Hmm..I think that songs like those just don't fit the current, more straightforward U2 style...I bet we will see songs like those on a U2 album again in the future.

Indiana Jones said:Mercy is unfinished. U2 need to put it away for a few months, then come back to it. Which is what they're doing. I love what I've heard, but what I hear is mainly potential, it's not finished. I can not wait until they finish Mercy, polish it up and release it, it's going to be one of their biggest hits. However, they burnt their fingers on Pop and they aren't going to make the same mistake twice, and I don't blame them.
It's NOT about playing it safe. It's about being anally-retentive perfectionists who will not settle with near-enough-is-good-enough. I love em for it.
Seriously guys, believe me when I say you'll be glad U2 held onto this one and worked on it some more.

They don't need to polish it...I don't want this song ruined by over-thinking and over-producing it.
