    try the Croke Park 2003 version. Full band with full orchestra. The best of both worlds. Bono's voice isn't as good but sure. Edges guitar is a little more prominent to on the Croke version




    I'll give it a try!
  2. Sounds better, me thinks..

    EDIT: like those DJ's talk after the song, do you speak also like that, mister Guggi? Or do you prefer 'cleaner' English?

    my accent is the Belfast accent. It's much much worse
  4. I love Irish accent Gerard. It rules much more than London's one. Even though, I didnt know there are different "Irish" accents (Belfast, Dublin?).

    oh yes they are worlds apart. My accent isn't what you'd call 'Irish'. I feckin hate it but accents mean nothing on a forum like this because you can't hear it

    It is Lord...(I think it's actually called: Do You Hear Us Coming Lord). It's a very common snippet of One, actually played at all versions, except for the Vertigo-ones.

    Anyway, is that One version with Pavarotti available somewhere?


    Yea...these few lines of lyrics add a lot more to the song, and it being Lord makes this last part pretty spiritual

    too much time in America and England meant he has no accent. He sounds Irish sometimes, then English then American

    Bono speaks global English..I always discover that when he sings BTBS..he sings it with an American tongue.

    I think Gerard cant speak Gaelic. It isnt a very usual language nowadays, although lately it's recovering some speakers (I saw a documental a few weeks ago, very nice language it is ).
