pure energy rush..wish I'd got to hear it live

this is my theme song for this year

I can't stop listening to it, I TOTALLY understand what Bono meant. that guy's just a genius isn't he???

*thinks Bono is the coolest person who ever lived and thinks he knows everything

~~~~~~~~~~

Monday morning
Eighteen years of dawning
I say how long
You say how long


It was one dull morning
Woke the world with bawling
I was so sad ..so sad...
It was so bad


I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control


Boys and Girls
Go to the school and girls
They make children
Not like this one


I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control


I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control


Out of control.........


I fought fate
There's blood on the garden gate
The man said childhood
It's in his childhood


One day I'll die
The choice will not be mine
Will it be too late
You can't fight it


I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control

me too Acro

Are you turning 18 this year, BG?

You know, I never knew before that the song had the line "there's blood on the garden gate" in it. Weird. Seven years since I first heard that song.

Ever heard the live version--the one I have is from the "dream it all up again" concert in Dublin at the end of the 80's--where he goes "Boys and girls go to school and then...it starts getting complicated"? I love that.

I enjoy the song, and it would be a blast live, but I have to say I would much rather hear Electric Co live--now that would be amazing.

Your sun so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars
Carved into stone on the face of earth
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes

yeah I am Scatter, and i was starting to get depressed about it.. when I listened to Out of Control and for the first time that song made perfect sense..I could feel it; it was so weird
I am convinced U2 has a song to make me feel ok in every single little personal crisis I have

I've never heard that live version, sadly..
you know what song Id kill to hear live (besides this one of course)? Another Time, Another Place...I LOVE that one. Electric Co. would be nice too though

oh and while we're talking about growing up, I'll throw in another random contribution: The Catcher In the Rye is the most brilliant and gorgeous book I've ever read!! it took a good english teacher to make me like it but wow, it's amazing..
anyone else love this book?

I've never read it, but I understand what you mean about a good english teacher...who taught me to love King Lear & Brave New World.

Grace, you seem so much older than 18.

 

[Blue_Angel]

haha

[The_Sweetest_Thing]

thank you Sweetest_Thing btw

What for Blue_Angel?

 

[Blue_Angel]

whoops, I am BabyGrace Sweetest_Thing!

 

[The_Sweetest_Thing]

whoops, I am BabyGrace Sweetest_Thing!

YOU ARE???

I had no idea...in fact, I was going to PM BG and ask her why she hadn't posted in a while....

Why the name change?

I have to go back and re-read some posts now....things change...I think there's a different connotation when i know it's you, as opposed to Blue_Angel (whom I don't know at all), whereas BG has a history here. Does this make sense?
--If not, I'll elaborate...(let me know)


BTW - love the new name )
