Hello Hello @ 03:55 pm

xxxlonestarxxx:
I'm currently feelin: bouncy bouncy

I just joined the community & I have a question.

Does "Vertigo" sample another song in it ??
Or not same, but have a part in it similar to another song ??

I know it's confusing & I apologize. Can anyone help me ??

Thanx ^_^

Yes! :) On U2's first album in 1980, "Stories for Boys" had the line, "hello hello, stories for boys..."

"Vertigo" has "hello hello, I'm in a place called Vertigo..."

The guitar riff from the "All of this..." part is also from Stories for Boys.

Yeah.
The Vertigo bit is a little higher pitched than the SFB part. I think.

Has elements of "Stories for Boys," but you can also sing the Supremes' "You Keep Me Hangin' On" over the chorus. Old news, but I wasn't sure if that's what you meant or not.

I'm thinking... BAH. The main line is nearly a direct copy of something else and now I've lost it. I will return.

Actually, I remember an article comparing the song to that of Rod Stewart's "You Keep Me Hangin' On"

Hello, hello, I'm at a place called Vertigo!
VS
You just keep me hanging on
