  1. Which I really wished would have been included on U22/From The Ground Up!
  2. I always thought even a snippet of Gone before or during With Or Without You would have been cool. "Goodbye/you can keep this/suit of lights/I'm not coming down..." as he let the laser jacket go.
  3. Gone definitely should come back. Bono has repeatedly said it's one of his favorites.
  5. Originally posted by RattleandHum1988:Pop has amazing tunes, they're just unfinished and poorly performed on the recordings. If only they'd go back when they have free time and rerecord everything to make it sound way better...


    NO
    NO
    NO

  6. AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT
  7. Perhaps if they'd taken a bit more time back then. But no way they should do anything now, they're another band now, since people change in 16 years, they're not meant to do Pop, but hopefully a great new record.
  8. I've said many times that Pop was an album left unfinished.

    But in retrospect, all of the "remakes" that the band have done have fallen short of the original album versions, with the exception of Please. I want to see them bring back Please.
  9. Pop is fine as it is. An unfairly maligned and under appreciated work by an excited and curious band. We'll be lucky if they produce something as interesting again. I want them to release something exciting and brilliant, but the length of time it's taking them to capture lightning in a bottle again is a bit worrying. Danger Mouse has been associated with this project for a very long time now. It seems to be taking forever to reach the finish line which can only indicate uncertainty. If they can't get an album out by the end of this year, then they should just call it a day. Nobody wants another over produced over thought bore.
  10. God, I love Pop but "Please" is shocking.
  11. Strangely and for no apparent reason POP has been my album of choice for the past 48hrs!!!

    I have a burned CD with the single versions replacing the album versions - and a few B:Sides thrown in at the end for good measure. sounds great on the old HI-FI system.

    And i agree Pop should be left alone as it is as they would only end up making a second rate album which would be absolutely slated by fans

  12. ...is "shocking" a good thing or a bad thing? Remember: I'm Canadian, Tim.

    I'm thinking a bad thing but I have (mis)used the term as a positive descriptor.

    There's no point in touching Pop now. Sure it's flawed but it still a very good record - and like many of you have said, there are several alternative versions to many songs on the actually album to make your own personal improvements.
