No sex on recent U2 releases

[zepher25]

weather or not a song is interperated as being sexual is in the eye of the beholder, vertigo could be refering to a drunk one night stand with a spanish man or woman. plus the video clips help set a scene, particularly electrical storm, larry and the mermaid got pretty close in that bathtub

I think the sex appeal is there. If not literally in the lyrics, then in the delivery! Hahaha!

I wanted to say the same as you, hcbiggs - that is that i too think that LAPOE is quite sexual, esp when Bono bangs the drum

I know what you mean. I don't why but there's something so HOT when Bono starts to bang that drum (favourite smiley!) during LAPOE.
Did you see the short video clip, that I mentioned in my first post, that was posted on Pleba last week?

Um, Kite anybody?

Something is about to give
I can feel it coming
I think I know what it is
I'm not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to live
And when I'm flat on my back
I hope to feel like I did
And hardness, it sets in
You need some protection
The thinner the skin

I will never think of that song in the same way again...

Good lord you need to have a perverted mind if you find Kite or OOTS sexual.

You remnd me of kids in my classes, finding something vulgar in comletely innocent things.

 

[pgv]

When i first heard kite i seriously thought it was something less innocent than ive later heard it to be about.
c'mon, 'i can feel it coming'...its just too much!

 

[hcbiggs2002]

I get the feeling that Bono accidentallyonpurpose sometimes writes these lyrics with double meaning to see if anyone picks up on it!! Then acts all innocent and goes "What?!? I never!?!"

 

[Babydoll]

i agree with you there

 

[susanp6]

Hcbiggs - I only just found this thread again after it being moved i don't know if i saw the clip you're talking about but i did see Bono do that 10 feet in front of me

And i never thought about those words from Kite in that way before normally, i pick up on the dirty stuff!
