The original demo version with Elvis Costello is so much better though.Sounds almost like it came from a Beatles album. The 80s production ruins the album version.

Rev has Lucy Liemann. Beyond that it's quite undwhelming.

Bowie and Eno were doing some pretty cutting edge stuff in Berlin, so for Eno to think "I Feel Love" was really where it was at is something.

The abiding image from Jobs biography, aside from the obvious genius/asshole stuff,  was his extreme lack of hygiene, bean-based diet and subsequent lethal BO problem. 
I`m not expecting this movie to address that.

Yeah, Death In Vegas were solid, even in the Krautrock stuff on Satans Circus. "Ein für die Damen" and "Sons of Rother" are great.

It's weird that the greatest rock bands were English. But its probably the art school system in the UK that made it so.

Yeah, but even before the Sopranos got there I remember an embarrassing incident where a friend quoted both those lines and I was sure they were from Godfather II, being far too iconic and cool to be from III.

trollers gonna troll.

Its not great compared to I and II, but the lines "
Just when I thought I was out… they pull me back in" and "
Our true enemy, has yet to reveal himself " are great quotes at least.

If the line "…Jones, its secret songwriting mastermind " is saying that Jones was the lead songwriter then I cannot agree. It was probably going to head downhill anyway, as bands do, but 
Strummer and Jones really brought out the best in each other.

The Sundays are Black Sabbath compared to B & S.

I´m not sure the Pearce scene is contemporary with the main plot of the movie. I think its more an insight into the man who set things rolling.

Joe Jackson?  Got to go for 'It's Different For Girls'.

That Irish accent is still coming through a bit. Although its only when he shouts, like at the end if XMen, that it gets hilariously strong

James Earl Jones was in Soul Man. Hard to believe.

The song  "Celebrity Skin" is fantastic."Shimmering" is a great adjective for it.

Wonder no more. It's actually an inside joke, as the album was U2s 14th album, if you include stuff like 'Passengers'.
