The Fly
If you could make any changes to any album U2 has ever released, what would the changes be?
Steve, you are wrong. I like One Step Closer, therefore it is a great song.
Fuck you man!
1. Hold U2 hostage and force them to release 4 albums in the space of an hour.
2. Put all band members + McGuinness in boot.
3. Realise McGuinness is too fat, order delivery van.
4. Unload McGuinness at fitness centre.
5. Drive band members to my house.
6. They play 3 hour show in my alfresco.
7. Force them to play songs from Pop and deeper cuts from Passengers.
8. Keep food at a notable distance away from Bono.
9. After show, lock band in cellar.
10. Profit???
I would change the release date of Songs of Ascent to March 2010
Zooropa: Bono sings Wanderer (on the album.)
you're funny.This thread is funny.
I would try to find a way to put "Deep In The Heart" on JT. It's still a flawless album, but it would be even more flawless (i realize that made no sense) if that song was somewhere, maybe right after Running To Stand Still, serving as a weird haunting escapist intermission fantasy before getting back to business with Red Hill Mining Town.
POP - put "I'm Not Your Baby" (with Sinead) there instead of "If God Will Send..." (that being the one song I usually skip)... have Holy Joe there (somewhere...in place of Miami maybe?)in all its garageband glory, somewhere towards the beginning of the album...have Bono's vocals (somehow, miraculously) on the level of AB and Z, and have "Discoteque" absolutely soar, with a less murky production...smoother...if Miami had to be there, hold back the distorted guitars and make it more hiphop, more weird sounds, less rock.
ATYCLB - i kinda like it the way it is...maybe have Levitate (without freedom has a scent line)
BOMB - burn it (not to disc). shred it. beat it up Office Space style. Instead, release 6song EP: Native Son (made better, less preachy)...Xanax and Wine (I finally prefer this to Fast Cars...used to be other way around)...Crumbs (with lyrical rewrite)...Original Of The Species (with a new less cheesy chorus)...Mercy (in its original form)...Electrical Storm (Orbit Mix...the way it is...with the line reading "heavy as a drug")
NLOTH: Write an actual chorus for title track...Magnificent (completely rework, make it a slowly building stadium pounder, but all ambient and heavenly...and rocking...not clubbing...have Bono's vocals more unapollegetically Bono)...UC (more of a psalm like in the making of clips...less technospeak, or at least find a way to make it cool)...CT (rewritten as a dark punk song about needing to go crazy or ELSE)...Boots (would seem ok now that Vertigo doesn't exist)...SUC ( )...yes I refuse to speak about that one...Breathe (have it be a Bside)...add Every Breaking Wave (this would be the single)...add Winter (the original...with no buttered toast)...have SOON be the closer...write another song that totally kills live (in a UTEOTW way)
I'm done I guess.
This is my new favorite smiley.
