This is the song that got me hooked onto U2 in the first place. The
beginning is just so...perfect...the way it gradually builds bit by bit
until before you realize it, you're listening to one of the best songs (in
my extremely biased opinion) ever written. A minor gripe - the way it was
cut both at the beginning and end on the GH album, but hey, better to be on
the album that to have been left out altogether!
One thing which frustrates me, is that I don't really know what it's about.
I remember someone posting to Wire once that the title of the song came from
a book by Jack Kerouac call "on the Road" or something like that. Is that
true? If so, I'm buying the book - I don;t really care how shit it is.
This song is one which means something special to me so whoever started this
thread...a big thanks. It's great to know that other people feel the same
way about a song that I do...
