  1. sorry if I bump into the ongoing round of discussion here
    as I know there are some around here who would know this, so I'm asking... would anyone be able to tell me the chords/notes that Edge plays during the chorus part - when we all sing "oh oh oh oh... oh oh oh oh oh oh"... you know your name so punch it in etc... and then the "oh oh" comes again, and I mean the beautiful bit he plays at that part. Anyone?
    And since we're on it (at least I'm on it ) what would be the chords for the solo Edge plays? It sounds so beautiful and clear - not that I'd ever dream of being able to play that as well, but I'd like to try and find the right notes on my guitar

    Hope this is direct enough. I don't know the chords, per se, but here's what he plays...

  4. Matt, you're fantastic, thank you so much!!!


  5. No problem! Enjoy And it's really not that hard to get down sounding clear, I think once you strategize where to keep your fingers, it'll become easier and easier. Have fun
  6. Anyone know where I can get a hold of Unknown Caller (Snow Patrol Remix) because its not on youtube and I can't find it anywhere...

    Thanks....

    officially available from U2.com when purchasing Artificial Horizon on vinyl. Can't be shared here
  8. ok fair enough, don't really wanna pay $30 for one song, ha


  9. What?

    Theres a remix of UC? Is it any good, hopefully its not a dance remix.

    Was it done by Jacknife Lee, hence the Snow Patrol tag?

    The lovely people over at Interference emailed me the mix.

    Not very good at all - thankfully it wasn't very long.
    I don't get why they do all these dance/techno type remixes (rather than just an alternate arrangement of the song - like the two versions of NLOTH or Winter) I mean who actually would listen to this in a club?

    The Snow Patrol remix s*cks immensely.
    I'd rather listen to Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour)......oops, sorry!
  12. How come Bono doesn't say "Tree-Tertee-Tree" ???
