Bono has a grand voice and I love when U2 adds popular snippets to their live songs, just to hear their interpretation (which is usually much better than the original). Here's my wish list for the next concert: What's yours?
Beautiful Day: (Broadway/ Goo Goo Dolls)
end of song "...Daaaaaaaaaay. Say you'd love to run home but you know you ain't got one, cause you're living in a world that's best forgotten, It was a Beautiful Day...."
Staring at the Sun: (Like a Virgin/ Madonna)
very beginning of song:
"I made it through the wilderness,Somehow I made it through,Didn't know how lost I was,Until I found you
I was beat incomplete,I'd been had, I was sad and blue,
But you made me feel,Yeah, you made me feel Shiny and new...
I'm not the only one, staring at the sun..."
One: (Your Song/ Elton John)
very end end of song:
Knocking at my door, oo-oo-oo-oooooo-oo. And you can tell everyone, that this is your song. I know it's quite simple but, now that's it's done, I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind, that I put down in words, how wonderful life is with you in the world.
Trying to throw your arms: (Inner Smile/ Texas)
middle of song:
"...like a man need a bicycle, your trying to throw your arms around the world. Gonna run to you, run to you, run to you, woman be still, gonna run to you, run to you, run to you, woman be still. So if I lose my patience, you must try to understand. And If I lose my patience, oh yeah. You make me feel wild. You touch my inner smile. Cause I'm trying to throw my arms around the world" This would really showcase Bono's voice, IMO!!
(In your Eyes/ Peter Gabriel)
middle of song:
"...give it away. She's living like it's the last night on Earth... (guitar interlude) .Love, I don't like to see so much pain. So much wasted, and this moment keeps slipping away, slip sliding, it's like we're slipping away...She's living, living next week now"
I can hear it in my mind now, but It probably sounds bad on paper, lol
