I can say it's a grower after getting over the whiplash of hearing such a straightforward pop song from U2.
This was always akward
Where you see those?
Getting multiple plays on Spectrum and Alt Nation on SiriusXM.
I did enjoy it more in the car then here on my 'puter.
Found yet another positive review... this one from USA Today. Haven't seen a single negative review from a critic yet. Has anyone else?
Here's USA Today's:
Despite 2017's tumultuous political climate, it's not all doomsday and darkness for U2 these days.
On Wednesday, the group shared You're the Best Thing About Me, their lead single from their forthcoming album Songs of Experience, the follow-up to 2014's release Songs of Innocence.
You're the Best Thing About Me is a glittering arena-rock anthem with a touch of wistfulness, seeing Bono and co. celebrating love while grappling whether to walk away. Despite its undertones of heartbreak, the song is still more upbeat than The Blackout, another new song U2 shared last week, which features deliberately-political lyrics including, "A dinosaur, wonders why it's still on the earth / A meteor, promises it's not gonna hurt" and "Statues fall, democracy is flat on its back / We had it all, and what we had is not coming back."

Listening to your favorite band's song over is one thing...Listening to your favorite band's song over and over is what fans do. It's a good line above-- but it's bogus.
I can' listen to Get On Your Boots for 100 years and never say it's a grower.
But I think the point was more the group think syndrome when I you know some shitty music and shitty tv shows and Oscar nominated movies are bad -- but 1 big time reviewer says it's "great" and the sheep follow afraid to admit they didn't like a movie, a song or a TV show.
So far I loved the D J mix more -- but this song has 3 or 4 amazing parts. I just don't know if they flow together and shouldn't be in 3 separate songs.
NEW FUN GAME TIME:
The Best Thing About Me -- My small penis
This. A thousand times this.re those pictures
Someone please tell Bono to go back to the aviators. They are eons better than those stupid little things he's got planted on his face now.

Same, the hate really baffled me, and can't get my head around people enjoying the kygo version over it
Lastly, the band really ignored the dynamics that the Kygo version really thrived on.
Ryan Tedder?This and California sound like songs written for other artists.
Like, I can't wait to hear the Chris Martin/Katy Perry duet of California at some U2 tribute show.
You're The Best Thing sounds like it could be sung by (insert name of male pop star of the moment).

Ryan Tedder?
Are my eyes deceiving me or is it actually the Number 2 song on the iTunes Hot Tracks chart right now? Damn.
WHICH IS IT PEOPLE?!?!?
Please please do...No thanks, I've already eaten.
(I may now know what you refer to...off to google)
Please please do...
I'm dying to hear your response

As a general rule, always side with me.
Funny thing that there are so many complaints about how this song was tinkered with, yet no one can actually say they heard the original, and beach clips don't count.
Also, maybe it was tinkered with, but I don't think it sounds overcooked.
Listening to your favorite band's song over is one thing...
Listening to it 30 times in a row on repeat is another.
And yes, some or you did that this morning. You know who you are..
