Okay, I meant to quote Headache saying the miracle chorus on SOS is good. Made me like the song better.

With you on this

Right? It's obviously special to them because they didn't let us forget it through subsequent tours and now SOS. Well, as someone said, U2's gonna U2. I think they have a serious case of impostor syndrome, they believe in themselves almost as much as they doubt

Dirty Day and Miracle have caught me by surprise
