1. Topic for track 8 of Songs Of Experience.

    Lyrics:

    Baby's crying cause it's born to sing
    Singers cry about everything
    Still in the playground falling off a swing
    But you know that I know

    Walk through the room like a birthday cake
    When I am all lit up, I can't make a mistake
    And there's a level of shallow that you just can't fake
    But you know that I know

    Oh you don't care
    But you know I'm there

    You think you look so good
    A little more better
    Look so good
    Just a little more little more
    Look so good
    That's what's gonna get you
    Look so good
    Just a little more little more

    You know you're chasing the sunlight
    That's why I'm stayin' up all night
    You think you look so good
    A little more better
    Look so good
    A little more

    It is what it is but it's not what it seems
    This screwed up stuff is the stuff of dreams
    I got just enough low self esteem
    To get me where I want to go

    The showman gives you front row to his heart
    The showman prays his heartache will chart
    Making a spectacle of falling apart
    Is just the start of the show

    Oh you don't care
    But you know I'm there

    You think you look so good
    A little more better
    Look so good
    Just a little more little more
    Look so good

    That's what's gonna get you
    Look so good
    Little more, little more

    I'll be chasing the sunlight
    That's why I'm staying up all night
    I lie for a living, I love to let on
    But you make it true when you sing along

    You think you look so good
    A little more better
    Look so good
    Just a little more little more
    Look so good
    That's what's gonna get you
    Look so good
    Just a little more, little more

    You think you look so good
    A little more better
    Look so good
    Just a little more little more
    Look so good
    That's what's gonna get you
    Look so good
    Just a little more, little more
  2. Some info:
    There's a song called "The Showman" which is a letter to our audience, it's kind of about performers and how you shouldn't trust them too much. It's about me, haha. There's a funny line, well, I think it's funny anyway, "I lie for a living, I love to let on but you make it true when you sing along.?It's like a Fifties Beatles-in-Hamburg type tune. (Bono)
  3. Little More Better sounds worse than Much More Better.
  4. Maybe it's just Kinda More Better...
  5. Maybe it's the Best Better About Me.
  6. This is the reason they delayed the album, to make The Showman a little more better.
  7. ....Where was your funniest poster award?
  8. I did vote for thee, good Sir.
  9. So this is the on connection between SOE and JT30?
  10. I'm disappointed that there isn't a song called "someThing (Much More Better)" like some sort of Showman part deux.
  11. This is a bit of a guess.

    Does anyone think that the 'all my life' beach clip from 2006 is going to be 'The Showman' from SOE?

    Bono did mention that 'The Showman' sounds like a Beatles song, and the lyrics he shared seem like they could fit to the music in beach clip:

    The showman give you front row to his heart
    The shaman prays that his heartache will chart
    Making a spectacle of falling apart
    Is the heart of the show

    I lie for a living
    I love to let on but you make it true when you sing along.?
