There will be tears, hands in the air, people rejoicing it’s one of they songs. Walk On wasn’t a sing along either yet possessed a lot of power live and I think this is in the same mould. Going to be a special end to the E&I shows I believe.
Which songs do you think will become famous?
I know that "You're the Best Thing About Me" is going to be one of them. I think "Get Out of Your Own Way" is going to be one of them. The biggest one of all could be "Love Is Bigger Than Anything in Its Way," but it might be that that is what the radio people are telling us. It could be something like "The Showman," something unexpected or, you know, "Red Flag Day," "Summer of Love" . . . you know, I don't know.

At the very least, this should mean that it'll have every chance to succeed live.

Also I can't recall the last time that a U2 song made me shiver and shed a tear as quickly as this one. The rest of the album is of course very good too but this song is something else and it takes me to a whole different place. And its not even that good musically or lirically... It's just one of these songs that touch you inside for no reason and never lets you go.As Alex says, it makes me wanna cry and I just don't know why.
If they played this song as the closer to their last concert ever I would be ok with it.
