Gonna Run 2 U
New Yorker
Anyone know where this song is from? Bono's vocals are really good on it.
Gonna Run 2 U said:Also, i just stumbled upon a song he did with INXS ?!
Axver said:Actually, they're both on the new album. Along with a 15 minute long version of Mercy. I've had an advance copy for the last two months and just haven't told you guys.

Is this confirmed!!!!!
Varitek said:Is this confirmed!!!!! ZOMG MERCY
Axver said:Even better than confirm(ed): rumou(RED).
Varitek said:
I was waiting for this one to get done.

I latch onto things, burn them out in my head, then inevitably interference offers up something else for me to mock. I give this one 2 more days or so.
Varitek said:
Yeah I'm wondering what the next source will be. The Bono's Facebook thread showed promise, but so far no dice.

Axver said:
Psh. We'll probably end up referencing this all through the setlist parties on the next tour.
No spoken words said:
So did Bono growing his hair out, but that dead-ended.
It's not if, it's when, though.

I used "it's confirmed" in real life last night and my friends all thought I was insane when I said "what, I got it from my U2 message board." (They have also said at various times that they are going to stage an intervention.)
Axver said:We should play a drinking game in the setlist parties. Every time something related to confirmed/rumoured gets mentioned, you have a drink.
"OMG THEY'RE PLAYING TWILIGHT!" "Is this rumoured?!?!"
I'm convinced half of the setlist partiers will die of alcohol poisoning by the end of the first gig. And that includes some of the people not drinking, due to the intoxication permeating the thread.
No spoken words said:Yeah, that game would prove to be the end of the set list threads forever, since all participants would be dead.
Axver said:
I'm sure my ghost will continue to run the threads. The fondness for setlists runs deep.

Man they really pulled out all the stops on this one!!!!
Axver said:Actually, it will be a new 2009 version, Nerdy Ghost. Edge will sing it.
doctorwho said:I'm making an mp3 (high quality mp3's - not mp4a's or whatever iTunes is in) collection of all of U2's studio songs, including various side projects. I have these two songs included. I'm almost done with it (throwing in some special live material too) and it covers all of U2's career to date. My goal was NOT to include tons of live stuff (although some is there) because I don't have it all and there's just too much. Rather, I wanted all studio works (and I think I got them all - although I'm sure I'm missing something).
To me, this collection is the REAL U2 Anthology - not what they released on iTunes. I just wish there was a way to share this with fans so that people could hear some of these songs (like the ones mentioned in this thread). Because there will always be new fans who haven't heard something before - and I'd love for them to be caught up quickly.
