WORST song survivor: champion!!

[timothius]

Favourite authenticity of The Edge, 1 day, two options.

 

[Axver]

Alright, so what's the next survivor series! Anyone?

I'll do best non-single if you want ...

 

[Queen Bee]

Bor-ing

"The more you know, the less you know"

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

favourite song with the word "the" in the lyrics?

 

[timothius]

"You're love is a lightbulb, that gets passed around"

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

what about a non-U2 one: best tim-tam typo?

 

[timothius]

It could go for decades.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

we'd have to keep adding things since you seem to make a typo every third post!

 

[Queen Bee]

The Bono lyric flub series would be a staple to this survivor thingy

Sorry. Maybe if I didn't bother capitalizing at the begining of each sentance I would have more time to focus on my grammar.

So far we have

"The more you know, the less you know"
"Your love is a lightbulb that gets passed around"
"Early Morning April 4...."

How many more do you really have?

ouch! that hurts!

"Early Morning April 4...."

"Unos, dos, tres, quince!"

"The TV is still on, but the TV's turned down"

"Walk on, walk on - have you got the lyrics? This ought to be good"

And like a million more I can't remember at the moment

 

[timothius]

I think some sort of lyrical one would be good. Either gaffs, or worst lyrics... you know "heavy as a truck" kinda stuff.

 

[Queen Bee]

But how to limit everything down to 30 for the poll option. I'm telling you though, this thing could last for the next two years. Bono's so senile

 

[Axver]

Sorry. Maybe if I didn't bother capitalizing at the begining of each sentance I would have more time to focus on my grammar.

I manage to do just fine with capitalisation, other elements of grammar, and spelling. Why not you? WHY?

"Free at last, they took your pride, they could not take your pride" is a favourite of mine.

Oh, and how can we forget "I'm ready for the ac-ro-bat, I'm ready for the ball and the ... bat"?

i guess grammar wasn't taught in auckland

 

[Queen Bee]

Isn't there also a line in Desire or Angel of Harlem he would always screw up in concert

 

[MacPhistoPT]

"and the fever when I'm INSIDE her"
"it was a cold and wet december day, at the suicide of JFK"

 

[Queen Bee]

Keep these coming, guys

COBL in Lisbon, 14th August

"The more you know, the less you steal, some pray for others steal"

 

[Zoots]

at the Bono goof-ups!!! I'm all for Worst goof-up grouped... by album maybe... or tour?

 

[Axver]

A minor one: "And today the millions die/We eat and drink while tomorrow they die"

 

[beau2ifulday]

Poor Bono. He probably thinks we don't pick up on these things to this extent. Yet here we are, adequately amused by his extensive goofup back catalogue.

 

[Lemonfix]

"and the fever when I'm INSIDE her"

Actually, I think that was the original lyric to the song, they were advised to change it to have less of a sexual conotation. So while it was changed on the album Bono often sings the original verse in concert.

that's also how it was sung in the movie rattle and hum, and i believe that version was recorded before the version appearing on the album.

Don't forget,

"When you get to the top you go back to the top of the slide...."

 

[cobl04]

A lyric survivor would be very good. Album by album. And give Axver a chance to do non-single! Its better than sitting here complaining that we don't have one. I'd love a best lyrics, album by album.

BONO:
1998-1999: The Post-Pop Pre-U2000 Look(can't think of a better name, see VH1 Legends special)
