U2's "Bad" Quite possibly a canidate for one of their greatest songs,
One of my band mates let me hear it a month ago, because we were looking for covers to fill up our setlist. When i heard it i was mezmerized we played a cover at a Gig tonight and the crowd just leaped at their feet i dunno what's about it, musically perfect from Edges Delay, to Bono's Vocals and incredible lyrics, Daniel Lanois production. Perfection.... A timeless Classic that can never get dated! I am a Rail Road, Track Abandoned

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake Wide awake I'm not sleeping Oh no 
If you really want to experience 'Bad', you have to hear it live. If anyone needs evidence that U2 is the ultimate live act of our time, all they have to do is sit in on a concert where they perform 'Bad', and if they still disagree, then they're both deaf and emotionless. The heartache, despair, and hope that Bono and the boys manage to impart on this song 20+ years later show that even if their well has creatively run dry (which I don't believe to be true), they still can do the business in a concert setting. This desparation Dislocation Separation Condemnation Revelation In temptation Isolation Desolation Let it go And so fade away To let it go, oh yeah And so fade away To let it go, oh No And so to fade away I'm wide awake I'm wide awake Wide awake I'm not sleeping oh no no I'm the first mammal to wear pants. | |

The version at Live Aid was great. "The first time I saw the cover of Dirty Mind in the early 80s I thought, 'Is this some drag queen ripping on Freddie Prinze?'" - Some guy on The Gear Page | |
