You know he got the cure, you know he went astray
He used to stay awake to drive the dreams he had away
He wanted to believe in the hands of love

His head felt heavy as came across the land
A dog started crying like a brokenhearted man
At the howling wind, at the howling wind

He went deeper into black, deeper into white
See the stars shine like nails in the night
He felt the healing, healing, healing, healing hands of love
Like the stars shining brightly from above

A hand in the pocket fingering the steel
The pistol weighed heavy, and his heart he could feel
Was beating Beating, beating, beating, oh my love, oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love

So the hands that build can also pull down the hands of love.


:shame:

But the album version is :yikes: compared to the live version.

Exit blows One Tree Hill away, in my opinion.

Your post is a vivid illustration of an epic fail in opinion form. :wink:
 
The live version and the studio version almost seem like different songs in my head. Live, with Edge's more prominent guitar at the start, the heavy intensity rather than brooding sinister atmosphere, and the snippets like Gloria - it's a different experience.
 
how on earth is exit losing to in gods country??

that's like putting Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da ahead of While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

Or putting Why Don't We Do It In The Road ahead of Helter Skelter.
 
Exit is losing to In God's Country...the Interland electorate fails at life :angry:
 
Really, in the end it doesn't matter because I'm guessing One Tree Hill will win, as it should. I'm preparing to be pissed off at the R&H votes though :(
 
78 votes? That seems wrong to me. I'm going to investigate previous rounds.

Edit: Investigated. Perhaps I'm just so used to the lack of votes on the Radiohead/Pink Floyd polls that it seemed high. But they're generally in the 50s to 70s.
