Maybe the most under-rated U2 track ever? I've seen it described as the Sunday Bloody Sunday of the 90s but I believe it stands alone as one of the best songs in the U2 catalogue. And the few live performances I've heard of it, despite Bono's voice problems of that era are among the best in the band's history.
Both songs have their merits but I prefer the slow-burning, simmering fury of Please to the unrestrained rage of SBS. The anguished almost-whisper of "Please, please, please, get up of your keens please.." as the song builds to its crescendo is just amazing..
