Great singing!
It's like Roy Orbison doing U2.

I like, £16 was a steal!

I think you sound (at times) a bit like Ian Astbury!!

This a hugely under rated U2 song, but it probably didn't help that it was on the Rattle and Hum album which was not critically acclaimed, but for me it had some gem's on it, with this being one.

Loved your version, such a cool vocal and your £16 guitar sounded very rich.

Fantastic job!

Simple but very musical.  A well-presented and creative interpretation, with feeling.

Fantastic Reg, one of my favs by U2 as well (got a 7" special edition vinyl somewhere in the garage...the wife will know where it is, I have no idea!), great vocal, I still wish I had your voice, and... where the hell do you get a guitar for £16 (€17/ $20)?

loved it

I was going to bid on an expensive Italian guitar on ebay but after asking advice on here i decided not too and then i spotted a black Encore so i put a bid in for £20 and got it for £16 i had to drive to Glossop to collect it but all in all with the petrol couldn't have cost more than £25 tops...a bargin.......always worth looking at the Pick up only things people can't be arsed to travel so they always go cheap.......bugger that was one of my secret buying ploys....don't tell anyone............
