Pretty good, I guess I like it more than the original.

The second half of this is so much better!

I don't know what to say, so I'll say:

A different take is always worth hearing.

Yup. It's different indeed.

I went to see the movie on it's première night and once the song came on the credits, there definitely was that extra "are we tough enough" refrain from the bridge with some extra Bono howling and band music before it ends, VERY unlike the quick fade out of the original song.

Shame the band didn't release ^THIS^ as the real version of the song cause it sounded pretty decent.

It very well might be released with the official soundtrack.

Nothing wrong with this remix. Upon first listen I even would say this remix sounds more like U2 than the original version from the soundtrack.

Cool mix, like it better than the original. It is more upbeat.

I don't like the lyrics nor the music more than the original, but I reckon it's more uplifting musically.

It is a bit messy, but definitely more uplifting.

I think the weight and atmosphere is totally lost in the remix. It's not really a song that can be turned into a dance song IMO. It just sounds like some kid did it in their room with garage band.

Maybe I'Il be less enthusiastic in a couple of days but right now I hope the sound of the new album is close to this new mix! Sounds up-to-date and inspired. Totally love it. Much better.

Do you guys think it is still produced by Danger Mouse, just mixed by Epworth?

Original version wasn't produced by Danger Mouse.
