Sometimes You Cant Make It......

[Aardvark747]

Is it just me - or, during the 2nd verse does Bono sing - "...and it's you when I dont jump on the phone"??

Bloody well sounds like it to me!!

 

[Nisse]

sounds like
"when I don't pick up the phone"
to me

maybe Bono had an issue with phones when he was younger. it's best to stay out of it.

 

[Aardvark747]

...I wonder how he sounded on this line LAST NITE then?

 

[Axver]

Sounds like "it's you when I don't drink up the phone" to me.

 

[Aardvark747]

Sounds like "it's you when I don't drink up the phone" to me.

Ah yes - that's it...I knew it would make sense in the end.

 

[Axver]

What, you mean to tell me that you DON'T drink telephones?

 

[Aardvark747]

Afraid not.....but I gotta say - I did have this habit as a child of jumping on them from time to time....


Perhaps Bono and I should meet at Cardiff, to arrange some joint counciling sessions, to try and overcome our obvious mental-scarrings that have lurked since childhood.

Sounds like "it's you when I don't drink up the phone" to me.

Ha ha ha ha...classic!!!

 

[tilen]

Sounds like "it's you when I don't drink up the phone" to me.

I agree he sang that; like the original lyric better though..

 

[Aardvark747]

I hope he explains what the hell he means by the new line one day!!!

Be interesting to hear how the 2nd nite's performence of the song went - maybe it'll be clearer - or back to normal!
