    WOWY was amazing in Phoenix this year. Bono is singing it in character. The newer rendition is just that; a newer rendition that is amazing once you realize what Bono's doing with it.


    alright. Pls explain what the heck he is doing with it
  2. I think there are very few people who 'get' what he is doing with it. So don't worry.


  3. yea but when somebody claims he gets it he should also explain it.
  4. ok im a singer...he's not singing it in a character. He cant hit those lows very well. He's hitting the highs at an average level, but he just cant hit the low notes very well anymore. Thy should maybe give it the Vertigo Tour treatment and play it a key higher.

    when I say vertigo tour treatment alot of the songs they had been playing went a key higher, streets, one on occasion, sbs. so maybe he just needs it to be higher.
  5. They can barely play Mofo apparently...


  6. At least Bono should be able to sing it. He could during Popmart days when he almost got his voice killed..


  7. I think they actually can, as far as instruments go they´re the best ever, as far as Bono, he´s good - great technique, voice on good days is the best since 95 and on the worst like some days of elevation. I don´t know if they are getting it the way they want, we all know how much they require from theselves.

    Well...I think as well, but therefore I dont see reasons not to play it
    Oh well

    They have trouble with Walk On methinks
  9. Also they can barely play NLOTH live, you could hear Bono straining on the studio versions so it's no wonder he's having difficulty singing it live.

    Hmm...I must admit I like the studio version a tad more than the live versions...but it still rocks live imo

    I think he does a good job on this song still. He has difficulties but the man gives it all some times.

    Best song of the new tour. It was recorded a pitch too high on the album for some reason but the have it nailed live. They could do with increasing the pause just before traffic cop thoigh
