Celerity, actually.

 

[ImOuttaControl]

Celerity, actually.

You're still going on about that eh? Being that the lyrics say celebrity, and bono clearly says "celebrity" on the album, the Brooklyn Park bootleg, and most clearly on the acoustic performance at the unveiling of the U2 Ipod, I'd say it's undoubtedly celebrity. Also, bono likes reminding people he's a celebrity (read his speaches), so it makes sense.

You're imagining a 'b' in the Brooklyn Bridge gig. That is so 'celerity' it's not funny. Bono completely fails to pronounce any kind of 'b' there.

Haven't listened to the iPod unveiling in ages, though. But 'celerity' makes more sense than 'celebrity' as 'smiling' and 'crying' are actions while 'celebrity' is not.

I won't hijack this thread...you had a thread about this a while back didn't you? I'll try to find it and tell you you're wrong there instead of here.

 

[popacrobat]

it's definitly celebrity, all the lyric sites/book says it is, in addition to hearing the b.

and yes, it makes sense not to be too good at celebrity, not getting hung up in everything with the glitz and the glamor and whatnot

 

[bedouin fire]

can i still vote?

 

[Yahweh]

i voted waiting to see the results

 

[namkcuR]

i voted waiting to see the results

I forgot to announce the end of voting yesterday...that is my fault, and as such voting is extended until 3:30 PM today...that is, you have one hour and 3 minutes left. I will tally the votes and post them later today or tomorrow(more likely today).
