U2 - Sweetest Thing
 Era:
1976-1989
  1. Ugh, it's always a bad time for me when I specifically have to go give Sweetest Thing a few listens.

    O well, at least there's Adam's phenomenal bass. Why ever did they bother rerecording this one for the single?

    Who forced you to listen to it?

    I don't dislike the studio version, but I really (and I mean really) despised it in 2015

    My “Emotions,” as I think they’re called, drove me to it. A breezy little tune with nothing but devoted heartache is sometimes just what’s needed.

    The b-side version is about the only iteration I care much for, the re-recorded single and the live versions (except perhaps one or two from 2001) do little for me.

    The crew even sabotaged the Piano-from-the-floor device more than once on I&E, but Bono didn't get the message...

    I love the song, but it seemed like a curse back then.

    LOL, indeed, they were trying their best to stop that madness but the man didn't get it

    The 2001 versions were pretty cool. Much better than 2015 that's for sure!
