Bad

[cass]

aqueous joyous. I agree, cleansing, you can feel the fresh air when bono sings the wohooo's. Edge weaves, great great drumming, Adam's groove. They were young, but I think great musos and writers, like Bono are born. They start very very young and just have it. Lucky devils

I'm listening to it now, my God I love it too olive.

"I think the version we released was the first take -- one of those real magical moments in the studio. It was a very minimalist piece; the idea that a pattern is repeated over and over for a period of time builds to its own momentum and character." --Edge, on the recording of "Bad"

It is funny that a song called "Bad" is the greatest rock song that I have ever heard.

Simply put, it is 4 members playing their best without stealing the spotlight from one another.

this is one of u2s best live songs. i actually prefer the version on wide awake in america to the one on the unforgettable fire. i also like the fact that u2s lyrics take on multiple meanings. this song "eventhough its about drug addiction" , can mean so many different things to so many people. for me it could mean letting go fo a relationship, just like "kite".
