@tokolosj Whatever man...It's too bad your musical preferences are influenced by the social impact of its performers...For me, it's just about the music and I have to say this is a great cover. However, I think thar U2's version is way better...Pure simple truth
Cheers

@etiel94 they talk about animal and human rights, talk about war and peace, pollution and green forest, and so on, it's like u2 were the final dream of every big fat ugly mother in law.

A real unique band.
They are really helping to keep the substance and progression in UK music scene.
Them and cats like Radiohead, PJ Harvey, Tricky, Ian Brown, Massive Attack,
Gary Numan, Anna Calvi, Ghost Poet, Jamie Woon, Scroobius Pip,
James Blake, AllFlaws

being a U2 fan does not impede me to acknowledge the beauty of Elbow's version-both share the lyrics but the arraignments of each one are unique. this one in particular takes the song to a new and different level- just spectacular to listen quietly...
