Neat, but the actual "sunday, bloody sunday" part sounded weird and totally killed it for me.

Bono is in histrionics right now.

I just wonder how many hours of work this took to compile. Oh to be single and in college again...

What was the music underneath? It wasn't the original song, was it? Couldn't they get a copy of that from Negativland?

next they should do a song where they can sample that OB/GYN love bit...

For those interested in trying this on their own, look at the George W. Bush Public Domain Audio Archive.

bob -- I liked it, but since it's just an MP3 on your own web server, I don't know anything else about it. Where'd it come from? Are there more?

This is very bad news for Negativland.

So that was the actual U2 music behind it? I'll have to give it a listen at home, where I can turn the speakers up above a whisper.

So... do I dare ask who party party is?

Sounds like Lou Reed.

I was expecting a lot worse. But that was cool. Let's roll.
