Reggo, how and why did you pay for Ax's premium, simply for some bad music oversharing?
Because she's cool like that.

Edge wasn't kidding when he said they were a shit cover band.
*listens to Paint It, Black*
Oh HELL no.
Gawd, that's not even just Bono doing badly. That's the whole goddamn band's fault. Mick Jagger should, like--fuck if I know. Something evil.

Precisely. He was talking about bad music stuffs and I said i'd pay for his premium if he'd admit something embarrassing. Got him to admit 3 things. It was awesome. I paid for A membership, then had to PM Sicy to ask her to tell Andy to apply it to Axver.Reggo, how and why did you pay for Ax's premium, simply for some bad music oversharing?
Very funnyI don't think U2 have always been that bad at covers. See: Dancing Barefoot, Lovetown Watchtower, Lovetown Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Night And Day.
Funny how those are all from the same era ...
Oh God. *plays*After this, I can't wait for your reaction to Fortunate Son!
oooh did I see the word Lovetown???

Night and Day is a poor interpretation regardless of its importance in their catalogue, and Watchtower still has nothing on better covers, even if it tore things up live. But I'll agree that things were better then, of course.
Nothing owns HendrixI admittedly haven't actually heard another version of Night And Day, but considerably enjoy U2's version. As for Watchtower, I've heard both Dylan and Hendrix's versions, and as heretical as this is to say, Lovetown Watchtower is not only better than them, it fucking owns them.
No No No no nononononononono!!!!
PHAIL, BONO. EPIC PHAIL COLLINS.
Dear Bono,
YOU DO NOT HAVE THE VOICE TO SING SOUTHERN ROCK. SO STOP IT.
Thank you.
My love to Adam,
Reggo.

At least Edge is TRYING on FS. Can't say the same for Paint It Black. I mean, he didn't even do the solo at the intro right! And it's not that hard!
What really baffles me is it's like their heart just isn't in the cover anyway. I can't figure out why they bothered or why they released it, especially as there were other songs, original songs, floating around that they could have used as WGRYWH b-sides if they were desperate.
I see. Well, remember that for future reference.You're saying this to somebody who really doesn't find Hendrix all that interesting.
But if you guys wanna hear a REALLY bad cover, like on par with these, I could always send you this shit version of "My Generation" Green Day did. I hope Keith Moon came back from the dead and murdered John Kiffmeyer.
That was pretty awful, yes, but My Generation is just a fucking mess. I won't even have it on my iPod, it's that bad.Worse than Limp Bizkit's Behind Blue Eyes? Because it seems to me that's got to be the worst Who cover ever simply by virtue of being done by LIMP BIZKIT.
And what the hell is WGRYWH again?
Sounds good. I hated that my Superthread purity score was only 7 point slower than my life purity score.OK, so, update on the purity tests. I've split the earlier draft into a revision of the original test and a Superthread-specific test. The revised original currently has 77 questions, aiming for 100, and the Superthread test has 41 questions, aiming for 50.

Ah, don't think I bothered buying that single. That and Mysterious Ways with its 48 fucking remixes.Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses.
Part of the reason I abbreviate it is that I fucking hate "Gonna".
