Is there a U2 song called Always ?

[bloodysunday972]

Ok I was listening to winamp radio station that plays U2 stuff and a song came on that instantly caught my attention. It sounded like Beautiful Day in the background but with Bono singing different lyrics ?

This is the moment we already share
Now and forever and Always

 

[starsgoblue]

It's from the Beautful Day single, isn't it? That and Summer Rain.

 

[starsgoblue]

There is also a song called Always Forever Now....

But from the sounds of it it was probably the BD bside

 

[Axver]

Go check your copy of the Beautiful Day single.

1. Beautiful Day
2. Summer Rain
3. Always

 

[Lucy3011]

In other words, yeah, 'Always' is what Beautiful Day used to be.

 

[shrmn8rpoptart]

actually, since you live in the us, it might be easier to head to target and pick up a copy of the ep "7". but they are only found at target.

 

[bloodysunday972]

Aw thanks folks

Sadly I only had the beautiful day single with the 2 popmart mexico tracks

 

[Lancemc]

Ah Always. Such a great tune.

 

[martha]

Indeed.

Hello hello!

 

[BonoFox1]

I didnt get the Beautiful Day single but it did come on the U2-7 cd
that was sold by exclusively by Target...I do love the acustic verions of Stuck in a moment from that cd

 

[Aardvark747]

I do like Always, but it's very similar (for me) to BD. Until the ending anyway..

 

[kiwilad]

I LOVE this song! I actually preferred it to BD for some time, tho I'm sure it wouldn't have been as comercially successful.

But the lyrics, so good!

 

[dreamingoutloud1]

That was my favorite U2 song for such a long time....Yahweh kind of sounds a bit like it to me....

 

[Evalicious]

Always is such a sweet song!


The lyrics are very......hmmm.........straight from the heart......

 

[celia]

Always is one of my favourite B sides!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Always

 

[Joshua_Tree_Hugger]

I absolutely adore "Always". Around the Summer of 2003, I listened to this song compulsively for a period. It was definately my favourite time of that time and one of my all time favourite U2 songs. "Summer Rain" is great too, but not quite as good!

By the way, check out an Interference review I did on the track a while back: http://forum.interference.com/t88065.html

(Hmmm... those ? marks should really be inverted commas ("), don't know what happened!)

 

[U2Soar]

Always is a great tune! Too many ignore it or put it down because of its relationship with BD. But hey it is a song in its own right - lyrically and musically. Maybe a companion song for Mercy? Though Luminous Times could be a wonderful companion song for Mercy.

 

[boosterjuice]

Always sounds too similar to BD.

 

[senrab]

"The soul needs beauty for a soulmate"

-used in both Always and A Man and A Woman.

 

[U2Soar]

Thanks booster for the boost!

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

"The soul needs beauty for a soulmate"
-used in both Always and A Man and A Woman.

I noticed that today when I could finally listen to the CD - very cool.

always became beautiful day

if you notice, edge still says "always" each stanza of beautiful day as a backing vocal.. sounds like hes saying "aah-aah-aah-ah" but it really is "aah-aah-all-ways"


another thing i noticed, vocals of yahweh remind me of always
