Enjoyed the version last week on Fallon. Song took off when Bono counted in the Roots and it needs that full band sound.
'Ordinary Love' U2 performs 'Ordinary Love' from 'Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.' http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FU2Oscarsong&h=YAQElJEyV&enc=AZN5tq9Xuy1LPcFR9V2C_hZ4gw_ddJ0SGxD04Q_cw2zKlAKzdQIKgWDyyjQ7vJWs-mfUDSl5h_fI6mhAUDep-bwNUlF9xEdJ-anvITd1Q8hOfueJ2ewd3slpyzWpAxhCq9U5-nDBNuQPWN7NigIRxbBX&s=1
Oh well - my 'U2 are a certainty to win the Oscar' prediction wasn't exactly spot-on!!! What an arse!!!
What a beautiful performance by all of them,, perhaps they did not win but they certainly will implant that song in many minds for many years to come if it still gets airplay like it does here My mother adores the song and says it's very melancholy
Originally posted by BelgianBono:Their performance on Fallon's was waaaaaayyy better in my opinion. Jup, especially because The Roots came in. This performance is good too, but a bit boring.
The video that has been blocked to Oscars rights is a much better sounding video, by miles, I got to listen to it before it got blocked lol..
