And sadly the only U2 performances. Christy does play it live though.

The band did a studio version collaborating with Christy Moore.

There's also a very early version of it on the STS & Hansa Demo's from 1990/1991 - totally different lyrics - but some of the music, melody and much of the feel and 'ache' is there. There's an instrumental version and a version with lyrics - I believe it's known as 'Take Today' but when these demo's first surfaced I called it 'Walk On By' and have stuck to that.
PS love this performance too, and All I Want Is You was outstanding from this same show.

Walk on By - that's it, I couldn't recall the name of the melody. I initially heard it on the Achtung Baby demos back in 1991 I think.
