Acrobat U2 DEMO

[spooked1oo]

This sounds more like their Joshua Tree songs than it dies Achtung Baby.

[baccioba]

i guess this version owns to the demo material that was stolen via web before the release of Achtung Babies, even before Internet existed.

[Pacheko296]

the lyrics are difrents too?

[DownSouth94]

the demo of sweetest thing was amazing

[Mak08Mak]

Wow! cool but I am glad Acrobat final recording sounds like it is!

[fauljosh]

Man, I LOVE the Achtung Baby Working Tapes. This and Heaven and Hell are my favorite songs.

[con72]

drums at the start sound like "walk on"

[deathbloody4u2]

very good images!!!! I never seen it! thank u!

[WatchingViking]

o boy i'd sure like to hear it on the 360 tour, as well as the unforgettable fire

[anacrobat89]

To those saying this is better than the finished version, come on! Let's get real, this sounds just like what it is; A DEMO. It also has far less of edge's guitar work as opposed to "Acrobat" which rocks.

[offthelinegt]

different chords too .. this is strange

[erickrolo]

all these versions are gold

[greyday1]

some of the songs from those early sessions sounded better than the finished version. i prefer this over the final version. and She's Gonna Blow Your House Down should be released!

[Stereotype23]

What the song would have sounded like if it had been on Rattle and Hum?

[dragmio]

It seems so. It has a similar sound to it like "Hawkmoon 269".

[AdyPole]

LOOK, THEY PLAY IT RAW IN THE STUDIO THEY CAN PLAY IT LIVE!!!!haha, as if. They could, but they would? no. shame. maybe next tour?

[evilmm80]

I miss my 3 disc demo of Achtung Baby hopefully I find it somewhere.

[munkeybrains]

i have 'salome' and you can find it on the torrent sites sometimes. i have to dig all my old cd's out one year.

[disgruntledgoatiam]

I have this as well. ( A three cd box set) I listened to it a lot while at Penn State. There is an article on the internet about how it was found. The 1st song on the third cD probably would have been a good song!

[rufus102]

Love this version - pity you didn't record it from inside the same building you were playing it.

[Pure7pazaak]

I've got the rarities and ideas from the Achtung Baby sessions aswell. Have you heard "Wake up," the original demo that turned into Ultraviolet and The Fly?

[WeMustBeStopped]

Holy shit!! On some tape a buddy made for me in, whatever, 92, 93, I have this!! I swear I thought these outtakes and demos were like having a second (secret) Achtung Baby. How can one find all those again? Did they legitimately release the material?

[jackassfromnc]

No they didn't legitimately release this material.

You can find these all over the internet. Try U2torrents, Dime, Traders Den, Tapecity... There are a lot of hidden "secrets" out there. You just have to open the door.

[WeMustBeStopped]

Thx

[Scarumaster]

Amazing! Sounds very Irish, with those drums.

[sgf1989]

I wish I was able to hear the lyrics
