Love it that fans knows the lyrics better than Bono :P

I love the subtitles! Suitably wacky to go with this loopy performance. Cheers.

I would prefer to listen “xanax and wine” this version is slow .

True. I was sitting behind the stage at this show and could see the teleprompter the whole time. That gives Bono and Obama one more thing in common, being unable to function normally without being fed their lines.

“The right to appear ridiculous is something I hold dear”!!He got the lyrics wrong but still..I liked it!!!Nice one! :)

I was at that show that night, and fast cars was not on the set list. They acutally hardly every played it during the tour. It wasnt rehearsed or anything. that was the reason they didnt have it on the teleprompter they were not ready for it. but whether it was good or bad the crowd loved it.

That was funny.

Bono messed up the words on pretty much every verse, except the first. I can’t say I’ve ever seen another band screw up the lyrics as badly as Bono did here, but I’ve seen worse from Bono: Angel was a disaster of hysterical proportions at the 2nd Elevation show in Miami. Eventually he just ended it with something like, “Hey la di da Bono can’t park his car, angel….I must apologize.”

Great stuff.

If this is them messing up then they win at life!

Made me smile!

watermark260783 December 16, 2009 at 2:46 am

Awesome lol. Especially the subtitles you did ;) . Too bad you didn’t include this one in your ultimate mix as a bonus ;) .
Thanks a lot for all your filming and sharing these gems!

B2U2 December 16, 2009 at 3:36 am

Seriously?!?! Haha, that’s actually kind of funny.

u2rulesmyworld December 16, 2009 at 4:29 am

actually bono does use a telepromtper even for songs he has been singing for years, i have footage when you can see the teleprompter scrolling the words to the songs

STARSmenber December 16, 2009 at 5:41 am

Good vid, well except for the attempt at humor.

thnickamorg December 16, 2009 at 6:21 am

Man.. that’s hilarious..

B2U2 December 16, 2009 at 6:28 am

This is funny… but they don’t use teleprompters (or however you spell that word) for concerts… but I loved they whole subtitle thing it was funny.

Danielagraca December 16, 2009 at 6:59 am

wphorsemn152 December 16, 2009 at 7:41 am

Where’s Adam?

ClaudiaLovesU2 December 16, 2009 at 8:22 am

This is so cool. They still did a great job on the song. Because they have fun on stage WE have fun watching them. I LOVE them and will forever be a U2 fan.

u2htdaab December 16, 2009 at 8:57 am

Awesome, awesome work. October 16 2005 he was fine with Fast Cars, but he forgot the words to In A Little While. He sang “In a little while, I’ll rememember the words//In a little while, I’ll remember this blessed song…” Funny stuff. Captions are fantastic. My fav was “Bono is a dead man.” So…..Edge. :) Great sound quality and video…and great song. Please do this some more!
