what they said

"The final piece of the puzzle was literally me walking into the studio one day and I had this backing vocal idea. I asked for a microphone, I jumped on a mic. I just started singing this little harmony over the chorus and then Daniel Lanois grabbed another mic. Basically, the two voices cascaded around the chorus line. And that sort of really sealed the deal." - The Edge on recording Beautiful Day, 2020

Get On Your Boots is about Bono taking his family on vacation to France and witnessing warplanes flying overhead at the start of the Iraq War. The chant "let me in the sound" was developed late in the recording sessions and became a theme throughout parts of the album.
