Soe 26 - ?

[Gonna Run 2 U]

Sorry if this was posted but this is another small clip of the rehearsal with just edge. Looks like there may be a heavy delay guitar sound in there at some point as well.

I just hope we don't hear relentless bitching tomorrow about this being a pop song. We've known that for a year. The question should be: Is it a good pop song?

I cannot agree with this one enough. Thank you, thank you.

maybe someone with more of a musicians ear can confirm here... But does that sound like TBT? Seems like a different key than the prior clip with the singing...

 

[Reg McGowan]

is this what the Studio version sounds like....??

Not what I expected at all...

 

[TinKnight]

WHERE IS HEeEeEe

 

[The_acrobat]

Just saw that all tickets, all sections are now 35-70 bucks at the show tonight. 70 for lower level that were 260. sigh. This US third leg was such a bad idea.

This is standard in the concert industry. Charge high, sell what you can, then drop the price a week before to sell the rest. I had always intended to buy tickets to the Indy show, but I didn't do so until 2 days ago. I knew there'd be a price drop, so I was able to score some decent seats in the $70 range.

U2 aren't the only band that does this. Fact is, Detroit was a full house. Minneapolis, Indianapolis and San Diego will be pretty much full. Buffalo, KC, NO and Phoenix are gonna be similar to what we saw in Pittsburgh. Sections tarped off but still above 40K. St. Louis... eeehhh

They should release Blackout to rock stations at the same time seeing as Best Thing is poppy

Q-104.3 NY "8am premier of You're the Best Thing About Me" [emoji106][emoji106]

The verse melody is very familiar. Can't quite place it yet. An old song.

 

[IrishDawg]

The whole song reminds me of Stuck in a Moment a bit. Not a bad thing. I like the guitar work in TBT more from what I can make out.

Not sure if you're serious or not. But if you are - It took me a couple days of listening to the Kygo mix to realize it was EBTTRT.

Regardless of key, it's the same song.

sweet! Anyone know about KROQ or others??

 

[U2DMfan]

Completely serious. But that wasn't the song I'm thinking of.

 

[U2DMfan]

I'm talking about a non-U2 song. Maybe 60s pop.

 

[womanfish]

Regardless of key, it's the same song.

Yeah, listening to both clips back to back it became more clear to me.

 

[TinKnight]

Yeah, I was showing my girlfriend who's a casual U2 fan at best (and a hater at worst) the Kygo clip a year ago and immediately she asked if it was an EBTTRT remix.

 

[U2DMfan]

On second thought...maybe it is EBTTRT I'm thinking of. Haha.

 

[TinKnight]

on second thought...maybe it is ebttrt i'm thinking of. Haha.

 

[renvst]

When should we expect the new single ? (UK Time)

 

[Hewson]

I'm talking about a non-U2 song. Maybe 60s pop.

At one point sounds a bit like All Along the Watchtower from R&H.

 

[prbiker15]

When should we expect the new single ? (UK Time)

8 AM EST = 1 PM your time?

 

[womanfish]

Well I'm not sure on this. But i think 8am Eastern US is 1pm London.

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

8 AM EST = 1 PM your time?

That means by tomorrow morning when I wake up by 5am pst to go to work, there will be a new u2 song waiting for me!! Awesome.. Larsen

 

[popacrobat]

I'll be at the dentist 7:45 am EST, so there will be a nice treat waiting for me on the otherside.

The comedown from laughing gas?

 

[womanfish]

surprised its so quiet on Twitter... i would have thought we would hear some info about other stations debuting the song or if iTunes will have it right away, accompanying video?, etc...

I'm not surprised. the U2 team has done an awfully good job at keeping thing under wraps and on their terms/timeline.
