1. Oh dear.

    I'm really thinking of not visiting threads like this anymore.

    You're cringing at ONE wrist band? WTF? I even can't see anything except white wrist band. Were you cringing at the white flag during War Tour?

    It's just what U2 has been about since ever.

    The video is coming up, and everyone gets excited. Then video comes, and then we get:
    a) oh fuck, there's band in it (!!)
    b) oh fuck, there's white wrist band on singers arm (!!!)
    c) oh fuck, there's poor African people in it, poor African people tend to fuck up our bootlegs
    d) oh fuck, beach clip was better
    e) oh fuck, my brother burned my pajamas.



    Can't you people just enjoy in something? Have you ever tried to write some good lyrics or music? If you did, then you'd probably know it's damn hard. And they're still damn good at it.
  2. The video is okay, but I already stated before that I don't care that much about video's and clips.

    Damn straight that is.

    I love it, the only minus I can think of is Bono looking straight into the camera. Not a good idea. But the whole atmosphere is just cool.
  4. From what I've read in this topic, 90% of the people like the video.
    You just have to live with the fact, that there's some guys who don't go crazy when something has a U2 label.

    No, some guys just don't go (negatively) crazy when they see ONE label.

    i'll enjoy it if I like it. I think it's ok. No more than that. Different fans expect different things from the band. Simple. No drama, no 'oh fuck'


  8. Yep. That's true. And it's also always the same who are pissed when someone doesn't put on their U2 glasses.
  9. Is one of Bono's daughters in the video? At 1:39 it may look like Eve Hewson?

    kinda weird to find these people on a u2 forum, eh?
  11. @ Yogi:_O_ THANK YOU!
    Seriously, people have just pissed all over it rather than be at least grateful that they are still together What is there to not like about the song or the video?

    I LOVE the new video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to get it on the iPod...
