he's biting hands just like during elevation. maybe they are the same songs.
 
Is it just because we haven't had live U2 for a looong time or is it because me has drunk waaaaaay to many guiness or was that TOTP/Vertigo vid the second coming....da bomb indeed!
 
Sounded to me that Bono was doing Karaoke. Singing over the pre-recorded version of Vertigo. Am I the only one?

Unless that was just a near perfect duplication of the studio song.
 
prerecord

it definitely sounded prerecorded.. just like the Clarence Hotel rooptop on TOTP last time..

just saw that atu2.com posted a little story and they said Bono was the only one live, as the rest was "prerecorded"

HOT! FIVE SONGS TOP THE POPS
October 15, 2004
posted by: m2
U2 did a 5-song set in London tonight for the BBC program "Top of the Pops."

Vertigo
All Because Of You
Desire
Mystery Girl
City of Blinding Lights

Bono was the only one performing live during "Vertigo" -- the music was a pre-recorded track, just like in 2000 when Bono was the only one "live" when U2 did "Beautiful Day" for Top of the Pops. The band did an abbreviated version of "Mystery Girl". Bono played guitar during "City of Blinding Lights."

The BBC has a brief videoclip of "Vertigo". Use the link....
 
It even has that "hum" or "hiss" at the beginning.

That's the album version, and they probably had two live mikes, Bono's ovisouly and I think Edge had a live mike too, saying hola and donde esta
