This is apparently the remastered version I'm listening to. It sounds like it was made in 1987 instead of 1981. Well done, Universal.

One more for Ashley:

Have I ever subjected you to a live performance of "Sledgehammer"?

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

: Oh lord, loosen my lips.


And He did. Thanks Jesus. Now we have to listen to him

No, and there better not be chickens!

 

[Axver]

I hope LM agrees that Gloria is pretty ... cracking.

Gloria's CRAZY

Beats it sounding like it was made in 2007.

Wait, wait, I should say that how all 2007 producers must talk:

BEATS IT SOUNDING LIKE IT WAS MADE IN 2007!

No chickens...



Just...


...Pelvic thrusts.

His sledgehammer is his penis?

 

[Axver]

The solos and final chorus of Gloria are easily two of the best minutes of music in my collection.

And bring back some nice nostalgia too!

I first read this as "Beat It sounds like it was made in 2007" and thought you were going on about some remastered Michael Jackson. I was confused.

You didn't know that?

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL DOWN

15d

 

[LemonMelon]

When I fall down, I fall down. And when I fall down, I'm falling down.

:tokes: Good shit.



PIANO

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

You didn't know that?

I DO BUT IT FRIGHTENS ME.

Also it's now a Whedon reference.

 

[Axver]

Hey folks, I didn't catch the title of this second song. Do you have any idea what it might be?

I'm starting to suspect it might have something to do with being unable to maintain balance ...?

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I broke my cell!

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Adam's grumbly bass solo is respectable.

 

[bono_212]

I've learned many things from music.

From U2, I've learned that when I fall down, I'm falling down.

From Bruce Springsteen, I've learned that when I'm alone, I ain't nothing but alone.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

When I fall down, I fall down. And when I fall down, I'm falling down.

:tokes: Good shit.



PIANO

I like this commentary thing you're doin'.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Bono says that when he's falling down is when I'm falling down? Is he gonna knock me over when he falls?

 

[Axver]

Adam's grumbly bass solo is respectable.

I vote in favour of MOAR BASS SOLOS.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I THREW A BRICK
I THREW A BRICK
I THREW A BRICK THROUGH A WINDOW

Vandilism!

 

[Axver]

Bono says that when he's falling down is when I'm falling down? Is he gonna knock me over when he falls?

He's a clumsy tosser. I think he's about to put something through a window, in fact.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Bono never stops talking. Truth.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

He's a clumsy tosser. I think he's about to put something through a window, in fact.

He's walking into walls too.

 

[Axver]

Bono never stops talking. Truth.

You can see why they don't play instrumentals live, huh?

 

[LemonMelon]

Bono says that when he's falling down is when I'm falling down? Is he gonna knock me over when he falls?

He causes minor earthquakes when he falls, so he kind of takes us all down with him.

Love this line:

"And my reflection, when I thought about it... my direction: going nowhere, going nowhere"
