[NHChris]

Q: What will come first...Wal-Mart stores on Pluto, or Oasis singing a snippet of a U2 song?

A: Will the Pluto stores be 'Super Centers?'

 

[AtomicBono]

Blackbird - The Beatles

unfortunatley I don't have it on this computer but they did it at my concert, Chicago 1

Bono sang a snippet of Nelly's "Hot In Here" during Elevation?? Isn't that the song that goes "it's getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes"? I don't know whether to be disappointed, amused, or turned on... and he did a snippet of Ultraviolet?! now that is DEFINITELY drool-worthy...if only they would play it for real!! same goes with Please and In God's Country.

Miami snippet done in vancouver

barely

miami...mimami


does that really count as a snippet?

 

[Eidolon Bird]

There was a little bit of "Follow the Yellow Brick Road" at the Phoenix two show, while Bono was walking down the darkened ellipse.

yes.

 

[popacrobat]

we need to change the snippet rules then

\I re-listened to that today and started cracking up

 

[typhoon]

That's Oasis "Hello"

They stole it from Gary Glitter.

 

[Chizip]

i remember during the Elevation Tour people would say U2 snippetted Radiohead's Creep during Elevation, so I was looking forward to hearing that, and all he said was "And I'm a Creep"

i dont know if I'd really consider Bono mouthing a couple words a "snippet"

lol...true so true...if bono whispers the word lemon one time some people(not everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) will see this as a snippet...just insane

 

[zwervers2]

maybe we can create a criterium for this something like "has to be sung 2 lines" or more to be considered a snippet...

 

[U2Girl1978]

They've certainly snippeted "and". Don't forget about that!

 

[toze pinto]

lol...true so true...if bono whispers the word lemon one time some people(not everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) will see this as a snippet...just insane

Yep but if Bono sings LeeeeeeeeeeeeMooooooon in a falsetto Macphisto voice only once i could see lot of people shouting "snippet"

 

[zwervers2]

That would be if he was able to pull it off....forget about that .....would be very interesting tohear him sing(or attempt to sing) lemon like he did in the zoo-days...would sound like shit I bet They could attempt an all rock 'n roll version of the song..that would be COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[learn2kneel]

if thats the case then acrobat was snippeted on San Diegeo 1 during Zoo Station

 

[devalera1]

Pretty sure that at one point Bono sang part of Dylan's "Mr Tamborine Man" during "All Because of You"

 

[pepokiss]

Sgt Peppers... in Beautiful Day

 

[liamcool]

Party Girl / Get Up Stand Up / Fight For Your Right (To Party)

 

[discothequeLP]

for the performance of Beautiful Day on the Radio 1 show last November, Bono sang a snippet of Promenade at the end. i don't think thats techinically the vertigo tour but it might be.

 

[liamcool]

Got proof?

This is a bad example of a snippet IMO.

Promenade lyrics -
...Radio, radio, radio, radio, radio, radio...

Bono sings -
Radio 1, Radio 1, Turn your radio, radio, radio on...
(Note: Radio 1 is the radio station as mentioned)

 

[U2Spain]

Short snippet of Franz Ferdinand's "to the fire" in Vertigo 2
( Madrid 11/08 ): burn this city, burn this city!!

 

[discothequeLP]

i only call it a snippet so that when you see the tracklist you can see "Beautiful Day/Promenade (snippet)" and go for a moment.



plus i think it sounded really really good
