Ultraviolet (Professors Rare Song Compilation Remix)

[theFly51]

Ok...i got this song off the Apple friutleg right. Now Ultraviolet is my 2nd favorite U2 song (The Fly #1) and I thought this would be a cool remix to hear. I played it and it sounds like Lady With The Spinning Head but...there's completely differents lyrics. Also it sounds like a duet between Bono and Edge both singing different songs. It's 5:18 in length and towards the middle it starts to sound like UV but then again it has a different verse...then the LWTSH solo starts.

I cant find any lyrics or source to this remix anywhere online.

Anyone know what im talking about or is this a "haunted song"?

It's a demo from the Axtung Beibi sessions, I think it's called Take You Down but I honestly haven't listened to them for years.

Yes, what you're describing sounds exactly like Take You Down to me. I really like it. Look up Take You Down and you should find more about it.

Here's some info for you. I just remebered this site that has info on the Salome bootlegs.

FWT:

Take You Down





Notes:

This song is an early form of LADY WITH THE SPINNING HEAD, which later
evolved into ULTRA VIOLET (Light My Way). The guitar solo was used again
in THE FLY, and the bridge moved on to be used as the intro to ULTRA VIOLET
(Light My Way).

The Edge is NOT signing backup, it's Bono! The left and right channels
are different takes of Bono singing to the same backing music. Each channel
sounds quite different from the other, and the two only come together
in one or two places. The vocals are not completely isolated to the left
or right channels. In each channel you can faintly hear the other. During
the guitar solo and bridge you can only hear one vocal track (in both
channels).

Hendrix like solo, wow!

A frantic ending. This song rips! Much, MUCH better than LADY WITH THE
SPINNING HEAD.





Words?

RIGHT CHANNEL:

"Oh, wont you get it up and get

My heart in the sunlight"

"Going to the back light

Going back to the way we were

Ahh, hahh

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up dead man

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up dead man"

LEFT CHANNEL:

"They're trying to take you down"

"And out you call

You want it so

And out you call"





Bono-

"I was singing a bit late in here" (The band slows down for a bit)

"I know sometimes you get it wrong

You got to get it wrong

Sometimes you get it wrong

You take it anymore..."




(This isn't all the lyrics, but it might help you figure them out)

wow! thanks so much for this info! i would've never known it was an outtake

 

[bonocomet]

If you do get the lyrics figured out more please post them I've tried figuring them out myself but it sounds like some of it is just Bono sounds.

I'd love to hear Bono and Edge sing something like this together anyways, that would be a fantastic duet!

Good luck!

 

[theFly51]

That would be awesome! I cant belive that isn't The Edge singing backup! It sounds like him but then again Bono and Edge sound the same sometimes

i found this and the lyrics sound way more accurate:

And this take you out
You tell don't take you down
I will take you
I will take you down

Act you want to get what you're getting
I know want, take it what you wanted to
On is what, all is all
To want it to get


I look for you
All the way you cry

Endless in your guy, don't take him on
Always in your eye, I'm looking for


I take of you

Down in the bottom
Down in the bottom of wrong

Been wrong again

I'll be coming to you, yeah

We're getting warmer

Oh...
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, an uh

Stay awake, say you're back

Don't take it all

Uh huh, uh an uh
Don't say forever


Don't take it all

Sugar I'm about dance
I look down on the rest
No one have broke you down to
Too many think about you
Wanted to take you
Wanted to take you down

Ooo, do what you get it,
I can get it
My heart in the sunlight
I don't get it
You're going to the right land
Going back to the way we were


Get up...
Uh huh, uh uh

Wake up, wake up, wake up

And out you come
Wake up dead man

You wanna talk
I'll let you come...down


Wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up dead man




Bono (both channels)



Oooo, taking it out
Taking it to
Taking the zoo
And they'll be view
I'll go with you
Baby it's true


You come home the chances
You come home alone
You broke into dancing
Did you do
How come to do


Bono: "I was Singing a bit late here."

I know she wants your money
I know, so don't you...get it wrong
You got to get along
Sometimes you get it wrong
Won't taking it anymore...
