Never heard/seen this version of Sweetest Thing

YouTube - ‪U2 ATYCLB - Part 1‬‏

Near the beginning of the clip. Anyone have the full performance? Anymore footage exist? I find the post Pop/pre Elevation era pretty interesting, I'd like to see any other footage of this era too.

That's just the mini-gig they did when they won that keys to the city thing in Dublin. Sweetest Thing would have been the current single then. I'm sure the whole thing is somewhere out there.

Maybe more interesting (well, not really) is in Part II of that interview, there's a clip of them working on Stuck In A Moment, and the lyrics are "We've got to get ourselves together, we got stuck in a moment, and we can't get out of it." That's a totally different song, in terms of meaning/inspiration/story etc.

I think "We've got to get ourselves together..." is a much better lyric. The version of Stuck they went with gets on my nerves because it sounds like Bono is a know-it-all figure who is lecturing someone.
