U2 is awesome! I need to purchase an album of theirs. "With or Without You," "One" & "Bad" are a few of my faves of theirs.

THis might seem completey strange, but I went to see the Da Vinci Code this week end and there was a new Fandango commercial. You know, Fandango, with the puppets...

Anyway, the new commercial was a spoof of Live Aid, the one that happened in the 80's, not to be confused with last years Live8. So you know how for Live Aid they did those all star music video collaboration thingies?

Yeah, they spoofed it on Fandango! And they had one puppet that looked just like Bono! It was really amusing. I loved it. He got spotlighted and sang and everything. Sunglasses, the hair, the black leather jacket...only that at Live Aid Bono was wearing a frilly white shirt under a funny jaket with big gold buttons and tight leather puss in boots pants and a mullet...

Still. Cracked me up. I wonder how he feels about getting spooffed by Fandango.

Another thing: There is a band called Rock Kills Kid that his a song called "Hideaway". I think it sounds like an amalgamation of the songs "With or Without You" and "The City of Blinding Lights." I like it. I like artists who wear their influences on their sleve and manage to make it sound fresh.

The Edge is the best person on this planet. That is all.

Oh, I don't even know what my favourite song is... there are so many!

Hey Michelle!
Here are the lyrics you requested:

Original of the species

Baby slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it

Some things you shouldn't get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence baby

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it, no
And you'll never be alone
Come on now show your soul
You've been keeping your love under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it
Everywhere you go you shout it
Oh my my

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want you some more, I want you some more...

Finally I see U2 thread! This must stay on the first page, U2 are the greatest band on the planet, they would deserve a board of their own!
I can't really say what my favourite song is... lately I've been listening to "Zooropa" and I adore the lyrics and music of "Stay": such a melancholic song...

It's Official.

Adam Clayton has found what he's looking for. The U2 bassist has just
got engaged to long-term girlfriend Susi Smith.

The dapper musician and the Canadian beauty announced their engagement
to friends at a private party recently. My Deep Throat at the soiree
told me that everyone was sworn to secrecy on pain of immediate exile.
Well, there you go . . .

Adam and Susi looked more in love than usual when I saw them in
January at the launch of a new fragrance by the Missoni fashion label
in the Italian ambassador's stately residence in Grosvenor Square,
London. I now know why.

The Oxfordshire-born Clayton has been of course the most colourful
member of the world's biggest band for years. I love the entertaining
but entirely apocryphal story about how at the time of his arrest for
possession of marijuana, the guards found him sitting serenely stoned
in the boot of his car up in the mountains. Though rock n' roll
fairytale, it does show that Clayton is widely regarded as the epitome
of cool. Cooler still, Adam was engaged to supermodel Naomi Campbell
in 1993.

Naturally, Adam is older and wiser and sober-er (he hasn't touched a
drink since he missed a U2 show in Australia on November 26, 1993 - a
consequence of his break-up with Naomi, some say.) Indeed Susi and
Adam are the ultimate zen couple. They were on holiday in Malaysia
when the tragic tsunami hit the countries off the coast of the Indian
Ocean.

Congrats to Adam how romantic
