U2 - Boy Falls From The Sky
 Era:
2010-2019
  1. Originally posted by goldy:So, I was listening to Dirty Day in the car driving to school today - and Edge's solo at the end of if is exactly the same as the main riff in Boy Falls From the Sky - just more distorted and funky while the BFFTS is more clean mainstream and rocky. Seriously go listen and see.


    Damn, you're right
  2. I really like it, but I don't know if I'd like U2 playing it. The GMA version is cool...curious to see how it would play out in a live show, if they could make that work. There would have to be be two guitars, one for the punch in the chorus, and Edge to be able to do the Dirty Day riff.

    Good catch, btw, that's totally like exactly the same riff.
  3. they played boy falls from the sky in portugal, throws open the door for us to hear all of the songs now i rekon


  4. I hope not. Wouldn't be fair towards the actors from the musical imo.
  5. Originally posted by Doc32:Awesome song. Hope u2 plays it someday. I think i like it on first listen more than everything new they've played except for Every Breaking Wave.


    ask and you shall recieve


  6. haha if it means we get more new material then i honestly dunt care about the actors


  7. Truly awesome!
  8. FREAKING WOW!!!

    Really liked this beach clip a few years back, this is brilliant, just the whole feel of the song, the riffs.
  9. Gotta say, the demo version and the Reeve Carney version were nothing special. Wasnt particularly feeling it at all - just seemed like a typical mainstream rock song.

    But when the boys play it live, its something else! So much energy and power in it. Once they rehearse it a bit more and Edge sorts out his noticeable errors, this could be a totally kick ass live song

    Ya i used to like the Reeve version, now when you listen to it again after hearing U2 play it
  11. Originally posted by yeah:Not very surprising that the debut song is Boy falls from the sky, but still a really promising tune. Would love to hear that one performed by U2 (no, not as Beach Clip).


    Thanks guys. Nice one.


  12. Yep, that's what i said. Everybody will compare the actors to U2 and that's not really fair i think...
    Maybe they'd better wait until the broadway shows are done to play them live ?
