I don't want to praise about this when its not on the album because in my opinion its not a strong track at all. But what disapoints me is the refrain and how much of a bore it can be to listen to, i mean the opening guitar riff sounds like it should be a very promising song and it kinda sounds like a whole cry out type of song rather than a rocking song. (Obviously it is a rocking song but you know what i mean right?)
So when i first heard the song i was like ugh why did they do it this way? And i thought of a better version that to me could of been a better song all together (with a more macho bono than this bono). I meanits not like i hate his voice but let me put it this way:
- Opening guitar riff
- Bono singing (the fly voice) (all the obstacles...)
- And just before it hits the refrain the opening riff plays again but with Bono saying "are you gonna wait....forever?" without the long yelling quality to it, but rather with his fly voice.
- Also no echo of the chorus either, and sing "are you gonnna wait forever" only once instead of twice or more...
So yeah, the rest pretty much is like that, and to me a different voice gives the song a whole different look, but the song is fine the way it is too, its just me being imaginative.....and its rather hard to explain it when its in my head.
Yeah something i just had to get off me beecause i've been thinking about it for awhile now and idk i just think it sounds cooler....
