    Ah. That's not too bad 7:50 at night over here
    Live from Boston is great, Rattle and Hum is good, POPMart from Rotterdam (With Please leading into it) is fantastic ZOO TV Dublin is great too Hope that helps

    Dan says Sydney is the best performance and most of the others think Slane is fantastic.

    Sydney sounds good so far.

    I'll have a listen to your other suggestions.

    But I don't like the 'love, love, love' part at the end of all live performances of Streets, are there any that don't?

    Ahh, without the Love part? I dunno. I like that extra tidbit, so I've never really looked for one without it. Maybe at the beginning of the JT tour they didn't have it, because they might have still been getting used to playing it. I honestly don't know lol

    Yeah, I was looking at some JT performances but they all had the love bit or a similar vocalisation. I like the repeated 'our love turns to rust/ blowing in the wind' verse on the album version (which he sings at the top of his voice).

    I don't think they've ever performed that part, sadly It's a shame, because it sounds lovely


  7. Yes, I think the album version is so good, because of its difficult birth:

    While recording the song as a band, however, they ran into difficulty. The song's frequent chord and time changes caused problems in playing the song correctly; the difficulty was so great that producer Brian Eno attempted to erase the track.


  8. Yeah, and then someone had to practically tackle Brian to stop him


  9. Lol, probably Larry.

    I was watching that making of the JT documentary and they were talking about it.

  10. I really think the only person who could take Larry in a fight is Clint Eastwood Larry scares the shit out of me
    Yeah, I watched that one, very interesting

    2.Breathe
    3.Cedars of Lebanon-WOW, is all I can say
    4. No Line on the Horizon-what a great opener, I love Bono's voice on it
    5.Moment of Surrender-I love this song, it's so beautiful, and it only took one take!
    6.White as Snow- Took a while to catch on, but now I love it (French Horns are nice to )
    7.FEZ-Being Born-U2 needs to do more songs like this
    8.I'll Go Crazy if I have to type out this whole title-Nice catchy pop song, but I don't want a whole album of it
    9.Stand Up Comedy- I love this! It's an awesome Zep-like song, and Led Zep are gods, so combining them with U2 is always good
    10.Magnificent-the intro is the best part, but it's not a bad song in the least
    11.Get On Your Boots-This is a great song, and I think it shows how wonderful this album is when I think it's the worst one on there lol
