played it on guitar-same chords as ultraviolet it's true, the basic chords are the same as the "baby baby baby" part near the end of ultraviolet, but that's a good thing. Actually all the chords used in Love is bigger are used at some point in ultraviolet, but that 's a good thing too. This...

My new album "OFF GRID" Hello Friends, I've been a U2 fan ever since I first heard Under a blood red sky in the 1987. A lot of U2 influences in my music, which is evident in my new guitar driven álbum. Links below: Free to stream http://jmgalie.bandcamp.com/album/off-grid

YOu were right about Levitate, I had never heard that one before, first class track. My awesome album now goes like this: 01)are you gonna wait forever? - (energetic guitar driven opener - zoo station...) 02)holy joe (guilty mix) - this is the "Even better" of this album... with a similar...

Just to share a compilation which I've made which flows very well from beginning to end, and makes an awesome U2 album. Some good songs were left out to keep it short, Winter for example is off because I have it as an album track on NLOTH, anyway it's open for debate... 01)are you gonna wait...

Two of the biggest albums (in terms of art) of the 90's. Most popular magazine rankings show both albums in high positions, Rolling stone's 500 best albums of all time has achtung at position 62 while OK is at 162. At rateyourmusic.com the difference is kind of ridiculous, Ok computer comes in...

I know I'm a bit late to this topic, playing the producer can be fun so here's my tracklist which works perfectly for me. The original tracklist to me is unlistenable unfortunately, but this one went through just fine and I´m happy that I can now sit back and enjoy NLOTH. Only 9 songs but with a...

I fully agree with this, there's something special about how the piano is used on Gone, it adds a certain drama and mixes very well with the "747 guitar effect" (thanks for pointing that out). The BEST of mix sounds more like the live version which is fine, but to me the album version has a very...

I always liked Pop because I think Flood is an awesome producer and it has interesting sonic experimentation. For example that crazed guitar line in Gone is unique and I haven't heard anything like it anywhere else. In my view it's above ATYCLB, HDAAB and NLOTH, specially when some minor...

gives me a headache. IT's at #7 I find myself putting the album on and then pressing the stop button about halfway, there's something about the production/mixes that makes my head hurt. The only song that I find is perfectly produced/mixed is Cedars of Lebanon. In terms of aural pleasure I'm...

if you had to make a 12 song compilation from 1991 onwards how would it be? AFter careful selection I chose this tracklist based on personal emotional attachment and musical quality: 1. elevation 2. gone 3. miss sarajevo 4. the fly 5. beautiful day 6. wake up dead man 7. vertigo 8. until the...

a new word for Bono, similar to beautiful, could be used as follows: You don’t know how dutiful You don’t know how dutiful you are You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you? You don’t know how dutiful you are this song would then be dedicated to their fans who spend money on concerts and...

Aside from the issues of similarity to Vertigo, I found yet another that makes the song even less original: Chorus: You don’t know how beautiful You don’t know how beautiful you are You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you? You don’t know how beautiful you are Chorus of City of Blinging...

According to some posts I've read on this forum, Boots was not a successful single, and the album is not selling as well as expected. Boots was a logical choice because it followed in the steps of Vertigo, but that is the problem, it uses the same formula as Vertigo, and Vertigo was already...

The theory is like this, NLOTH is not doing so well because of Bono's short hair. With short hair he looks kind of regular. With long hair he is Jesus, with those The Fly glasses and jacket he is God. That is the whole difference. The other album on which Bono had short hair was Pop, that one...

NLOTH better with alternate tracklist point 1, before I go on is that HTDAB sounds a lot better now than 5 years ago, at this point I see it as a solid U2 album, it's not perfect but it has lots of personality from start to finish. point 2, after a few months NLOTH is moving up the ladder...
