Throwback Sinatra tribute . . . More of a theatrical number.  U2 having fun being something else.

6- like the song but too subdued to be a signature u2 track.  would have loved to hear sinatra actually sing it as intended.

It's never clicked with me. Bono has never excelled as a crooner. I'm glad his days of Sinatra impersonation are behind him.

I would like an entire U2 Blues/Jazz album. Any time they have veered into this territory, I have loved it.

It's decent enough as songs go, just not something I can get invested in.
Are you tough enough to be kind?

Never let me go for example is a song i think is terrific - i know it isn't u2 of course but you get my drift.
