1. ^ what does he play it on nowadays?

  2. Fernandes Retrorocket, similar (if not the same) model as that which he uses for WOWY, not the same guitar though because the two songs are in different keys played on differently tuned guitars
  3. sounds nowadays even better than during certain zoo tv shows. during the amsterdam gigs there were many fans people who hadnt had a clue what was going on during this song though.

    Anyone know what Bono sings instead of "I guess it's the price of love, I know it's not cheap?" in the second verse?
  5. Echoing what dieder said, I agree, it does sound better these days, but also the stuff about some people not really knowing what was going on - guess some of us are just bigger U2 freaks than others

    Aha, me and Juraj were discussing that the other day, I'm fairly sure it's the same sort of thing (or at least very similar each time) but I'm buggered if I know what he's yacking on about lol...Bono, that is, not Juraj

    It does sound like he changes it up a bit each time, but I'm stuffed if I know what it is.

    It sounds like ''The price is the price of something and I know it's not cheap''. I heard it on either the third Croke show or Chorzow.

    Has he completely forgotten what it is there?

    But if you listen to Barc 1 it's sounds like something completely different. It sounds like he's stuttering.


  9. Probably making up something and it sounds like gibberish.
  10. He probably doesnt know what to sing there, or he just disliked the original lyric but doesnt know yet how to change it properly. The only thing I miss during Ultra Violet is that Bono used to sing 'O come on' before 'baby baby baby, light my way' But apart from that it's fabulous.
  11. Having listened to a few versions, and in particular the Sheffield performance, I think, and maybe it's the basis for the others ones, that he's singing "I guess that the price is the price worth paying but I know it ain't cheap" or "...I know it don't come cheap", at least it's something along those lines - anyone else got anything different yet lol?
