Not this version. This was actually as a B-side during the Achtung Baby set of singles (not sure which one) plus it is released as the B-sides disc of the Best of 91-2000.
what a trip down memory lane this was for me, this tune reminds me so much of being young.i'd forgotten what a great tune it is. many thanks for the upload.
I STILL REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I LISTENED TO THIS SONG ... AND I WAS TOTALY SURPRISED WITH THE BAND EVOLUTION ... I MISS THE RELEASE OF ACHTUNG BABY AND ZOO TV TOUR ... LUMINOUS TIMES WITH GREAT SONGS ... SAY YES FOR THE FLY AND TAKE CARE MACPHISTO WAS IN THE STREETS ... U2 FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS !!!!
@020475150472 es un B-side, no estoy seguro si es un disco "oficial", mas bien fue parte de una recopilacion de canciones que omitieron de discos pasados. Esta cancion especificamente fue omitida de Achtung Baby.
Too bad nobody else has covered this song. It's a gem from U2 but they dropped to just being an obscure B-side because it evolved into other songs on Achtung Baby like the Fly.
yes the fly is one of those songs you cant ever tire of, ive listened to that guitar solo which in my mind is one of the greatest solos ever, the way it builds up so many times, the edges epic sound really cant be beaten, its stunning
And some have the nerve to try and suggest this (early 90s) was a weak period??? Sublime - raw, jagged, threatening, in-your-face, tongue-in-cheek, incessant, feverish non-middle-of-the-road-radio-friendly power.
This song remember in a lot of ways The Fly!!! In the chorus it seems that the chords are of The Fly live from Boston. Very Good sound!!! 1st class!!! U2 are the best!!!
this is a remix of a song that was produced in the sessions for Achtung Baby but ultimately left off the album. The original recording later surfaced as a B-side to "One" and this remix a B-side for "Even Better Than the Real Thing".
It's probably U2's best kept secret, this song. Let the fairweather fans have "Vertigo" or "The Saints Go Marching". I'd rather listen to this little gem instead.
I jog to this mofo right here :D

ok ..... this is a great song but it couldnt be on the Achtung Baby because its just a spin off track of the Fly (which is of course a better song)

@Boxer73 Personally, I like this more than the fly... both are amazing songs none the less

One of the best U2 songs of all time. It's a shame this song doesn't receive the deserved recognition.

Would sound great with Shaun Ryder's vocal from "Wrote For Luck" mixed with
the Fool's Gold Break.

This song is from U2's finest period. I bought all five Achtung Baby singles back in the early nineties and all the B tracks are great!
