And I, for one, would love to tell the original poster how I really feel, but I don't fancy getting banned.

The lyrics are amazing, and Bono has some brilliant moments on the song, but it could have sounded so much better. I recall U2 once describing how difficult "Streets" was to produce. I get the same feeling here.

Frankly, I don't have a clue what you are talking about. I reiterate my previous opinion: there is nothing wrong with COBL. I think it's now my favourite song on the record and I wouldn't want them to change anything. Bono's voice sounds fantastic, the instruments are beautiful and come together wonderfully, the chorus is anthemic and rousing, and the whole song is epic on the level of Streets or Bad.
This is a U2 classic for the ages.

akhan01 said:The live BBC version of this song sounds better than the album version. Bono sounds a bit tired throughout the song, and his voice isn't in sync with the music at all. The song sounds patched together, and the bridge is awful.
