  • Love the sound on the whole album. Probably their most 80's sounding album.

  • It's pretty amazing ... I mean, U2 songs seem to start off as these strange, "embryonic" ideas, and then they evolve into the final versions that show up on the albums. But as Bono once said, anybody who makes any kind of art like a song or a film or something, is never truly finished with it or 100% happy with it.

  • Perhaps the pitch of this whole cut is up a notch...?

    Either way, amazing stuff. Luckily, they refined this song later on. Too bad they don't play it live anymore.

  • ¡ Potente !

  • @MegaPoone This is a crappy recording though and not the way the album version sounds. Not why this song is rarely done live however. They played it extensively during the tour for this very album in the mid eighties.

  • Hate to say it but Bono's singing here sounds like he's drowning in vat of treacle or some other sugary concoction of sorts.Maybe that's why this song is rarely done live..

  • @mutigerlp - ? This statement is meaningless to me. I think the album is timeless.

  • @mutigerlp wow, that's great considering it was recorded in the 80's...wtf does your comment even mean??

  • great photo's...

  • Love it XD
