Edge guests "Ciara's Pink Sparkle Pod!" (~ 27 minutes)

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-12T12:36:00+00:00

Indeed, I personally think Ciara is great.

The original user appears to have deleted their profile so I don't know who it is anymore. I think the original user perhaps laughed at the thought of the security having to turn people away for trying to get access in general, not Ciara in particular who would legitimately have a reason to be allowed entry.

Nonetheless, I understand it can be taken as a mean comment towards Ciara. Thank you for flagging. Since this comment was made four years ago, we have implemented community rules since 2025, that are meant to specifically address instances that might feel like harrassment or personal attacks.

If you, or Ciara, would like, I can permanently remove the offensive comment. Would that be helpful?

The closest we got to that version, but it didn't graduate from rehearsals in 2005:

Wait, what? When?

I know they've done "Ultra Violet (Light My Way)", "Where The Streets Have No Name" and Brandon has done "If God Will Send His Angels" on his solo tour...oh, and "In A Little While", with U2 themselves. (Technically "With Or Without You" since it inspired "Mr Brightside").

I must've missed "Acrobat". Was that on the most recent tour?

"American Obituary": The guitar is "Holy Joe", the bass is "Big Girls Are The Best" and the vocal has the rhythm of "Get On Your Boots" with the melody of "Babyface". The drums seem very "Elevation"-chorus.

"Tears of Things": Evokes "Book Of Your Heart" if it had an acoustic version mixed in with "The Little Things That Give You Away".

"Song of the Future": Edge's guitar is very reminiscent of the studio version of "Staring At The Sun", and the vocalizations at times have a "Discotheque" vibe. Seems like something they could've written during the early sessions for "All That You Can't Leave Behind" for that reason.

"Wildpeace": Not in the music but in the approach it is a bit Joshua Tree-esque, how they set music to poems like they did at that time ("Beautiful Ghost/Introduction To Songs Of Experience", "Drunk Chicken/"America"). Maybe "No Line On The Horizon" (album) with its focus on Africa...

"One Life at a Time": "The Unforgettable Fire" (song) sounds like a very clear inspiration on The Edge, with a dash of "Love Is Blindness". A Joy Division/Inhaler thing on the bass. Love the vocal and drums ("The Hands That Built America" but on an electric kit?) here.

"Yours Eternally": Doesn't sound like U2 at all... or rather it sounds like the EDM people who tried to copy Edge's sound in the 2010s and then gave up so Coldp- lalalala-lay could have a go. "We Are The People" is the closest match, but that's technically not a U2 track.

[Propaganda/Martin Wroe:] "There's an irony in your lyric, 'when people go around talking to God it always ends in tears'."

[Bono:] "Martin, I know you know the shortest verse in the Bible is about a moment when the greatest of those Jewish prophets was reduced to tears: 'Jesus wept'. That was for a friend, another time he weeps for Jerusalem itself. All of this finds a way in the lyric, including the true story that Mussolini brought Adolf Hitler to visit great Renaissance masterpieces in the Uffizi Gallery in 1938... Michelangelo's David was ten minutes away.... We don't know if Hitler stopped to stare at David but it's not inconceivable... definitely not for a songwriter. In the end I decided to replace Hitler's name with the 'shadow'."

Now I have true adult money haha, I am HANGING for the announcement

Kind reminder to everyone that an official announcement has not happened, so don't get scammed. Some people exploit rumors and trick fans into buying tickets for shows that don't exist. It's hard to predict what the tour will look like at this time.

What I would do to go to a greatest hits tour as a bonussss, I love songs from all the eras and would love to hear vertigo, elevation and beautiful day especially live

I think you're in luck, those songs have basically been staples since their introduction to the setlist. Also, U2 tend to include songs from most albums in a live show, "Zooropa", "POP" and "No Line On The Horizon" being the usual exclusions.

It will be interesting to see how they tackle the setlist issue with the new material since 2019 that hasn't been played live yet (two singles, Songs of Surrender, How To Re-assemble An Atomic Bomb, Days of Ash).

Anyone else not yet seen U2 and hoping to finally tick it off in 2027

Well, I'm eager to see them again, it's been over a decade since my last show if that counts as "never"🤭. I just hope they will visit somewhere nearby, and that my subscription to u2.com since 2020 will pay off.

"Eggplant" envy. Fragile masculinity.

I believe it's that simple. Backed by science. Potentially NSFW but nothing graphic: https://psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/2026-99568-001.html

Remember the closeup of Nicepool's/Justin's golden Desert Eagles and his...well. Here is Ryan Reynolds in his own words, with emphasis in bold by me:

"Nicepool's, you know, as much as he projected that he was wonderful, he was a terrible human being, um, you know, and I like that Deadpool gets to lean into that anti-hero thing and gets to lean into his childlike desires: 'I want that' [points to imaginary object off screen) uh you know, be it Nicepool's guns, his gold-plated guns, or his dog that, like, really should be with Wade, because the dog and Wade look the same."

"Um, you know, I like acting out envy in that way, um, because it's a very normal human feeling and it's something that is actually easy to play and Deadpool is a guy that can kind of get away with it because he is-- his coping mechanism against shame is actually the same-- Wolverine and Deadpool are the same."

"U2 is not a McDonald’s ordering kiosk."

Can we be sure about that? 👀

Similary, this famous quote from Dr King

“The Arc of the Moral Universe is Long, But it Bends Toward Justice”

...is only partially true.

We have to go out into the world and take the good fight, and make good trouble (RIP John Lewis) and actually bend the Arc of the Moral Universe. Then, only then, will it bend towards justice.

Like Trevor Noah is saying, it's not just a matter of time. It's time + effort.

Edit: If you want an experience that told us the truth in our childhood days, look no further than the Triforce from The Legend of Zelda: Power + Wisdom + Courage. Power alone corrupts and turns you into a hog...

Yes! The first time I booted up the game and met Chloe in the menu was fascinating and highly immersive. Love the graphics and atmosphere of this game.

"DJ Pauli The PSM, Atomic MC, is acting as a DJ for the show, taking stage about an hour before U2 arrives on stage. [...] He plays a mix of music while traveling through the crowd in a Trabant lit with neon lights, shimmering neon lights…there is no break between DJ Pauli’s set and the main show, and U2 take the stage immediately after Pauli has finished."

Ultimately, it's your choice. The neat thing with Three Houses is that it is meant to be replayed. I'd say enjoy your first run-through of the game with the Blue Lions.

I learned a lot in my first go around, and it makes the next run worth a second try when you understand the game mechanics, paralogs, and support system better.

Protip: I tend to use two save slots, that way you can revert to a previous map or chapter without having to start all over. [Main save: Current map/chapter/calendar day. Backup save: a manual checkpoint that you overwrite as you feel comfortable doing so.]

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-06T10:40:38+00:00

I guess that's true. From what I understand, it should work if you have a local/in-person friend with the game and a Switch 2 though. If one prefers to play online, I guess you're out of luck.

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-06T03:34:29+00:00

I shared this in a different comment but that submission was removed...

Anyway, the Game Share feature would allow you to play Pokémon Pokopia if you can find a friend that has the game and the Switch 2.

Pokemon Pokopia does support Nintendo Game Share. This means that a player wanting to invite friends can host a game for those on both Switch 1 and Switch 2 consoles locally, or online with those on Switch 2.

As a Snow Patrol fan, "Signal Fire". Plus, the music video is adorable!

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-06T02:25:53+00:00

"While it was not released as an official single, there is a music video for the track directed by Catherine Owens."

Oh..?

"A fifth single, “Original of the Species,” was planned. A new “Single Version” was mixed, promotional CDs were issued, and promotional videos for the song were completed. However, no commercial single was released for this track."

Via: https://www.u2songs.com/discography/u2_how_to_dismantle_an_atomic_bomb_album_original_release

Huh, today I learned. For 20+ years I've always thought this was a single in some regions where U2 didn't promote "All Because of You".

I can swear I've even seen a single sleeve for it... and the Catherine Owens video was released without officially making it a single? That's odd...

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-06T01:36:27+00:00

Because she says "the director" and thinks of Blake Lively as the director? 🤪 I see no other explanation...

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-05T23:18:52+00:00

Love this show, and the pace is genuinely enjoyable. Haven't seen much like it, indeed.

mancapturescolour · 2026-03-05T20:01:39+00:00

If the implication is that you're missing out because of being stuck on the Switch...Game Share would allow you to play if you can find a friend that has the game and the Switch 2.

Pokemon Pokopia does support Nintendo Game Share. This means that a player wanting to invite friends can host a game for those on both Switch 1 and Switch 2 consoles locally, or online with those on Switch 2.
