When U2 comes to town...!!
Live in London 1988.
Keith Richards joining U2 on stage for this little rock number :)

I was a sailor, I was lost at sea
I was under the waves
Before love rescued me
I was a fighter, I could turn on a thread
Now I stand accused of the things I've said

Love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

I used to make love under a red sunset
I was making promises I would soon forget
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
But I left her standing before love came to town

I ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
The notes were turning blue, I was dazing in a dream
As the music played I saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town

When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

I was there when they crucified my Lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice when they pierced his side
But I've seen love conquer the great divide

When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

what the fuck is this guitar tone that keith richards has on this? sounds horrible

[EnglishChannel1]

I remember watching this on TV at the time, and reading a lot of media coverage about it. A fan got arrested outside for hitting a Policeman, and that is what Bono refers to at the start of the song.

I'd love to be able to say "Here's my mate, Keith Richards"

[Kenmorfdublin]

Ultimate respect, you could name as many bands on a lepers fingers that Keif would honour by his presence on stage jamming with them.
