Thoughts on song(s) to be played tonight for the Pope?

[deltau922]

I'm guessing it'll probably be MLK, but I could also see them doing When I look At The World or Walk On.

A place that has to be believed to be seen.

If they add anything at all.

i guess a snippet of ave maria

When I Look At The World was only snippeted once on Elevation, so I think it's out of the question.

I'm hoping they close the show with Gloria/Yahweh/40. That'd be wonderful.

Walk On or MLK are probably possibilities. MLK into Streets would be superb. They could very easily pull off Pride/MLK/Streets, if Bono can put aside his African intro.

It would be awesome if they started the concert with MLK and that merged into COBL! The screens could have a big picture of the Pope during MLK! Ave Maria is a great idea also, Bono could sing it after One is over! I would LOVE that!

beutiful.

 

[Partyslammer]

MLK/Streets/Pride (or MLK/Pride/Streets) to open the show would be perfect. I'll be leaving for that show in a couple hours.

They could what they did back in '87 when I saw them open with MLK at the last LA Sports Arena show and have Bono do the song with absolutely no lights - easily the best beginning to a U2 show I've ever seen.

T.B.

A song will almost certainly be dedicated to him, if they don't add something like MLK.

 

[verte76]

Yes, a song will be dedicated to the Pope. It'll be interesting to see which one it is.

 

[theu2fly]

Yahweh or One

 

[theu2fly]

Or even Grace... but that's a long shot!

 

[Westport]

I love the idea of opening with MLK or even Yahweh and then reprising it at the end of the show.

 

[jphelmet]

i have always thought MLK would be a great opener ala the indoor zoo tv shows where bono would walk out a sing all alone. i just want to see MLK- Until the end of the World - that has always been my dream opener.

I hope nothing is changed just for the pope.
What Bono said during 40 on the 1st is enough.

Wow, I have goose bumps just reading this.
MLK, Ave Marie, One, COBL would be awesome in any order
