War Child
In the last couple of days there has been appreciation threads for Always ? Stateless and The Ground Beneath Her Feet. A couple of weeks ago there was an appreciation thread to Summer Rain (page 4 / 02-07). This got me to thinking about a thread to see what would people consider as their favorite B-Side from ATYCLB. Can a Premium member please make a poll for me ?
Stateless
The Ground Beneath Her Feet
Falling At Your Feet
Summer Rain
Always
Don?t Take Your Guns To Town
Electrical Storm
*Big Girls Are Best
In a number of interviews around the release of The Million Dollar Hotel Soundtrack Bono stated that TGBHF and Stateless were meant for ATYCLB but they felt it already had too many ballads. In the book Into The Heart Daniel Lanois stated that Falling At Your Feet was seriously considered for ATYCLB. I?ve read Bono say that the lyrics of Electrical Storm were written to reflect the post 9-11 tension yet I also believe I read that The Edge say during the promotion of the Best Of 90s that the musical ideas of Electrical Storm were from a track recorded during the ATYCLB sessions. Even if I do not remember correctly Edge?s comments I believe it has more in common musically and lyrically with ATYCLB than Big Girls Are Best. The liner notes for Big Girls tip me off that it was leftover from the POP sessions. ?Big Girls are Best: Music by U2. Lyrics by Bono and the Edge. Produced by Howie B and Flood. Assisted by Rob Kirwan. Engineered by Flood. Programming by Howie B. Original mix by Flood. Final mix and additional programming by Tim Palmer at Scream Studios, Los Angeles. ?
