FANTASTIC picture on the Sometimes single

[Jim]

Sorry if this has already been mentioned..

I've just picked up the 'Sometimes' singles and the DVD has a great picture on the back. It's a 'band shot' of the U2 Dads - all very serious looking and togged out like something out of Resevoir Dogs! A certain Father is also sporting his Son's shades!

Genius!

As for the single, Ave Maria is pretty wierd - need to play it a few more times, and the Vertigo remix is full on.. love it!

 

[Aardvark747]

Yeah - that pic is worth buying the dvd for alone!

Trying to get into Ave Maria...I guess I was expecting something akin to Miss Sarajevo, but of course, it's a totally different song.

 

[Lo-Fi]

Can someone post the pictures? or even the TR remix of Vertigo, I ain't heard it yet in it's full glory, just the crappy Radio 1 recording.

 

[carrieluvv]

post the picture ! post the picture!

 

[enajh2]

Give me a few minutes and I'll scan it...I'm still trying to get the security sticker off mine!!

[MrsSpringsteen]

that's just beautiful-thanks so much for scanning that!

Forget it, I don't even know which is which

Bob

 

[Jim]

Adam's Dad is the tall fella

 

[Aardvark747]

So these are their 'real' dads then? Forgive me for being dumb! They all certainly look like they are!

Pre-ordered mine last week, I can't wait until it arrives.

Good scan

 

[pepokiss]

In order (and just by looking at them), from left to right

LARRY's dad, ADAM's dad, BONO's dad, THE EDGE's dad

what's even more impressive is that BOB and BONO don't look that alike... I mean.. LOOK AT EDGE's DAD... they're that same

 

[macphister]

that's fantastic.....

 

[ZeroDude]

Adams Da looks exactly like you'd expect him to look

 

[Miroslava]

That is beayuuuuuuuuutiful

Thanks Alan!

 

[starsgoblue]

That picture is just PERFECTION.

Half expected to see Edge's dad in a beanie though.

So is the video for Sometimes on the DVD?

 

[TheFlyOnTheWall]

When was that photo taken?

 

[TheFlyOnTheWall]

They should've put that pic on the single cover... (hey, rember being original? )

 

[U2girl]

Edge's father is very similar to his son, and I don't know, the tallest one looks to me like he could be Larry's father and Adam's father on the far left side.

 

[Popmartijn]

When was that photo taken?

I read somewhere that Anton Corbijn took that picture in 1999.

 

[enajh2]

Kelly's picture, posted in PLEBA, eliminates all doubt....

 

[lazarus]

Yeah, Adam's dad certainly looks the poshest of the 4. But Larry's dad is apparent only by default of the other three, because he's SMILING.

Must you whinge about every slightest thing??

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

That's a GREAT shot.

I pre-ordered 2 of the Sometimes singles off Amazon the other day, but I didn't see the dvd listed. Do I have to go to the UK site for that one?

good picture but have to say Adams dad is a peculiar looking fella

 

[ADecentMelody]

Wow, before you all started saying they're their dads I thought they were pictures of U2 "aged" through cgi. Adam's dad actually looked like Larry at first glance (for me).

 

[Chizip]

wow, 50 thumbs up
