  1. I've been waiting the whole morning for someone to post something that deserved this pic as an answer, but I didn't find it so... general chat, way to go
  2. I'll edit my above post so that I deserve it.^

  3. Haven't done much with it and not sure where to go next, yet with it.

    Nobody in sight and nary a bump in the night
    Nor any noise 'cept for a busker with no well-earned applause
    The bricks were still and the movement was nil
    Wind absent and the warmth heaven-sent
    Two friends uninterested in the night's end
    Sounds of arriving feet, the few left to disipitate
    Taken by winds of change in the distance

    One lonely soul singing to survive with his money bowl
    Looking to sing another day, through another day
    Sing for the moment, sing for the soul, sing to achieve his goal
    Of that he just can't fathom another day of famine

    Young child lost on the street corner, miles from home
    Lost, so alone, broken and aching, cold and shaken
    She weeps whilst the unaware city sleeps
    In their own dreams.


    I think I'll leave it as that...it's more a spoken poem than a song. I think I'll record it.
  4. Go for it! Great words.

  5. Do you think I should leave it as that?

    I might do it with Beautiful Ghost in the background.


  6. That's your choice If you think you can make it better, go for it, but be aware of overdoing it. Do what you think is the best for the song

    I think I'll try to record one of my songs later, if I can get my voice to wake up and sound decent.

  10. 4 / 10. It may be hard to hear me speaking in it as I've kept it a poem not a song.


    OK, it deserved it.

    I've always found Acrobat the weakest Achtung track followed by One and then Even Better - but even with those three, it's a brilliant album if not one of the best I've ever heard (and I've played hundreds of full albums!). But then Zooropa and Original Soundtracks came along, three and five years before I was a fan, and I listen to those a lot more lately for some reason. Although if we didn't have One, we wouldn't have U2 and have this place.

    Original Soundtracks is a masterpiece.
  11. I thought so too some time ago, but I slowly realize the beauty of Acrobat, that guitar work!

  12. It's not a bad song though. It's great but the brilliance of Achtung, something's gotta be weakest and that's the one for me. On a good day it's One that's the weakest.

    One of my favourites is Levitate. Beautiful song.
