So, I found Native Son on the internet somewhere, I forget where...and I think I like it better than Vertigo (and I'm a pretty big fan of Vertigo). It could be just me, but I was wondering if anyone else felt the same way. I like the part where he holds out the word "free" for an insanely long time while Edge goes back into the chorus riff better than the "all of this, all of this can be yours" part of Vertigo, I think that's probably the biggest part for me...
Anywho, yeah, just wondering what other people's thoughts on this were.
Well, some further research on "Native Son" will lead you to discover that it's based off the novel of the same name, which I found to be a good read. I personally like Native Son better than Vertigo because it makes sense lyrically, and the sound is less radio-generic.
i was blown away when i heard native son for the first time.....in my opinion both native son and vertigo could have both been on the album....they are both brilliant and captivating......roll on the remaster
