  1. I have always sung "drowning my sorrows" because I learnt the lyrics from my parent's Achtung Baby vynil sleeve:




    I have checked my AB's CD and the lyrics are exactly the same as on the vynil, saying "my sorrows". But hearing the album version of the song, I couldn't tell if he says my or the, although I would bet on "the". It obviously sings "my" on the live version though.

  4. Anyone else here get pissed off whenever you're listening to your favorite U2 song or getting ready to and Bono somehow manages to say something about Africa and completely detatch you from your own interpretation of the song?

    That gets on my tits.

  6. I feel like we need an eyeroll smiley.

  9. Exactly what I was insinuating, it's ambiguity is the key to its power.

    It's a bit like that scene from Frasier at the Christmas parade.

    "Coming up, a very special guest..."

    "IT'S SANTA CLAUS!"
  10. Don't want to start a new thread about this, but does anyone read graphic novels? Like Kick-Ass, Watchmen, Scott Pilgrim?

    I do, Kieran.
    What you think of Walking Dead?


  12. Not read it. Only just started getting into graphic novels.

    Currently reading the Scott Pilgrim series. Because I loved the movie so much, I just needed to read the graphic novels. Bought one today, trying to resist from reading too much, since I've already read two-thirds of it
