Well done, Trevor. I've never heard this song before and I'm not a fan of their later material, but I liked this version.

Thank-you.

This was the closing song on "The Joshua Tree".

The album recording is so subtle and under-stated that it doesn't even register to many people.

The original is beautiful as it is.  I just had an urge to strip it down and bring it into the foreground a bit.

I don't think Bono does "subtle" anymore.
