Still tink 'Wanderer' shouldve been taken off Zooropa.

[christiana]

Wanderer is my favourite song on Zooropa. In fact, it's one of my favourite U2 song!! I mean, I would love to hear a Bono version of it but this Johnny Cash version is damn good too!

Just look at the lyrics, it's so emotional. When I first heard it, the lyrics touches my heart deeply, maybe with a little bit personal emotion on it.

And I agree with sula *wouldn't change a note of Zooropa*

Maddie, I think it's great for you to create this thread. I always love to read this kind of thread and it gives me a opportunity to see what the other U2 fans think of these topics. AND, at least it's U2 related!!!

I like having "The Wanderer" on the album...it is so contrasting to the other tracks...it sticks out because of Cash's voice. I so think it would fit better with the rest of the album if Bono had done the vocals.

But that would've defeated the whole point, which I thought was to have a Johnny Cash song on a U2 record (for whatever reason--maybe just the hip-kitsch factor). It's not a U2 song. It's a Johnny Cash song. It doesn't matter who wrote it, it's a Johnny Cash song, just like "Mystery Girl" is a Roy Orbison song...or that's how I sees it anyway.

This is one of the cooler songs on any U2 album. How could you omit it??

Adam: Look guys, I got a Springfield spoon for my spoon collection.
Edge: Oh boy, here we go...
Bono: Wow, how many is that now Adam?
Adam: Nine. If I didn't have my spoons, I'd go insane.
Bono: Can I see it?
*adam gives bono the spoon, bono throws it away*
Adam: My spoon!

"Wanderer" is one U2 song I still haven't made up my mind about. Sometimes I think it's great, and other days it sounds too much like a karaoke.

 

[mad1]

I swear its like being fecked out of ur mind and afterwards being with a man aged 80 for a night.............awful!!!!!!!!

naah rock on Johnny Cash!!!! Keep stringin ur plonker......u do a good job in ur way.

I personally can't stand The Wanderer. The music sounds like ... an 80s Computer-Game. It's the only song I don't like on Zooropa. Maybe it's a joke: The deep lyrics by Johnny "The Man" Cash and the silly sound in the background.

I let the melody shine
Let it cleanse my mind
I feel free now
