U2 also feature on "Testimony" on Robertson's self titled solo album. I like it, and recently picked it up on vinyl. Album is produced by Daniel Lanois. U2 also contributed to Daniel Lanois's Acadie around this time, which is also a nice record.

She said, "Why do you always wind up down at Nick's cafe?"

I said, "I dunno, the wind just kind of pushed me this way."

She said, "Hang the rich."


Listen as Hope and Peace try to rhyme,
Listen over marching bands playing out their time.

i had no idea about these songs minus Testimony which i had labeled as a Bono solo song i found in like 01. Sweet Fire of Love is SO R&H and i love it. I quickly added it to my R&H playlist.

Thanks for this reminder.  I haven't heard "Sweet Fire of Love" in twenty years.  Good stuff.
