After hearing it a few more time with the speakers on low volume, I'm prepared to say that you really can't make the call on the song without straight up blasting it.
Also, this automatically fits into any live set they could play. Put it with the AB songs, put it with the HTDAAB songs, I just wouldn't open with it.

i wonder how many of these opinions are going to remain in the future 
I'm liking the song, it's growing on me already...
So do you guys really think this is something special?
my cousin, who is 14 years old, a casual fan, basically hates this song, and said it's one of his least favorite u2 songs....and laughs at the "sexy boots"...he just thinks it's stupid

Im loving it!! 
Did anyone else find themselves thinking about Boots in this pattern?
First listen - "hmmm, interesting, a bit like Vertigo, doesn't sound like a hit."
Couple more listens - "hmmm, actually this is much deeper and better than Vertigo, lots of layers, really nice. Too bad it won't be a huge hit among the general public."
Few more listens - "Wow, this song is fantastic. Just great. Maybe it will find an audience, though not to the same extent as Vertigo."
Few more listens - "Holy fuck this song is blowing my mind this will be the greatest hit of any band all time my face is melting when does the tour start when do i buy tickets i am going to die i am going to die!

haha, I was just thinking how little this will get played on my local...although they've been hyping it all week so we'll see. I can see regular audience backlash quieting it after a few days.
FM96? Yeah, I was thinking of them and The Edge in TO. And it may be a little too heavy/alt for poppy stations...

This is what vertigo should have been! Is it just me or does the 'let me in the song bit' at the end sound v.similar to the 'yeah yeah yeahs'?

What song has Bono growled on before? Was it Zoo in Sydney?? It's driving me nuts.

I much prefer this to Vertigo. Probably one of the most playful things they've ever done, the band sound so urgent and that chorus is great, like others have said shades of Beatles and Queen. I wasn't sure at first but its really starting to grow on me.

I think I'll be over it in a few days, but for now
Get carried away! Who cares if your opinion changes in a month. Your favourite band won't release a single as hot as this after four years of silence every day!

Catchy tune. Won't have the mass appeal that Vertigo had, I don't think. Kind of a similar tune in that it comes at you at a fast, frenetic pace. Was not a big fan of the chorus, initially, but after listening to it for the seventh time, it grew on me. Can't wait for the other songs!

Love the part where they stretch out the "you are"
there's something about it that reminds me of "Because" by The Beatles
This is killer and daring for this point in their career. The Stones were on auto-pilot well before this age
