Come on, why is the Crazy remix making it?? They released it on the remix CD through U2.com just 2 years ago. Do we need ANOTHER copy of that? Why? I can almost "get" if you didn't vote for Electrical Storm because you do not like the song. But voting for Crazy Tonight when they just released it 2 years ago, through the same subscription makes no sense.
Because it is a great song. And because it's also possible to vote for Crazy Tonight AND Electrical Storm (and still have 20 votes for other rare tracks). That's what I did. As many of the rarities as possible (though in the end In A Little While was not included in my votes), plus some other great songs (Streets).
the version of moment of surrender on wide awake in europe is phenomenal... why do we need another one in place of something we don't have? baffling.
Well, as a big collector of U2 stuff, mainly on CD, I want to have Moment Of Surrender included. There isn't an official live version yet on CD.
I'm do not feel I'm wasting my time because I'm venting about something that is very frustrating to me as an avid U2 audio collector. I realize there is nothing I can do about it other than my single votes. It was just an incredible oppurtunity to get some unreleased stuff and it is being squandered IMO. So I'm conveying my frustration about it. Obviously a lot of people on here feel very similiar and from some of the comments on the voting on U2.com there are a lot of people that feel the same there.
I agree with this sentiment (though I'm probably not venting as much as you are ). We have this great opportunity and then it seems to be squandered. This is not a case of Interference vs. U2.com BTW (or vs. some other fan forums like @U2.com) as the two groups can be found on all fansites.
