Six o'clock
On the autoroute
Burning rubber, burning chrome
Bay of Cadiz and ferry home
Atlantic sea cut glass
African sun at last
Lights.. flash past
Like memories
A speeding head, a speeding heart
I'm being born, a bleeding start
The engines roar, blood curling wail
Head first then foot
The heart sets sail

Edge's guitar is unparalleled.

best song from the album

@wisenumb amen!

@osocalvin Thanks for your insight. Youtube should be more about that!

This is so deep, brilliant, meaningful. This is proper U2, not that sweetest thing/beautiful day nonsense they seem obliged to make (and there are more) to keep the masses happy. Their B-sides contain some of their best stuff!

For those of you wondering what is this song about, it narrates the migration movements of Arabs living in Europe and moving back to their north African countries for holidays. I live about 300kmts from the Bay of Cadiz they talk about in the song, which is the main Spanish door to go to Morocco by car ferry. When you listen to this song while driving in the highway, and see them with their old cars crowded with stuff and family, the whole thing makes sense. Brilliant and stunning.

My favorite song from the album, it was originally supposed to be the opening track and I wish they'd left it that way.
