Not really a favourite of mine. It's a bit thin, musically, and at that point in their careers Bono was not very good at love songs, as this one shows. But I'll give it a solid 6.
Really a 10! Just without a doubt. Heartfelt and great. That violin is what I love the most about the music. Just not distracting and very moving.Quote from: il_capo on January 24, 2018, 12:19:50 PMNot really a favourite of mine.
