[one4u2]

Lately, this just became one of my favorite songs What the took me so long?!

 

[amerrydeath]

It was stuck in my head all day! I looooove Zooropa. Awesome awesome lyrics.

 

[VicksSs]

Yeah, it is so unconventional but so smart!!! I really love the lyrics.. the "what do u want" u can listen at the back is awesome!!!! Gr8 message 2.. and well, not to mention the music!!!!

 

[Zoots]

Vorsprung durch technik

 

[bonojr62]

Zooropa... Better by design

 

[miss becky]

Awesome song. I love the lyrics, especially the "And I have no compass/And I have no map/And I have no reasons/No reasons to get back." Its like Bono is telling us all that we really need to ditch our old ideas about what the band is about, and embrace this new U2.

 

[Axver]

One of the best U2 songs ever. It's amazing what they did on that song.

Rule # 1, Nobody talkes about zooropa
ah, you mean the song rules!

 

[briarrose]

Yes, this is a great song. I wrote a 9 page paper on this album and got an A on it. My professor loved it.

I LOVE that song! I once put it on after not hearing it for around a YEAR and the guitar riff at the beginning and the bass and 'atmospheric sounds' just melt together and I thought to myself "This is the greatest tune ever written!" It's THAT good. My number one U2 track!

 

[sortofhomecoming]

Great post!!! I can remember when I bought this CD right after it came out - unbelievable - nothing like playing loud and enjoying the unique sounds and just listening to the words.

Would love to hear them play it live, but I bet it would be difficult to play - since they have only played it live a few times.

 

[corianderstem]

LOVE IT. Love it, love it, love it.

 

[starvinmarvin]

By far the band's least appreciated classic.

 

[Ifeelnumb84]

the transition from "we've got that ring of confidence"....to "and i have no compass.." is amazing
and the message that "skip the subway, let's go to the overground" sends is beautiful

 

[AcrobatMan]

the song is

the rest of the album is

 

[jcool]

[LordZoo]

one of the songs that definitely got me hooked

 

[one4u2]

Be a winner.
Eat to get slimmer.
Zooropa.

I love zooropa, fly the friendly skies....That cracks me up.

 

[Nisse]

This song had a lot of potential that's for sure.

 

[MacPhistoPT]

Great song! My 2nd preference in the album after Stay

And I don't like Zooropa album...

but this song...

 

[AttnKleinkind]

We're mild and green and squeaky clean

I heart Zooropa

 

[Katrien]

"Uncertainty can be a guiding light"...my favourite quote ever

 

[Pero]

Zooooo
Don't worry baby, it'll be allright.
You got the wright shoes, it'll get you thru the night

 

[Numbology]

The whole song is a celebration of life (and ads).
Gives me chills every time I listen to it.
Definitely in my top5 of U2 songs,and it's from my favourite album.
The Holy Trinity of Zooropa : Zooropa - Lemon - Numb

'I hear voices, ridiculous voices'

Don't know why but I just love that line.

'I hear voices, ridiculous voices'

Don't know why but I just love that line.

I agree! Love the lyrics in that song.

 

[Pero]

Lyrics make no sense but ROCK SO FUCKING HARD

 

[gareth brown]

Haha! I doubt the first couple of verses are really MEANT to make sense, the third part of the song ('and I have no compass...' and so on) is bloody fantastic though, lyrically...almost as amazing as the music itself!!

 

[JulioArca]

Great song! My 2nd preference in the album after Stay

And I don't like Zooropa album...

but this song...
