Fair use rationale
editThis is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
- It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken, as well as the band that performs it.
- It is a sample of about 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording.
- It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
- It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
- It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
Specific rationale for "Zooropa (song)"
edit- The song was written with the idea of creating a visual setting for the rest of the album, using the "noise" to portray a futuristic sci-fi setting. This clip helps to illustrate how the band thought that setting would sound.
- The theme of the song is moral confusion, introduced in the lyrics "And I have no compass". This sample helps the reader/listener to understand the theme of confusion by showing how those lyrics were integrated on top of the noise of the futuristic backdrop.
- With the album Zooropa, U2 took a further step in re-inventing the sound of their music; the clip shows how much the band's sound had changed in comparison to previous songs such as "Pride (In the Name of Love)", "Sunday Bloody Sunday", and "Where the Streets Have No Name".
