Great song, great album.

Wow. VERY cool choice on the band's part. I've read a lot of stuff comparing that album (Funeral) as sounding like Unforgettable Fire era U2.
Now I'm looking forward to the show even more.

but after listening to it again, how could anyone mistake that for U2, especially the vocal?
I was under the impression many thought it was an unreleased U2 song. That doesn't sound like something they would do, but...
I also thought Wake Up was a different song on the album...there are probably other songs that would be better intros, like Rebellion (Lies).

Rebellion (Lies) would have gotten everyone all worked up to hear the bassline from WOWY...

Song before concert begins
I saw the band in Anaheim and in LA and as I expected, I was blown away. The concert is incredible and moving. I'd see them again if I could...
But I was curious if anyone knew what the name of the song was that played right before the guys took the stage. It definitely gets you ready and excited for U2 to take the stage!

Awesome! Thanks fredstab. I had downloaded Rebellion (lies) from Itunes, but now, I think I'm going to download their whole album.
Last night, after 40 ended, and the lights sadly came up, they started playing a cover of "It's the end of the world" that was really cool too. Wouldn't happen to know who sang that as well?

Don't know who sang it, but it was a slow, R&B style version -- really good -- that made me think before I finally figured out what the song was.
As I recall, "Clocks" by Coldplay was the last song before "Wake Up."

The Intro song to the Anaheim show . . .
On the first night of the Anaheim show, there was a song played (labeled "Intro") before leading into LAPOE. Anyone know which song it is and who sings it. The anthemic scope of it, and the voice, kinda remind me of early 80's Geldoff . . .
Any help on this would be great. Thanks.

Is this song played with the house lights down??? Also, I just love the feeling when U2 is just about to take stage. That feeling alone is worth the price of admission. Another thing, how long are the house lights down before U2 takes stage?
