Probably overplayed live, but still a great song. 9

7. I like it, but it's a little overplayed. I prefer the alternate version played in the R&H film.

10/10. Yes, yes yes!!! Truly brilliant in every way! Incredible riff, it's a song that has me leaping around the room like an idiot when I hear it! After 30 years I've never tired of this great track!

I was disappointed by Desire when it came out.  Seemed far worse than the singles off TJT, but I enjoyed the live version on Zoo TV.  I'll give it 6.

7. Good song from an era where, to a 9 year old kid, U2 was larger than life and the coolest guys in the planet.

Ten.

This song really took me by surprise when R&H came out, I was like "but, but, that can't be U2! They don't play that kind of song!" Shows you what I knew. Became one of my favorites, like so many other songs from that album. Just a great old fashioned rock song.
Are you tough enough to be kind?
