U2 The Fly

Contentious single this one. 

I remember buying it on the first day, from Dudley HMV, my clammy hands ripping at the cellophane...there had been a ban on hearing it until release date, and all us U2 fans bought it blind and deaf, hoping it was worth it.

It was worth every penny. U2 were raw, hardened by their times in the US, darker bass riffs undercut the swallow-like lead guitar, soaring and screaming to the years gone by, of the tears in the darkness, hoping for a better tomorrow...and all that Romantic shite.

Ah.

U2.

J'ai adore. Yaw pompous tw@ts.
