This is a special song to me. I know it's not terribly popular but I find it beautiful.

5- similar to the rest in the back of the album.  Nothing great or bad, just easy listening filler.

4.

It would score a bit higher if it wasn't for the abysmal lyrics.

It at least attempts to be something a bit less obvious that the rest of the shite on the album.
I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man

Lol. It actually pains me to rate it that low ... it's a lonnnnnnng story, but "grace" had a special meaning to my Dad, and he wrote a lot of essays and poems about it, and so I learned to appreciate the concept of "grace" in its many different forms. So I really wanted to like U2's take on it! But, erm, yeah ... yawn.  :)
