficulty can be assessed in a technical sense, I just don't see how ASOH could be that much harder than UF or UV or NLOTH.
I have no interest in getting into any further argument with you over it. You keep going until you think you've "proven" yourself right, so I'm not getting into that.
Having said all that, I'll again state that I would definitely like to hear this song again, in whatever form Bono/U2 can do it now. I loved UF, also, even if I sortof wished he'd done it closer to the original. That doesn't make me a bad fan or a "Bono detractor"
I am with you
Its one of my favorites and it certainly could replace an ATYCLB song in the set list.
I never said you were a bad fan or Bono detractor. I was just going on the general implication from some that Bono couldn't handle this song today.
