  • I will love U2 Always....

  • why are all my favourite U2 songs b-sides?

  • This song, and Are You Gonna Wait Forever should be live standard songs for U2. I prefer these over most of their other songs over the past decade plus.

  • Edge actually sings the background "Always" bit during Beautiful Day live, funny enough.

  • Maybe it´s already passed enough time from this song and the release of Beautiful Day for it to see the light

  • @newpixeldude Nope and especially not as a radio single. Way too similar and considering Beautiful Day is still one of their most popular songs on the radio U2 would get absolutely slammed for "copying" their own material.

  • Beautiful Day + Breathe = Always

  • Gran tema..estilo vértigo..eso es u2

  • @Maraya0478 Vertigo es lo menos estilo U2 que hay jajajajaa, la única parecida a vertigo es Get on yout boots, las demas no tienen parecido xD

  • can't get this out of my head.

  • it must be the origin point for U2's song "Beautiful Day"

  • Molti hanno trovato una forte somiglianza musicale tra BEAUTIFUL DAY e la sua b-side ALWAYS, soprattutto nel ritornello. Probabilmente questo è dovuto al fatto che, in fase di registrazione, si trattava ... DELLA STESSA CANZONE! infatti, cosa c'era scritto sulla lavagna degli studi di Windmill Lane a Dublino durante le sessioni di registrazione di "All That You Can't Leave Behind": Beautiful Day (Always)

  • @Wanteddeadoralive54 Many have found a strong similarity between music and its BEAUTIFUL DAY ALWAYS b-side, especially in the chorus. This is probably due to the fact that, during recording, it was ... THE SAME SONG! In fact, what was written on the board of Windmill Lane studios in Dublin during the recording sessions for "All That You Can not Leave Behind": Beautiful Day (Always)

  • Here today...gone tomorrow.

  • love this song - had never heard it before :) beautiful day

  • The drum beat at the chorus sounds wonderfully familiar (a la Beautiful Day). This song really grew on me since the first time I heard it. So uplifting it brings a tear to my eye now. In contrast, BD is a catchy song you fall in love with the very first time you hear it, which explains its massive,mainstream appeal, I think

  • Pretty incredible, this band. I worked at a record store in 1981 and a coworker handed me the "October" album. I became an instant fan- they have had such a powerful career....I swear when I saw them in concert- in 1984- it was a spritual experience...just like this song....ascending...

  • Comment removed

  • if you dream, dream outloud - is that from some other song? it sounds familiar.

  • @winggoddess Ya, Acrobat

    "Well you can dream

    So dream outloud

    You know that your time is coming round

    So don't let the bastards grind you down!"

  • @winggoddess Zooropa at the end?

  • @quakey987 Ya he also sings in Zooropa "She's gonna dream outloud" haha it seems to be a pretty popular line that he sings

  • love it.....a true dublin spirit......the boys of u2

  • Its fun to compare "what we have we're gonna keep, what we've lost we don't need" from Always to "what you don't have you don't need it now, what you don't know you can feel somehow" from Beautiful Day.

  • One of my favorite U2-songs!

  • i love this song

  • I think they will never play this song live : (

  • what we have we gonna keep

    pls u2 keep rocking

  • Beautiful;)

  • great song from the greatest band of all times

  • Jesus this is an awesome song!..... can't believe it's only a b-side though!

    I cant decide if i like Beautiful Day or Always better now, i think id be more inclined to say always if i hadnt heard BD live though! .......... I agree, please play some of your great b-sides live! especially this! :)

  • @JJEMMX2610 Better is the music, better is the lyrics. We don't need to hear this song live because it sounds in our souls.....Always...

  • ALLLWAYYYS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • U2 The Best

  • music sounds like beautiful day...

  • the chorus is the best ever it rocks hell

  • @DutchMaster0 yep.

  • i think this is better than beautiful day.

  • @TheGavio93 me too!!!

  • i lovee thhis songg i wish they played it in concert

  • freaking nice song... i wish they played this more.... =(

  • One of their best B sides.I like this bridge better than BD though.

  • sorry not than, then

  • If you dream, than dream out loud!

  • the verse of this song is the same chord progression as With or Without You, and the chorus is Beautiful Day. This is one of my favourite U2 songs and I really wish they would have popularized it more.

  • @chocolatyeggs They use the same bass progression on "Babyface" and "Light My Way" too. Sounds terrific, always (no pun intended!)

  • Amazing song. You can hear beautiful Day through it, but they sound like two diffirent songs.

  • @michielterpelle This should have made it to to the album. That's why there are B-sides though. Look at Angels and Airwaves. The first album was like listening to the same song over and over with different beats and lyrics.. LOL

  • great songggg

  • awesome song!!

  • this is a great song. i like the lyrics.

  • I like it too. I think the reason U2 left if off the album was because it sounds a lot like Beautiful Day, which they came up with from playing this song.
