Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World

Maybe it's just me but this song is 100% ZooTV-ish and it should just stay there forever. Maybe because it's the weakest song on AB (if such a thing exists!) but I would rather hear 90 or 100 songs more than this

that was the trick I think, using recorded parts from fans.. so that might be why the drums sound pre-recorded. And that's why Bono was worrying about the spontanity of it all..
I agree with you on it being a typical Zoo TV song and that it should stay there.. same for Love Is Blindness although for different reasons.

I actually thought for a bit it was his album vocals sampled. Think he sounds excellent tbh, haha

He sounds good, yeah, but he sounded good almost everytime in 2010-2011 so that doesn't say much

He sounds good but his 2010 voice doesn't fit the song for me (today it would be even worse obviously).

Originally posted by Welsh_Edge:These fan-recorded things for songs are never a good idea. Remember that Ordinary Love choir thing they requested? Thank god that never happened either.

Originally posted by jick:The Kindergarten Achtung Baby version seems to have a modern Bono vocal take in it. Maybe those are circa 2010 or 2011 vocals? It surely doesn't sound like 90's to me, but that could just be me.

Cheers,
