U2/Coldplay

LOWELL. I had a feeling you were doing something like this.
If I didn't have to work tomorrow I'd stay up all night playing like this.
Why are all my friends nightcrawlers.

<- Tears stream, down my face.

You don't have to go to work!

I hope everyone wants to sound like U2 more good music around. No emo shit.

I meant to quote this on my last post

GibsonGirl, will you and your Tim Curry icon marry me?
P.S. - I was going to continue our Coldplay fun but my internet died on me.



I anxiously await our next internet comment orgy.

IMO Coldplay doesn't even sound like U2. The guitar, yes, sounds like the edge (on most songs) but other than that, it just sounds like coldplay. Coldplay makes me feel depressed.

 

[SunBloc]

No! Is this another Mercy thread!!!

 

[*sofia*]

^ no, this is a U2 vs. Coldplay thread.



... I'm not fond of Coldplay bashing, though, because I happen to like most of their stuff...

I'll shut up now, ok? Let this thread diiiiie before it evolves any further.

 

[SunBloc]

No. Back to the subject, the Coldplay song, "Things I don't Understand" sounds a lot like Mercy....

 

[*sofia*]

Am I the only one who thinks the song title "Things I don't uderstand" is crap?

And it does sound a lot like U2.. I mean the song, not the name of the song.

 

[LMP]

I you

 

[bono_212]

Mercy? I feel real dumb...but what cd is that on...I must have heard the song before...but obviously it's not coming to me.


Please bare with me...my brains not working I'm real stressed right now.

Mercy isn't on any CD. It hasn't been officially released by U2 in any form. A fan got a copy of it through a HTDAAB CD that was given to her by someone else. How the person who gave that CD to her came across it in the first place is a little murky. But anyway, yes, it's an unreleased track that Bono claims is one of the best B-sides they've ever written. Or something like that, you can't really keep up with Bono's hyperboles.

Oh, and we all downloaded it a while ago. 90% of the board thinks it's the best thing since the cheese grater.

 

[bono_212]

I'm real sad now....there already enough RELEASED u2 songs i don't know ;(

 

[impy13]

I'm not a Mercy lover (not completely), but that's what I wanted to start singing when I listened to that Coldplay intro.

"I was drinking some wine
And it turned to blood..."
