Gonna Run 2 U
New Yorker
...is that all?
The guitar sounds like Electric Co.
This song tends to get criticised on here but I think its great. Full of frenetic energy and I love how in the last minute or so the whole thing really goes for the big climax and ends with a lonely whistle.
Bono is right, their naivety was their greatest strength in the early days, it often produced exciting and unexpected results.
Just personally, whenever I hear The Cry/Electric Co live, I always yearn for it to be a full live Is That All? and it disappoints me that it turns into Electrico.
Severely underappreciated.
C-side.
Scarlet would be a far better closing song for October.

"A Celebration" is a far better sonic match for placement on WAR than on OCTOBER...
You think so? Listen to it next to Rejoice.
Is That All? not so much. I don't know, I just feel that October's last few songs are really what make the album suffer a bit. People around here give HTDAAB so much shit, but I think HTDAAB is leagues above October, and this song is one of the reasons why.
