"In A Little While" is among U2s most perfect songs - melodically beautiful, properly soulful, sonically adventurous and emotionally powerful... What more do you want! "Summer Rain" is throwaway trash, completely lacking in any depth as a lyrical or musical piece. It's also very badly recorded - Bono sounds horrific!
Anyway, as you probably realize, I really don't like "Summer Rain"! Just my opinion tho, I'm glad that it brings joy to some people ;-)
I agree 100%
