The Wanderer ( this one spoils it completely for me! The fact that its a non-U2-member vocal is just completely unbearable for me.... If only this one was replaced by HMTMKMKM....)

No The Wanderer is insanely good. Brilliant song....

if only it was sung by Bono (or even Larry, for that matter..... )

The Wanderer IS brilliant, Cash's thundering voice perfectly suits the song's persona and only serves to add to it's apocalyptic atmosphere.

The lyrics and meaning of the song also give it a depth that is the hallmark of their very best work.

I agree ....would be awesome live with the "days....days...days" bit going on for about 2 whole minutes!......and then maybe a snippet of Gone??!!?!?

Some days are dry, some days are leaky
Some days come clean, other days are sneaky
Some days take less, but most days take more
Some slip through your fingers and onto the floor
Some days you're quick, but most days you're speedy
Some days you use more force than is necessary
Some days just drop in on us
Some days are better than others

Some days it all adds up
And what you got is not enough
Some days are better than others

Some days are slippy, other days sloppy
Some days you can't stand the sight of a puppy
Your skin is white but you think you're a brother
Some days are better than others

Some days you wake up with her complaining
Some sunny days you wish it was raining
Some days are sulky, some days have a grin
And some days have bouncers and won't let you in

Some days you hear a voice
Taking you to another place
Some days are better than others

Some days are honest, some days are not
Some days you're thankful for what you've got
Some days you wake up in the army
And some days it's the enemy

Some days are work, most days you're lazy
Some days you feel like a bit of a baby
Lookin' for Jesus and His mother
Some days are better than others

Some days you feel ahead
You're making sense of what she said
Some days are better than others

Some days you hear a voice
Taking you to another place

I'll bold the connections I see

I put this on for a friend whilst driving around one night after I'd discovered it, saying, "Dude- you HAVE to check this song out- the bassline is so....nighttime-ish!" and we both sat and listened to it together- not being my first time, either, mind you- and afterwards just looked at each other and said..."Wow. That could definitely be taken in more ways than one".
