I'm really impressed with how U2 reinvented themselves in such a dark, edgy (no pun intended) way on this album and song. They'd done aggressive songs before ("Bullet The Blue Sky" being chief among them), but they sound utterly convincing here. I get a strong Jesus and Mary Chain vibe in the guitar texture and the mixing (probably due to Flood's involvement.) I'm glad it was an Alternative Number One 👍🏻.

The secret ingredient that makes this great recording even better - that tambourine. Try imagining what it would sound like without it.

''every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief. All kill their inspiration & sing about their grief'' the best line in U2 discography & one of the best ever

This song should've been included in U218, The Best Of 1990-2000 (as the main track), and other U2 compilations to come.

Wish City of Blinding Lights was on U218...The song with Green Day isn't very good, even if it was for charity.

Edge shows a different take on the guitar solo here and it never fails to give me goosebumps.

The ZooTV live footage of this is amazing. These guys take stagecraft to a whole new level for rock.

First time when I heard this song... there is something like 'every poet is a thief' and I thought he sings 'every POLE is a thief'... and my face looked like 'HAHHAHAHAHAHA'. xDD
