This little bell twinkle phrase at the beginning is true genius. Any other producer would concentrate on the main chords and construct the song from them. Hail Brian Eno.
this album was the first album I ever bought (it was a tape, and I bought it off a classmate (with Achtung Baby) and I listened to it heavily until I got The Passengers, after that I never bought another U2 related album...). This is one of the best purchases I've ever made in my life so far including The High Llamas' Beet, Maize, & Corn and Stereolab's Dots & Loops
@joaoteodosio 90's U2 is best U2. They haven't forgotten this either. No Line on the Horizon I like quite a bit, and the U2 show I saw in July had a great 90's feel with lots of Zooropa love.
U2 - coming my way!!! As one of my graduation presents, I'm going to see them in Anahiem at the Angels' Stadium on their U2 360' tour, with Lenny Kravitz opening for them!!! I couldn't really be happier!!!
@kostasxrysogelos I do not! ;) My eyes are green and I've never thought that they are blue! By the way I've never understood why every girl has blue eyes in novels, poems or songs... Does everyone think that this is the most romantic eye colour or what? :D That's why I was so glad when in Harry Potter green eyes were so important... :D
@KoszaSzello Green is a variation of blue :) :) :) (blue+yellow= green). As for the blue eyes in novels etc, it's a romantic motif, based on medieval romances of chivalry.
@carlosb1 Well, I don't know the girl who you have a crush on (or who you in love with ;) so I just can tell you that if I were that girl, I wouldn't mind it all! Furthermore, I would be glad that a boy dedicates a song to me by U2 ( by the band which is one of my biggest influence in music ;) which contains a line that says: "How could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy?" I think it's all the same whether she has bright blue eyes or not...
@sdxcar sweetest thing ever said...God bless you dear one. It truly means a lot. I was lucky enuff to visit Rome and Venice and my God venice is lovely...I hope they keep it that way and mantain. Too much is changing these days.
When I was Jr high I really thought that listening to this and sharing it would get me laid. Damn was I wrong. Edge, Id like to push you over yourself. Thanks for nothing U2. I hope I can find my MC Hammer album so I can finally get some.
Honestly, imo, i think this is among their top 6 or 5 albums....i would even put POP among their best :-O......They weren't the best albums, silly yes, but still they were DAMN GREAT....better than their mediocre albums now a days.....which are still good, but don't have the songs with that PUNCH in it.
I wish U2 would throw some lines of this song during the 360 tour. Heck, I wish they would just play it but I know Bono always likes to add little bits of songs into other songs :o)
This song is Amazing... It brings me memories... Reminds me of my first Boyfriend and the Great love of my life... We broke up and now 13 years after we are together again...And this song's still our song... :)
wow it is really moving what your wrote:)) i used to go out with my first love and dance in club to that song, now its been 6 years we did not talk...
@evolutionarytic I think the "U2 purists" didn't like this album, so it's kept under wraps. I love a lot of songs from this album though. Some really great tunes.
This song and this album don't get no respect! No respect, I tell ya. (same goes for Pop!)

This song is not about romance, per se, rather, it is about an average joe looking at a porno film.

What happened to U2? I feel like they suck since the "All the things you can't leave behind". Still a big fan of Achtung-Zooropa-Pop.
