Volcano vs American soul

THIS IS NOT A "I CANT BELIEVE THEY REUSED THE SOLO FOR THE CHORUS THREAD"

Discuss American Soul vs volcano. Which song is stronger? Which do you prefer?

I like volcano more. The bass is amazing and really stands out.

American Soul for sure. Volcano with much more added to the mix essentially.

Shouldn't these kind of threads have a *Spoiler Alert!* attached?

Hearing the sameness of the chorus was a disappointment I was waiting until the album release for.

Volcano is so much better. It has more energy and feels much more focused.

I like both a reasonable amount, but I can't decide. Volcano is a stronger song, but American Soul has Refujesus!

I think American Soul. It's much better, the verses (melody), guitar. But I miss the bass (drums and bass ::) ) and I'm a bit sick about the American stuff. I'm not an American and the only reason I would go there is for the the Grand Canyon and those parks around and Alaska (or Canada).

American Soul just tears through the first 2 minutes.   Volcano at times has a baseline like early R.E.M.

While I like the melody in the verses of American Soul, the song overall is weaker than Volcano IMO.

Sorry. But don't you think you should've stayed out of a thread comparing a new song to an old one? The title doesn't mention them reusing it. I could've put miracle vs Summer of love.

Well that's something to look forward to then.

Volcano. Neither are especially good, with both suffering from some troubling lyrics, but Volcano is overall a superior all-around track.

American Soul. It's got more attitude. Volcano is often a skip song for me. American Soul is simply more interesting and powerful to my ears.

American Soul.  For me it's tighter, fiercer, more on point.  I would never have made heads or tails of Volcano lyrically if I hadn't read Bono's explanation.
