I mean it works not only musically, but it's also when Bono becomes Bono again as he washes MacPhisto away

And also the acoustic version itself: I listened to it yesterday after listening to SOE. I kind of took the perspective that the quiet parts were Paul Hewson. Singing to Ali one on one but then when he Burt’s out at the end he is Bono on stage belting out his love to the audience.
