Vertigo, Crazy, Sunday was the best part for me.
The Crazy remix is amazing live. My only complaint about this song, is the one that follows it, complete buzz kill. You want to keep dancing and then they follow it up with Sunday Bloody Sunday.
Hells no! I don't want to hear the album version when they come to the US. I want the remix.
They took the 2nd worst song they've ever written and made it beyond pathetic. IMO, I do not think they believe in the song that much--how could they change it if it was such highlight of the album? This song is now beyond embarrassing. At least they are not playing SUC.
I guess i'm going to have to add my name to the list of those who really don't care for the remix version.
Interestingly, when we first heard it in Dublin, my wife said "wow....they're actually playing Discoteque"......then horrified we learned it was actually "Crazy".
I totally understand that people love the remix.....hell, it was clearly obvious from the Dublin shows as it got a HUGE response. But for me, I totally dig the album version. Call it pop-ish, boring, or whatever.....for some reason it has very much a "Walk On" kind of vibe to it.....it resonates that way with me and I really, really was looking forward to hearing it. If I have to pick one "bummed" moment for an immaculate show, this would be it.
I get that U2 wanted to mix it up and put forth a really party atmosphere....I hear that. I'm just hoping that for the N/A leg they re-work it and go towards a more standard interpretation. I think it could be amazing live that way.
I know i'm in the minority here, but that's my .02.
I am sure it is entertaining--but it is cheap, IMO. I am sure the Rose Bowl will be jumping when the Black Eyed Peas are on, but that doesn't mean they don't suck. Also, while I hate Crazy, I was at least lukewarm to the Letterman performance. If they plan on playing this abomination every night, I would much prefer the album version to the Pussycat Dolls treatment.

I have a feeling that, if U2 move back to arenas next tour, Krazy will be played in its original form a decent bit.

It's becoming more wacky by the evening- some of Bono's dance moves are quite extrarordinary haha. This remix really divides fans- for those of us who loved the irony and self-deprecation of ZOO TV, PopMart and the K Mart press conference, this is a god send. I just hope they keep playing it because it's sounding great.
