U2 Dismantled - Ep.5 The Unforgettable Fire Strikes Back
Can you believe we made it to episode 5? In this episode we examine U2’s Unforgettable Fire. The album includes the mega -hit “Pride” and solidifies the band as a group that is unforgettable. The album appears to be about tearing down and rebuilding. This is the first collaboration between U2 and Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois and the band takes on a new experimental sound.
During the episode, Andy and Cameron discovered a mystery and want help solving it. When listening to “MLK” at the end of Unforgettable Fire and then immediately playing “Where the Streets have No Name” it appears that these are one song. We want your input on this.
