Better than all but one track off of Joshua Tree, not sure why all the hate.
Trolling?

Originally posted by cookoman:1 star from me and this is potentially the worst U2 song ever released and I'd rather listen to the recent video circulating of Larry singing at his birthday over this.

So you’re admitting to having poor taste? I really like the song but it’s not better than half of ATYCLB imo, particularly New York and Walk On since you listed them. The other 3 I’ll give you, and I’d add in a little while and elevation but that isn’t quite half of the album.

Haha. So we at least agree on a few of them!
In all seriousness, U2 have been writing schmaltzy stuff like this since 2000. I can totally understand people disliking this new song but not so much if they rate ATYCLB as one of their better albums. Honestly, what is the difference between a song like Your Song Saved My Life and Peace On Earth? Both nothing too special musically speaking, and lyrically a mix of sentimentalism plus some pretty hard-hitting stuff when you really listen in.
Maybe I'm just stirring the pot but would love to hear other thoughts.
