    u2 music and words

    I don't know if anyone else feels the same but i'm beginning to feel frustrated, bored and a tad worried about the procrastinated release of any material when it had been anticipated, talked up, then dropped again. I felt excited (not so much the title) by the idea of The Ascent of Man thing or...

    Bono's lyrics since POP

    Hope you won't mind me starting this Lemon Melon, your point here interested me, namely: Stayed up longer than i intended tonight so bear with me but hopefully discussion may possibly develop and be shared/expanded when i am more awake if this interests people or it may just plummet down the...

    Stand up/sit down..'comedy?'

    Obviously very subjective this but why the hell did the band think this song was so special? Why did it take (years as i understand?) an age to pranny around and tinker with to get 'right'??? They stood up, they played, they sat down, thought about it/reworked it, stood up again to play...

    Interesting Bono comment?

    This really got me thinking, don't know if anyone else has a thought on this or if it appeals to anyone or not. Seems to be a comment on the band and their ethos in general as much as the song in question. Would be interested in your perspective The song (and the album) closes with the lyric...

    u2 and being original

    Hi Folks I enjoyed reading a while back the thread about how original Achtung Baby was and perhaps u2 were in general. I found myself with lots of different thoughts and feelings about this and popped in a little of my two pence/cents etc of views for whatever they were worth. This seemed to...

    Wild Honey?

    I guess the question mark for me signifies a personal reappraisal of this song. I get the impression on this forum and speaking to other fans that this song falls between a mixture of being loathed or a "pleasant enough tune" blah, blah etc and nothing more. I would hardly say it had profound...

    U2 live (wow!) somerville theatre 2009

    Stumbled upon this link so far, watched Magnificent, Breathe and Vertigo so far. MAN ARE THE BAND AND CROWD COOKING, the band seem so wired, better than the 360 tour at times in my humble opinion. Smoking as Mr Carey might say, what do you think people? link to magnificent at this gig as one...

    NLOTH latest sales?

    I am not really fussed about album sales, some of my favourite bands have small followings. What i guess does interest and appeal to me is the concept of something that is not an instant big hit but then gathers like a slow bush fire when people find something special in it. In the UK the film...

    Cedars of Lebannon

    Hi folks Listened to this song in the middle of the night on headphones and was moved more than ever before by it's texture and beauty within the weariness and pain. I suspect i have missed an awful lot of both subtelty and power through not listening through the phones, time o rectify that i...

    Original Of the Species your thoughts?

    Hi Folks I am new to this forum and i am sure this song has been talked about before but i would love to hear individuals thoughts, feelings and personal perspectives on this song. What it means to them and perhaps how it may have evolved for you in your life since you last listened or perhaps...
