Ordinary Love

[wolfwill23]

Listened to :30. Boring.

 

[last unicorn]

Then listen longer. How about not making a judgment on a song that you haven't listened to in full?

Listened to :30. Boring.

You're cool

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Listened to :30. Boring.

Haha oh jesus

 

[super fly guy]

Listened to :30. Boring.

Fail.

Talking is an "interesting" texture?

To each their own. I find the nuances in Bono's voice on songs like WAS and Cedars to be much more engaging than his shrill "poppy" singing on Ordinary Love. (Btw if you think he's "talking" on WAS, maybe you need to reacquaint yourself with that song. He's clearly singing, and it's a fine performance).

 

[Galeongirl]

Have listened to it on my ipod on repeat for a few days, and it started to annoy me. Didn't have that with NLOTH2 or a lot of other songs.
It's a fun little tune, but that's about it for me.

I've ordered the movie soundtrack today. I wonder if the soundtrack version will be different from the single version. I hope they won't have the fade out in the end.

I'm really excited to hear this new version of Breathe.

 

[Dragonfave]

Backing vocals by The Edge, Larry Mullen Jr and Adam Clayton

Oh noez. The band is really turning into Coldplay!

 

[last unicorn]

They're not a band anymore, they're a singing group now

 

[MrPryck2U]

Personally, I think it's a grower.

Once the jolt of 'adult contemporary sheen' wears off, it's actually a pretty good little tune.

I agree with this. The more I listen to it, the more I enjoy it.

 

[Peterrrrr]

This song got an athmosphere that havent been on the three latest albums, Winter and the original version of Mercy had this kind of atmosphere.

Last time I heard it was on Pop(IYWTVD...), it has this kind of Achtung Baby-voiceecho sound also.

 

[mama cass]

Backing vocals by The Edge, Larry Mullen Jr and Adam Clayton

PROPER boy band!

 

[Von Schloopen]

Proper Grandpa band.

 

[Zoomerang96]

I've listened to this song a number of times now, and I have to say that the article on the front page of this very website sums up my thoughts completely. Ordinary Love Gets No Extraordinary Response From Fans - U2 Interference

 

[Von Schloopen]

Rather odd, one person writing on behalf of "fans."

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

That article is a piece of crap, to put it mildly.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

I love it when an article try's to speak on behalf of an entire fan base!!!

 

[LemonMelon]

The front page doesn't have enough gossipy crap straight from the boards.

Gabe and Nick Annoy U2 Fans, Derail Threads Again - U2 Interference
MadForIt Derides Middle Class - U2 Interference

I would actually read the front page if it had content like this.

Imagine that!

u2girl goes on a mass Private Message strike again!

 

[LemonMelon]

MadForIt Derides Middle Class!

 

[mikal]

mikal leaves and comes back again - U2 Interference

 

[The Disciple]

Rather odd, one person writing on behalf of "fans."

My thoughts EXACTLY. I just posted a comment... which may very well be deleted.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

I think that was the first visit I've made to the front page since last decade.

 

[Gonna Run 2 U]

Danger Mouse didn't produce this alternate breathe version?

 

[corianderstem]

PROPER boy band!

Man band.

 

[kingofsorrow]

it seems the world has been waiting 5 yrs just for the chance to bash u2. no wonder it took this long for them to release anything.

Ha! I was just thinking about this the other day.
