La Maga Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 L Maga you're so lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... that concert run me into tears ( well not that much, but is one of the fews that excited me)....... and where the streets have no name.... I mean besides Mother of the ...... and all that political staff.... it was the best of the concert ...... Sorry for my delay.... I cannot enter always so I'm slow---- yes, I went actually to that particular show, the first one, the one which Madres de Plaza de Mayo attended. It was so moving... That song is written to the mothers of the dissappeared, the mothers of people taken away by the government (dictatorships of course) for political issues... well, in Argentina, there were like 30000 of those in the period 1976-1983, which the dictatorship of that time called 'dissappeared'... and Bono & co. invited some of those mothers who lost their sons to the show... it was quite a touching moment... I remember seeing Bono on TV talking to one of those mothers and being surprised by her statement: 'we were born by our children' which is sadly true... they got together and built an organisation, Madres de Plaza de Mayo, to fight for justice, to remember... and U2 paid tribute to them in that show.

La Maga Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 Yea' date=' I felt that some songs were missing. Like..... A Sort Of Homecoming. That song is amazing.[/quote'] I totally agree. It's just amazing. ... I AM COMING HOME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 All That You Can't Leave Behind was good. Certainly not their best. But it was better than some of their other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternly Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 All That You Can't Leave Behind was good. Certainly not their best. But it was better than some of their other stuff.If I we don't count like 3 or 4 song yes it is.... but the others cd's are certainly much better.... I mean ATYCLB is done after what 20 years singing or more...... I would expect somenthing better............ but anyway is not bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 yea. Well the only song I didn't like on All That You Can't Leave Behind is Peace ON Earth, that one gets annoying. I hope Bono does a good job on the next cd. The Edge should do some awesome guitar work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Zooropa, that's a brilliant cd. Very under rated and overlooked by people I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternly Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Just like Pop.............. they say it's not a good cd (with Zooropa) but I thnk they're really good...... even tho I prefair War Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 I haven't heard October. Is that one good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternly Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 It's good, but not that much. I can listen the whole cd, but I think is not like Axtung B. that you can listen to it over and over again and is still good............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
