U2 - Running to Stand Still - Mini Edge (Feat. Ernie)

[bluntmanbutt]

You're almost Bono... Not!! Nice vest.. Play it with a single coil guitar with a little distortion

[ROOKTABULA]

@bluntmanbutt LOL You're almost not a penis.....NOT! (as in fully penile) Kinda similar in look and sound to Hewson. Odds of looking like someone are pretty slim, even slimmer odds of sounding like them. Crazy. Get a drummer tho. Drum machines to rock music are like........ Katy Perry to music in general: Generally just a really not good idea. >;P

[Jeffreedoe]

new on the tube new to your sound but what an awesome combo you guys are GREAT!!!!



[martymetz3]

great gitar....Ernie you sound like a gargoyle raping a zombies dead baby. You sound terrible, and u look like a faggot, and ur manurisms are just stupid...good guitar though

[nemesianus]

Nice to choose the ZOO-TV version of the song.

Ernie's voice is as a matter of fact much more tone-steady than Bono's (classical trained?). But that natural rasp in his voice is impossible to cover, so thumbs up for this version! And miniedge, time to change that name in maxi-edge if you ask me :)

[mikeisagodd2121]

hey

[mikeisagodd2121]

so..how long have you 2 guys been lovers??

[chenrivera73]

[chenrivera73]

[zvejkal2]

One of my favourite .. and you covered it very nice.

Thank you.

[abcgiuseppe1]

good job again....congratulations....

[MXanderT]

Mini edge, you rock!

[ugtosiens4410]

wahooooo ! you sing very well and your style is magnificent !!!! lol and the guitarist playing very very well !!!!!

[reesebastian]

sick...

[LammensB]

This is just fantastic. it must take a lot of time to put this together. Also the video is nicely composed.

My personal favorite is Ultraviolet from achtung baby.

But running to stand still is also magic.

And the singers voice looks like bono's voice.

This all together is soo cool, and should have 1000000 times more viewers.

Great stuff!!

[salezx]

Powerful !

Nice "the edge" sound !

[staxoffish]

Awsome,

I've just started palying the guitar and U2 were the reason for getting started..

Where can I get the tabs for the song?

[miniedgeU2]

Thanks staxoffish.

I don't have any tabs but when I began playing the guitar I used to visit some really helpfull pages to find tabs. My favourite one was ultimate-guitar. However, most of them aren't very accurate, but will help you in your first steps.

Hope this helps.

[fulanator]

Buenísimo

[larry1977]

hey guys ! i play drums too..don't you want to make a streets version?

[wpcmth]

Amazing voice & Edge sound, well done You 2!

[miniedgeU2]

Thanks a lot mate! :)

[Hockeyguy85]

Hey did you go to see U2? I have a live CD from the opening show in Barcalona if you want I can make a copy for you!

[miniedgeU2]

Hey Hockeyguy! Sorry for my delay in answering.

Yes I went to both shows, it was the first time i was in a u2 concert, so you can imagine how incredible it was for me. I was very lucky and at the second show managed to be in the first row, in front of The Edge. Such a great night!

About the live CD, you are very generous, but don't worry, i've seen many videos of the show, but again, thanks a lot for asking.

Which shows are you going to?

Take care mate, and thanks again for your generosity

[zemo84]

This is my favourite version...ZOOTV VERSION!!!

Great men!!!

U2 forever :)

[miniedgeU2]

Thank you! It's also our favourite version :)

[matas200]

Although I prefer Vertigo tour version , you were great .

Is there a chance you could make cover of these songs : COBL , electric co , I will follow , Miracle drug ? Thank you ^^

[miniedgeU2]

Thanks matas200!

I've been thinking about doing a City of blinding lights cover for a long time, so soon or late i'll begin working with it, such an amazing song.

About the others, they are not in the top of my priority list but, you know, there's always time for everything :)

[manhattanmaryanne]

as always ..amazing!

5 million stars for both of you!

[miniedgeU2]

Many stars, don't know where we will keep them!

5 million thanks!

[romulobortolozzo]

Perfect!

[bakosspyr]

I wrote some things on Ernies channel also....

You are such a great inspiration and I personally have to thank you for spreading U2's music so amazingly!!!! What else can I say....this is sertenly for a stage....you have it guys...You REALLY HAVE IT!!!

[miniedgeU2]

My friend, you are the reason why we do this, for people who need U2 to breathe like we do, and really understand the meaning of they music.

Thanks again for your words mate, they mean a lot to us.

Take care!

[guille79bcn]

Felicidades Albert, una vez mas...

Me compré la Roland TD-9KX y ya tengo ganillas de que me acompañes con la guitarra...

A ver si sincronizamos agendas, ok???

Un saludo crack

[miniedgeU2]

Muchas grácias Guille,

Pues si, a ver cuando hacemos el ensayo. Lástima que ahora esté de examenes pero los acabo justamente el dia antes del concierto. A ver si nos vemos por la cola!

Un abrazo.

[migueledge]

5stars

[miniedgeU2]

Grácias migueledge! :)

Nos vemos en Barcelona!

[migueledge]

En BCN y en Glasgow

[airsoftsteve]

MICRO KORG!!!!!!!!!! :D

[miniedgeU2]

Yeah, love it! I've always recommended it to my friends. Affordable and with amazing sound, like in the old times.

[vertigo233]

You guys have made justice...very good!!!

Hey...wich program you use to record the tracks?

Keep it up!!!

[miniedgeU2]

Thanks a lot mr. Vertigo!

I use a Korg d888 (a digital multitrack recorded) and then mix it with Logic (I also used Cubase before). Ernie records his voice with an audio interface and Cubase.

Hope this helps.

[vertigo233]

Thanks Miniedge!!!

I'll try to use the Sony ACID to mix...

Keep doing a great job!!!

[B2U2]

Beautiful mates!! I was missing your videos!! This is one of my favorite songs! Every time I listen to it, my mind goes straight to the lyrics and they bring a tear to my eye.. every time. This was not exception. I've listened to others cover this but you did such a great job that I still got that tear in my eye. Thanks and keep'em coming aye!!

[miniedgeU2]

Wow thanks a lot B2U2, it's always great hearing from you.

As you say, it's one of the most touching U2 songs, I absolutely love it. I'm glad you liked it!

Take care!

[DarkRising12]

wow you guys still rock! great band great band

[Gazoon]

Very good :) loved this, love the song n love the band.

My only criticism is that the singer seems a bit over the top at times, and for me that takes away from the song. Seems like he's trying to make his voice wobble at every possible moment. Don't know the technical term for it XD Just gets a bit much is all.

However, liked that he made it his own rather than trying to imitate the Zoo TV version exactly. I'm gna give this 5 stars just coz U2s my fave band XD

[miniedgeU2]

Thanks for your comment Gazoon.

The problem about this version is that Bono sings it with his lowest register and then suddenly goes to his highest one, almost to the limit, so this makes it a very very hard song to sing. I think Ernie does an amazing job reaching those notes, very few people can, and I doubt Bono himself could reach those notes nowadays.

But thanks for your appreciation, not saying you are not right, just that it's a very hard song to sing. I'm glad you liked it!
