It might be a stretch to say that. The quality of the beach clip is shitty enough to distort one's perception of what it actually sounds like. Did you ever hear the beach clip for Miracle Drug?
Or All Because of You?

The Magnificent clip, like all the clips, is from the beginning.
Or All Because of You?
MOST of the clips are obviously not from the beginning.... We KNOW Get on Your Boots isn't.....
Well f&$k off and read a different thread a$$hole. Coz this one's about discussing the 30 sec clips. ALL of it's is speculation. That's why I started by saying "first impression". Didn't say it was "fact".

Oh wait... did you mean Beach clip? My bad......
Boots' sample is 0:45-1:15 so its likely that the other clips are also cut from that section of the song.
U2 totally ripped off $ting's Desert Rose from Brand New Day by recording in Morocco and using Arabic musicians and now the whole album's going to sound the same.
Not right at the beginning, but early in the song. By the sound of it most seem to start somewhere between the 15 second mark and the 45 second mark.

Well, I wanted to read everyone's reaction, but this thread is way too freakin' long already.
My initial reaction...
This stuff is pretty damn good; however, where is this innovative record we've been promised so many times? Ah, perhaps I'm reacting too quickly to clips that are only 30 seconds long.

haha, yeah, I know
some people were disappointed by the Magnificent clip though cause they thought they changed it too much from the beach clip version, and I'm mainly just saying that I'm sure they haven't changed it too much and that when we get the full song it will have all the awesomeness we hear in the beach clip
what is "sucking them marrow"?? I believe i'm doing this too! I think this album is going to be great!
That being said, the feel of this album is unique. They took the craziness of Zooropa, the swagger of Rattle & Hum/Achtung Baby and the pictures that Bono painted in Joshua Tree and put it into a single album.
If you listen carefully you can hear him singing "magnificent" in the very beginning of the beach clip.
Yeah, I had noticed that "White as Snow" sounded much like a Christmas carol. I can't say that's a good thing. Then again, snow is associated with christmas and winter, so I guess that's the sound they're going for.
Stand Up Comedy sounds like Matchbox 20,
You must be listening to some depressing carols...
I don't think we'll ever see that "innovative" record. Not just from U2 but from other successful mainstream bands. Theres not much more new ground to break with a standard 4 piece band.
...
On an aside, when I play a video game I don't worry if its innovative, when I watch a movie I don't worry if its innovative, when I read I book I don't worry if its innovative. If its a solid piece of work and I enjoy "consuming" it then its something that I consider is good.
