Cool instrumental Achtung Baby B-Side.  Its one to throw on to cleanse the pallet of AMERICAN SOUL.  Like a weird U2 Saltine.  I guess it gets a

4- it's a more of a footnote than an actual song in my mind.  Technically is it even U2?  Yes it was released as a b-side but wasn't it something that only Bono and Edge did together?
Either way, nothing too special about it.

9. I've always adored this one. The soundscape Edge creates is amazing.

I always liked this one, although I don't consider it "real" U2, or even a "real" song. It's just a neat sounding tidbit which I'm happy to run across every once in awhile, but could thrive without. 7.
Are you tough enough to be kind?

This song is how I imagine a U2 Rock Musical SHOULD have sounded. Of course it came from the Clockwork Orange soundtrack, which never saw the light of day.
