Oh Berlin is 100% new vocals. Like Wave of Sorrow on JT reissue.

Originally posted by yeah:Newish Bono to me. Apart from that, it has new backing vocals and I doubt that they'd only renew that...and the translation of the Rilke poem Bono cites dates from 2001...

Boom, Cha. Touchè.

Kindergarten is AMAZING. Just now getting my first listen at this.

I'm not enjoying the 'baby' Love Is Blindness that much... I like the musical part but where's the passion in the vocals.

I didn't care for the baby EBTTRT, and One was just a little different...only on UTEOTW now. Honestly, the best part about it is the revelation that they really did know what they were doing with these songs. The AB versions are much better, its just cool to hear how different some of these songs started. Their ability to evolve these songs into what they became on the album is really neat.

Would have been clever to call the Kindergarten album "Baby Achtung".

No. you simply replace the original vocal track (if there was one) with another one.
Heaven and hell also has new vocal, right. Also Oh Berlin.

And still that's nothing new for U2. Remember Wave of Sorrow

There is a difference. These were formed version musically. Mostly mixes and Bono lyric changes.
Do we even know if Wave of Sorrow had vocals and just wasnt
A musical piece?

Have to agree with that one.

Threw together a really simple artwork for Kindergarten so that I don't have to use the AB artwork 5 times over in my music library for this reissue.

Nice pun. Nice cover. Hope you don't mind if I use it for my own copy.
