1. Didn't he mention that in passing in U2 By U2? Not sure, maybe I'm just manufacturing false memories


  2. Yes, I was at that show! Exciting and funny all at once hearing that song after MOS and how it began.

    Also, this reminded me of the East Lansing show I also went to shortly before Chicago, with another funny Edge moment: if you listen to the bootleg, at the beginning of the second verse of Elevation, Edge totally screws up and Bono tries not to react too much - his voice goes up a little bit when singing "a star, lit up like a cigar, strung out like a guitar." I still vividly remember Edge's face looking amused and concerned and Bono almost starting to laugh in surprise.

    The mistakes are the things that you won't forget about a concert
  4. Sometimes I think about the fact that the boys in the band have some lovely ladies as their partners...

    Morleigh, Ali, Ann, Mariana, beautiful women. All of them.

    Poor Mariana feels so out of place in every sense But yeah, you definitely have a point!
  6. love them
  7. Lovely picture. They're such beautiful couples!!!
  8. I bet Phil Joanou loves his One video being mislabeled as the Corbijn version on U2's VEVO channel.
  9. I always had a soft spot for Mark Pellington's version. I'd rank them: Corbijn > Pellington >> Joanou.
  10. Which Pellington version do you prefer?

    Corbijn's version is the one that I always associate with the song since I always watched it on the Best Of 1990-2000 DVD. Shame it got axed, completely understandable though.

    Buffaloes and sunflowers, all the "one" in different languages. Do you mean the other version with buffaloes only?
  12. There's an alternate "faces" cut.
