I haven't posted on the board for a while, but this new album and the promo appearances have got my U2 fandom revved back up again. I am LOVING the performances of 'Every breaking wave'. This is some of the greatest performances from U2 I've ever heard, and I'm blown away by Bono's voice...

So obviously its a new recording of 'Gone' on this compilation, and a new sort of mix too. Definitely superior. When the song crashes in after the guitar pattern, it really hits you, and Bono's vocals are much better in it. So my question is: when did they re-record and remix this new version...

Great lyrics. 'So cruel' is lyrically, one of the best off AB. Other biting lyrics, from the same album, from 'One'. 'You ask me to enter' 'But then you make me crawl' Thats biting for sure. Someone, maybe a lover, some one thats important to your life, asks you to enter, or re-enter...

18-23 1. Achtung Baby 2. The Joshua Tree 3. How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb

Well said Rachel. I would have to agree with you on that. I was even like that with 'Achtung baby'. Once the album was over the first time I played it, I said 'I like it, I'm intrigued to play again'. Now its my favourite U2 album (but thats no surprise considering its greatness). Update on...

I haven't listened to much of October. Mind you, I've only listened to Zooropa, Pop, and Passengers on Youtube. When I was just starting out as a U2 fan and only had the U2 18Singles compilation and HTDAAB, Zooropa and Pop were both widely on sale in my top local CD shop, but I didn't have much...

I can't think of any other band or artist I listen to with a massive catalogue where some songs don't grab me straight away...but slowly grow on me. I find I'm liking almost everything. I never really warmed to Zooropa, Pop, some tracks on No line on the horizon, and Passengers. But now I LOVE...

Haha like all of us aye :laugh: I'm a bit pleased with myself now. I practiced the song ready for a local fundraiser show and decided to drop it from its original key of A sharp minor to G minor. Works an absolute charm! I can get the whole thing a lot easier! :D

Woa thank you very much for those links and suggestions....I think I'm going to have a lot of fun. Awesome stuff :D And yes Andrew, that is true. Springsteen's concerts are just the absolute pinnacle of rock and roll shows. But I am really appreciating the energy of U2's shows lately. There's...

I'm a singer myself, and I LOVE singing 'Beautiful day'. It works for both the audience I play to and me. The song is well known, and I get the chance to belt out some really big notes. I love how Bono has sang 'touch me' on the last couple of tours. Its amazing. You get that hiccup in your...

I'm not new to U2. I am aware of their impressive back catalogue in music, and have checked out stuff on youtube and have all their dvds except Elevation Boston, Vertigo Milano, and ZooTV Sydney which I plan to get, Popmart Mexico I really don't know about getting. I have checked out some of...

Okay, some questions for the OP Moo Moo. How old are you? Where abouts do you live? What musical experience do you have? Even though I'm only 20, in my pursuit of a musical career, I've learnt some valuable things about what to do in getting together a band. Luckily, I didn't really have...

Being a huge promoter of my own originals myself, it is fucking annoying trying to push your originals out there that you have a lot of faith in, when the crowd just wants to hear the same old covers that you have played a gazillion times before. And thats the usual drunk bar crowd too. I have a...

I'm new to this board, and I'd like to bring my perspective to what was a dormant thread. You have to remember that Bono is now 50 years old. With the amazing lyrics that he wrote as a younger man, time has passed and different experiences have shaped his life. It happens in every musician...

Hello U2 fans. My name is Scott Haigh, I'm 20 years old, and live in the island state of Tasmania in Australia, just under Victoria where Melbourne is, a hot spot of U2's live shows I do believe? I've been a bit of a U2 fan since I bought their 18 singles compilation in early 2007 and just fell...
