Totally disagree. I love the chorus
You won't 6 months from now. You'll be bored of it.

And of words to drop why the hell did he drop the word 'to' and not 'a' at least "happened to Boy" could've been some play on words with the album Boy and even if not it sounds a hell of a lot better than "happened a boy"
No. "happened a boy" is worse. At least "Happened to boy" is somewhat of a coherent sentence and in fact easier to say.

Love the song at its core, but I WAY prefer the Kygo mix. The swirling "be bop ee doh," or whatever the hell he says, vocal mix was just about the best thing I've heard from U2 in years. It's utterly irresistible and made them sound like a modern dance band. The world would've been floored. Really wish that U2 still had the balls to release a song like that to radio.
Geez guys this lyric is getting way over analised. The current lyric is fine.
For anyone interested at all, I've done a very crude cut that adds the pre-chorus of the Sci-Fi mix into single version. The timing is slightly off because, well, I can't be bothered any more.
I did this mainly because I think the biggest issue with the song is that Edge's riff going form that section of the song has neutered the build-up portion. Anyway, feel free to listen:

What's the Sci-Fi mix everyone is talking about? Where can I listen to it?
Can you imagine if the lyric was:
'Frozen at the ATM machine a boy, Roy'?
We would shut the fucking internet down.
We never do that around here Fred,Ned,Jack,Zack. Oh and freedom does indeed have a scent like a new born baby's head!!
That may be a bit lofty, but I hope so! Maybe by 11 or 12 at night, they may get there. I would think the Fallon perormance will give it a boost for a couple days after that.
Glad to see it's getting some attention. hope radio grabs it.
U2 released two versions for radio adds. The main single mix (on streaming and iTunes) and a more ambient/relaxed version called the Sci-Fi Soul Mix.
Both are listenable on this page: U2 “YOU’RE THE BEST THING ABOUT ME” | See and Hear What's Popular on Radio This Week
But here's a direct (more reliable link) to just the Sci-Fi Soul Mix file: http://playiga.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/U2-Youre-The-Best-Thing-About-Me-Sci-Fi-Soul-Mix.mp3
Oh my god, no.I've halfway convinced myself that "a boy" is a reference to ABOY, as in, "you're the best thing that happened (all because of you)"
Anyone think Ned is the best thing about Fred?
Don't you think views would temper off after the initial announcement/press day? I don't see how that many views could be accumulated between now and then.
YouTube views is actually a bit disappointing. We need to wait until 24-48 hours after Fallon to see if there is a bump
