Native Son Live In Argentina - by U2mixer

[turtle53081]

To anyone who doesn't know, Native Son is the original lyrics to Vertigo, based on Leonard Peltier. Leonard Peltier's story is very controversial.

purely great!!

[FlowMephisto]

fantastic, really great!

but one mistake: the part from 1:23 sings The Edge, not Bono :'D

but still great

[jppjc]

this song is just as good as vertigo and maybe better

[bonoffee83]

I think as a title & lyric concept Native Son was too... worthy, maybe? to be a real single. Vertigo is throwaway but meaningful, and I think the riff is more awesome on Vertigo. Not that I dislike Native Son, but Vertigo is in my top 10 U2 songs so I am biased. ;)

excelente trabajo!

estuve en ese recital, y la verdad es que lograste hacer mas emocionante mi recuerdo de ese dia!

Asi y todo pienso que NATIVE SON es mejor cancion que VERTIGO en todo sentido, nunca voy a entender porque u2 siempre deja sus mejores temas en lados b y demas...

Native Son was the original song before Bono changed it to Vertigo. It is based on true events where a Native American, Leonard Peltier was wrongly convicted for the murder of 2 FBI agents during a standoff on a Lakota reservation. He is still in prison to this day trying to get out. He's been locked up since 1975.

I agree with others here that Native Son is a superior song to Vertigo. I don't understand why they dropped it. The way the song slides into the final chorus from that long drawn out "freeeeee" from Bono is purely awesome.

[AdyPole]

ingenious!!!

[JBraden]

haha, "U2mixer" at the end- another great one- i'm impressed with your work!

[JohnnyVOX]

awesome job friend!!

hha!!1

amazing!!

[bonavex]

Wow that was really well done. The only part that really made it obvious was one part where Edge should have done backups (On the run...) and the sound was there, but Edge was obviously not singing.

[BelgianBono]

If you didn't let Bono sing Edge's part, i really would've thaught they played Native Son, which is ten times better than Vertigo

[SunnyAquamarine]

How cool are you. May all success find you.

[frankdefoot]
