Hi all,

I'm the creator of that video, and I'm pretty sure it is part of the Salome sessions.
This particular one is a track from the 7-cd set. (Number 4 on the 4th cd)

What makes you so unsure of whether or not this is from the Axtung Beibi outtakes?
 
It is from the Axtung Beibi Outtakes. Sick for Love (Woman) is track 10 on disc 2 of Salome: The Axtung Beibi Outtakes. It's also the same as Back Mask U2, track 2 on disc 3.

Track 4 on disc 4 (technically of the Hansa Ton Outtakes, not Salome: The Axtung Beibi Outtakes) is also called "Backmask U2," the fourth track on that disc with that title. It is essentially the same as Track 2 on disc 3 (Sick for Love (Woman)), but longer.

The problem, of course, is that since these are fan-created names, there are some aberrant names floating about. I once saw one of these songs called "Montgomery's Visit." Who knows where that song title came about!!

Also unfortunate is that in most instances of a song having multiple versions, the versions all have the same title; however, for some instances (i.e., Sick for Love & Back Mask U2), different versions of the same song have different titles---even within the same compilation.

"Salome: The Axtung Beibi Outtakes" was technically only the 3-disc set. "The Hansa Ton Outtakes" is either the entire 7-disc set or only the final 4 discs of the seven, I'm not sure.

Here are the titles that I have for the tracks on all 7 discs:

Could anyone upload these ?

thanks,

dig through old "Music On The Internet" threads. There's a with all the discs on it in there. I don't have the time to find it at the moment, but I might be able to look for it later.
 
This song is just greatness and deeply emotional. I just love it. I wish they could write such songs these days...SICK FOR LOVE...beautiful :bow:
 
Sick for Love contains som lyrical elements of So Cruel, Ultraviolet...the general vibe of the demo imo reminds me on So Cruel...yes i just read it on the youtube info:

Sick For Love (Back Mask U2)
When the night turns mean on you,
And the day is dry,
And there's no water around,
And you can't see the road ahead,
You can only see her

White and alive.
She's laughing in the face of love.
Your love is white and alive.
This is your last chance in my dreams.
In my dreams she stands over me.
Surrounded on all sides,
She has taken the higher ground.
And I'm the willing victim of her love.
And faith my favorite drug,
And faith my favorite drug,
I'm sick for love.
Sick for her love.
Sick foods you sell.
Just the sight of you makes me wobble.
I can't see straight, walk or talk to anyone else.
I can't even talk to you.
White and alive.
I'm laughing in the face of your face.
White and alive.
Sick for love.
Sick for love.
So, between the horses of love and lust
I'm trampled underfoot.

You're so ?? to your soul
drowining drunk on your love
And for a while you make me dizzy
And every beat of your heart
like the flapping wings of an angel
your heart beats
your heart beats
So long
So long
So long
so that was the pain?
mhm
So that was goodbye
mhm
And beauty makes us blind
mhm
(Bonogolease)

??? on the sunrise
And there she was
to high anymore
Your dark and cluttered heart.
And there's a quietness
That comes to this house
Where nobody can sleep.
She looks at her man
like he was a child
Waiting for the wave
