BUT THE B-SIDE I HAVE TO LAST NIGHT IS POP MUSIK!!!!!!!!!!

:no:

The Last Night on Earth single was released in various formats. I guess the one you have is missing Happiness is a Warm gun.

BTW, there are 2 different mixes of this track. There is the Gun Mix and the Danny Saber Mix (???) Hope that helps.

peace.

Hmm, I've never heard "Happiness is a Warm Gun" described as "Western" before. There's the intro, which sounds like lethargic, drug-induced rock. There's the bridge, with the fuzzy guitar. And there's the doo-wop parody in the last verse. But Western?
 
The closest thing you'll get to live is that they used the riff from their cover of Happiness is a Warm Gun on live performances of Miami on the popmart tour.
 
U2's cover/remixes of "Happiness is a warm gun" may just be their most odd, disposable, and interesting songs they've ever done. A throw-away but still entertaining.
