Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
The future needs a big kiss
Winds blow with a twist
Never seen a moon like this
Can you see it too?
Night is falling everywhere
Rockets hit the fun-fair
Satan loves a bomb scare
but he won't scare you
Hey! Sexy boots
Get on your boots yeah!
Free me from a dark dream
candy floss, ice cream
all the kids are screaming but the ghosts aren't real
here's what we gotta be:
love & community
Laughter is eternity if joy is real
you don't know how beautiful
you don't know how beautiful you are
you don't know
you don't get it do you?
you don't know how beautiful you are
If some have stuff to blow it up
Well, we are into growing up
Women are the future
All the big revelations
I got a submarine
You've got gasoline
I don't wanna talk about wars between nations
Not right now
Sexy boots
No! no no no
Get on your boots yeah!
Not right now!
Foxy boots
Aaaaow!
You don't know how beautiful
You don't know how beautiful
You are
You don't know
You don't get it do you?
You don't know how beautiful you are
Sexy boots
I don't wanna talk about wars between the nations
Sexy Boots yeah!
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound sound
Let me in the sound sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound now
Oh God I'm going down
I don't wanna drown now
Meet me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound sound
let me in the sound sound
Meet me in the sound
Get on your boots
Get on your boots
Get on your boots
yeah hey hey!
Get on your boots
Yeah hey hey!
Get on your boots
Yeah hey hey!
Get on your boots
Yeah hey hey!
Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
At first listen it was quite unremarkable to me. Then something remarkable happened and I started singing it to myself, after only one listen, while cooking something in the kitchen. By the time I passed the computer again, I had to sit down and listen to it again. And again. Damn catchy little number. This makes me more curious to hear the album in its entirety than I was before. In fact, I've been more anxious to hear this new material than any U2 stuff in years. I used to adore this band, you must understand, but the switch-up that happened post '00 was really jarring to me and I didn't much care for it. Their best song of the past decade or so, for me, was Electrical Storm. But this album's looking to shake things up yet again, and so for that I'll stick around and wish them the best of luck. Here's hoping for U2 and I to enter round two very soon.
Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
Thanks. I'll download that while I sleep. 
Since U2 aren't really anti download and they're obviously wanting a buzz with this track, those links can definitely stay up until everyone here has it.
edit: Someone post a link that isn't megaupload. Some people have trouble with that one.
Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
Once more... Thanks for leaving the links up James!

That's the magic of U2 in a nutshell.
Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
It's a crazy song. So different. It's like a mix of three U2 songs with a new one thrown in:
Verses = Vertigo
"You don't know how beautiful you are" parts = Fast Cars
"Sexy boots" Chorus = Discotheque
But what's the "Let me in the sound" from then? get Your Boots on of course
Re: U2 - Acoustic Achtung Babies
I don't think it'll be as successful a single as Vertigo but I think it is more promising as far as the album is concerned as a whole. It's just so different. Don't get me wrong I also really like it but it's just so different. Yet as I say this I have already mentioned the influences of past songs. It's no doubt spiked my interest int eh album that's for sure.
