[zwervers2]

chris martin is a genius people

you just heared your hero say he words

 

[crazyu2]

Can I also see this? I am listening just fine...but the web cam only shows the studio...empty...

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Haha yes! Bono calls Chris Martin a wanker!

 

[mama cass]

 

[MrBTH]

That was funnnny!!

unfortunately my stream keeps cutting out...

 

[steve1960]

Why no cover? No time to rehearse it? They've known they were goin to be on the show for weeks and they can't spare a half hour to learn the chords to "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)"!!!! Bullshit, either they've bottled it or they are going to go promo for Magnificent

I agree. I find it amazing that a band as big as U2 can't learn to do a cover version in time. The cover versions are an integral part of the Live Lounge package whereby all of the cover versions performed during the year end up on a best of CD? As you say they have bottled it.

 

[Axver]

Chris Martin is both a wanker and a great melodist?

 

[Niceman]

Chris Martin is both a wanker and a great melodist?

Maybe wanking helps with writing melodies????

 

[naycookeu2]

Chris Martin is a WANKER - FACT!

 

[djgeeree]

Maybe wanking helps with writing melodies????

ahahaha

 

[MikeyJB]

Haha that was brilliant - I bet Jo Whiley was sweating for a bit there!

 

[mama cass]

Chris Martin is both a wanker and a great melodist?

you missed the "dysfunctional" and "cretin" bit hahaha *tears*

oh god i would love to see some "costume wars" - too fecking funny hahaha

 

[zwervers2]

Maybe wanking helps with writing melodies????

I had a pretty creative period some years ago but wih this marriagestuff
well. nevermind

 

[Jim]

Haha - love it.. Adam: "I hope this isn't going to be costume wars" (with The Killers!).
They are so much funnier and relaxed on radio interviews like this live and with people they have a history with. I reckon the interview with Mayo this afternoon will be similar as well as with Chris Evans. The last time they were in with Evans years ago was hilarious.

 

[Niceman]

ahahaha

You should hear the tunes I cum up with!!!! LOOOOOL!!!!!

 

[djgeeree]

BBC - U2 has changed, woohoo almost here wooo

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

He also mumbled something about Martin being a dysfunctional character and a cretin. It's a damn shame that he had to go and say he was joking.

 

[sick puppy]

Well done Bono! Swearing on the BBC, that'll be more complaints in Parliament now

Edge said they just didnt have the time to do a cover to a standard they were happy with so its going to be 3 u2 originals
