However, once the song transitions into the chorus, the instrumental parts become more prominent. Within the verses of the song, the melody remains relatively static, and almost nonexistent as the instrumental portion of the group is playing primarily harmony and background. The guitar solo is the second to last portion of the song, as it is followed by the outro, which utilizes a different melody than any other portion of the song, even though it very closely resembles the bridge. The bridge then leads into a guitar solo. The second chorus is followed by a very brief instrumental break, which in turn precedes a very long vocal bridge. This exact process is then repeated, with two verses and another chorus. After the first two verses, the song transitions into its chorus. Following the musical introduction, the lead singer begins his first verse, quickly followed by the second verse. This in itself is very long, and unusual for most songs of the genre. The song begins with a forty-four second musical introduction. The band’s opinion on the issues that were prevalent during this time, are evident within the song’s syntax, as well as its wording.

I could go on and list the entire discography, but that could get tedious.ġ0.Bullet the Blue Sky was a song produced by U2 in 1987 off of the album, the Joshua Tree, during a time of political uncertainty. Other ones to mention - Seconds, Like A Song, The Unforgettable Fire etc.

Streets is, like WGRYWH, such a driving force behind the song, if that doesn't get people jumping, I don't know what can Mysterious Ways is probably the grooviest out there Acrobat's probably the most unique rhythm ever contrived because of its onortodox time sig. Zoo Station - I know it's not necessarily his most complex piece of rhythm but THE BASS coming from the drums on the Vertigo Tour, fuck me - it could have knocked down the walls of Jericho on its own. Sunday Bloody Sunday has got to rate highly in my opinion, I don't know if there's anyone who knows rock music and doesn't know that song when they hear the intro The Fly is definitely up there, it's so frenetic and mad, like the song itself Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses - it's such a different kind of rhythm to other stuff out there and is just part of what proves to be an epic song I pretty much agree with you on all of the ones you've mentioned, other than In God's Country because it's not a beat that I can remember without listening to it lol. I Will Follow old school larry at his finest Acrobat driving force behind this masterpieceĨ Bullet The Blue Sky especially live this one is insane.ĩ.Whos gonna ride your wild hoses love it love it love it.ġ0. The Fly everyone always raves about the guitar in this song (which is amazing ) but the drums deserve their dueĥ.In God's Country watch the RH version, that left hand floor tom is not only awesome but difficult.Ħ. God part 2 Larry is the master of the floor tom, first time I heard this I said man that is gonna be hardĤ. Bad the driving snare and the off time hi- hat make this one a must playģ. Streets love to play this one, it exhaustingĢ. When I was a teenager that is how I learned to play ,listenening to the entire catalog and jamming along. I am a drummer and have always had alot of fun playing all of U2's stuff.
