designer U2
I love the simple yet bold effect of the U2 Vertigo/itunes sample. (Download from here). When I see work like this, I am re-affirmed in my awareness that I am not a graffic designer …..

u2 go home
Just found U2 Go home DVD cheap
(At the Warehouse, for all the NZ U2 groupies).
It’s not many bands that in one concert, both protest arms dealing and conclude singing
hallelujah
hallelujah
Dear God,
please may U2 lead worship at my celestial pad.

love is blindness: u2 all sweet pain
reading this reminded me of being at the feelers concert last week. they did a fantastic rendition of U2’s Love is Blindness, a perfect mix of loud, angry guitar and plaintiff sweet vocals, which captures the pain of loving, the risk of giving, the sweetness of hoping.
Love is clockworks
And cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle
Blow out the candle
Love is blindness

Kid A
Today is a Kid A day. This week has been a Kid A week.
Everything
in its right place
sort of bleakly beautiful,
on repeat.
that mix of soulful hope,
I’m it.
