Very well said Musikwala.
does anyone know if the bad (live) that is on the unforgettable fire 25th remaster bonus cd is also a remastered version? or is it simply as was on the wide awake in america ep?
I think it's a remastered version of the WAIA version.

That's good enough for me.
Obviously a great recording. I don't think it was 'experimental' at all, though, from U2's perspective. There was a big gamble involved, which was their badgering Eno to come over and work with them (he refused a couple of times and tried to dispatch Lanois instead of himself.) As far as the music goes, it's not massively different from some of the War and October tracks. If you were to give the basic tracks of 'Drowning Man', 'Endless Deep', or 'Scarlet' to young Eno/Lanois to produce, they'd sound exactly like the Unforgettable Fire tracks. But hiring Eno to work with them at the point when they were set to become the new The Who / Led Zeppelin, and instead went into a unique direction, was a master-stroke.
