Ok, this is going to sound absolutely nuts and probably is taking nit-picking to the extreme, but I've listened to Disc 2 of the Axtung Beibi out-takes for the first time this week and noticed something during the Wake Up Dead Man track (track 11 disc 2). At around 5 minutes a guitar sound comes in that really reminds me of the continuous guitar sound on Mercy. People will only understand this if you have both tracks, but give it a listen. Obviously the link is extremely tenuous but it made me wonder whether Edge has a few guitar sounds or loops that he keeps in mind and drags them out when the occasion calls.
Oh, and on the version of Even Better than the Real Thing, the verses sound a bit like the guitar on Big Girls Are Best.
Right, that's that put down in writing. I now prepare to be told 'no you're completely wrong', 'you're taking it too far', etc.
